Cool Re: does the 1.2 have a variator

Most dealers are now using a wide range 5w 40 in most engines dispite it not being suitable for some of them..

you can check which you need on the selenia site and you should be using 20K in yours

Re: does the 1.2 have a variator

should be a selenia 20k oil but theres only one way to know for sure.

Drain it and and refil it.

It did it again today, after driving 50/60 miles, stopped a co-op bought a bottle of pop, started car, slightly rough tickover then normal.

You can feel this extra vibration on the car as well, which is whats making me think water pump

Re: does the 1.2 have a variator

quite tempted now to get an oil change done, even though only just done, just to make sure the oils the right one.

got to add drove 90 miles yesterday, stopped and started warm a couple of times and no issues, same again today. Strange.

Surely, all you have to do is ask your dealer what they used

Re: does the 1.2 have a variator

might call in later today and check with the service manager. There are selenia adverts all over the service part though so should be using that
