Does anyone here know when the Dualogic (automated) gearbox version is due? I gather that it will only be available on petrol engines, not the diesel, which seems curious.

1.2 production starts in April, 1.4 16v in May.

There is a MultiJet Dualogic coming on Grande Punto and Bravo this year, but as yet no official news of it coming on the 500.

I've already got mine, picked it up on Sunday its a black 1.2 sport. However it's already in the garage as when its in auto mode the delay between the shift and forward motion is dangerous all this and only 200 miles.

When I use manual mode its fine couldn't be happier. When I press the E button in auto mode it seems to be a little better sometimes though it just will not change from 2nd to third unless you rev it near the red line which I don't want to do after 200 miles

Now when I manually shift without lifting my foot from the acelerator this is when the shifts are smoothest.... whats that all about?

Also bubbles under the paint in the passenger door.... not very happy to be honest

Have you ever driven a dualogic before?

Just realised this should be the other way round...

...which makes that a little difficult to understand!
