Hi my stilo abarth has Been smoking blue smoke on some start ups and warning of low oil pressure at low revs, now some knocking has started from the engine, also had a couple of stuck in neutrals and had to reset by removing battery for 15 mins help pls
 
Cant help much, only what id read on here years ago that the 2.4 had a weak crankshaft design or something like.
Search for big end knock or similar im sure i remember seeing something about excess play pushing and pulling on crank pully.
Blue smoke on start up id guess at worn valve guides or seals unless related to knocking, if started same sort of time.
If well serviced and correct oil grade being used(not too thin) search more.
Hopefully some of the abarth boys will see this soon.
 
I have only been getting 20mpg driving steady if am lucky, if this helps
