Tony, my car does the same, as does every selecta i have ever known, its a trait of the CVT (my mams old volvo 340 CVT did the same). If your looking for advice, i have always found that King transmissions (i think thats the name) are fabulous

Well, it's also because unlike torque converter auto boxes the panda's got a clutch which can make it a bit 'on' or 'off' power giving the odd jerk...
I still say change the fluid and filter....

Well i was a little concerned it was unusual... but i can live with it... but if a new filter/oil will make it smoother thani think i may have it serviced at manchester... £50 seems like a bargain to avoid developing neck muscles like Mike Tyson...e505jpy said:
The Oil is Tutela CVT Universal (the old OiliFiato stuff)
The gasket is part no 9942867 £ 8.62 (not including VAT)
The Filter is part no 9945540 £62.02 (not including VAT)
See the next person that says pandas are really cheap to run... Mmmm
You'll probably find that it's never been done cause of those prices.

A new gearbox filter for the 5lt BMW is £19 from BMW

Thankfully all the best bits of my selecta (in other words not that bloody box!!!) are ending up in Sylvia. Steve and I are going to swap the interiors round some weekend!

I got Benfield Fiat in Newcastle to replace the CVT filter and gasket at about 55000 miles (i think), and that cost me around £120 all in (was supposed to be about £180).
To Alan D.
"Every thing about the box is expensive" if you go by Fiat IPER prices. The belt for the auto box is quoted at £700 but if you contact JPAT in Bristol they supply them ( the same item not a cheap copy ) for £199. That may seem a lot but you should see one of those belts, they are a work of art.
What is a rip off, is the prices of the oil, gasket and filter !

Tony Picked the engine up this morning.....unfortunately the pics are crap I'll take better ones later.
I had batton (officer safety) training yesterday had to move 2 huge organs (piano type things) to the tip this morning and lift the the engine into the back of the Panda. I can't think of a muscle or part of my body that isn't F***ing Knackered.

I've trimmed it Tony it's a 1997 engine but can't find the part no or engine No. Overall it looks very good, Valve & valves stems are very clean no sign of gunging.
