I notice I dident get any sort of service record book with my TA - should I have? I would have though there would be a book for intervals / stamps etc? Also it mentions in the manual that there is a card with the keycode info on it - I dident seem to get this either, is it normally included?

General Service Book?
Yes you should of been given all documents etc.: relating to service books at the handover ,ring your dealer?
In the UK the keycode is not supplied for security reasons, service section is normally at the back of one of the handbooks rather than a separate booklet in itself.
Well there's a service schedule in the handbook alright but nowhere to record history or have it stamped etc.
You should have a service book, it should already be stamped for the pdi
yeh I would have thought so, thanks. I'll check it out tomorrow, probably just dident get put back in the car.

Not sure about that. I got mine along with key pattern code. Also all the vans / chassis cabs we use at work come with this information. In the event of keys required the dealer will charge to recover the numbers. I could be wrong though.

Maybe was but I'm sure its an industry standard to supply all info. I got it 12 years with my new Saxo Vts.
I got it we when bought our new Astra (57 Reg)
And we got it this time.
I know when we bought the Diesel sport we didn't get a key / numbers but that was part of the deal - NO SPARE KEY NO CAR.
And the handbook states we should get it.
I don't understand why / who says I cant have all the bits to my car!

My apologies. Your right. The importer is supposed to remove them. The chassis cabs / panel vans are all the same as well. Learn something new everyday. Crazy thing is vauxhall let you.
So my dealer told me yesterday that Fiat are no longer issuing service books with new cars and its all done on-line now! He said he could print me out records if I wanted them! Anybody else come across this or is he telling porkies?

Oops. Registered September 2013.
As others have said, you should have a service book for garage servicing stamps, but the latest handbook for your particular model is available from here:

Sounds blooming barmy to me. So if you buy the car second hand you have to trust the seller its been serviced correctly? These stupid decisions by companies middle management ultimately mess up the product. If fiat are doing this its not helping their product.
