Hello folks!

My partner has just bought a 63 plate Fiat 500L MultiJet Lounge 1.3 D and was told the car uses a chain by the dealership that sold it to her.

I'd just like to double check here with the people in the know to see if this is true or not. I've looked around online but haven't found anything conclusive yet.


Also its missing one of the chrome surrounds for the rear offside tail light cluster. Is there a good place to get these from?

Dealer is correct 1.3 multijet engine is is chain driven as long as it serviced on-time you should have no issues allthough personally I wouldn't go more then 12k between oil changes rather then the official 18k

Thank you Chris,

That's a relief. I doubt it'll ever do 12000 in a year and I plan to make sure its kept serviced once a year. It's only done 38K but being 7 years old it if it had a belt I needed to know.

I'm grateful for the info. I'm sure I'll be asking all kinds of things as time goes by.

My next task is to replace the rear tail light cluster.
