General Fiat Ducato 2011 owners manual for PDF download

[wanderer 888]

Hello there,
I have been trying to locate online and in this forum, a Fiat Ducato 2011 owners manual for PDF download, as I wish to print it out into a physical book that I do not have to go online for.

But my searches so far have not been successful. The complete manual is available in scroll-able PDF online - which several websites have, but no provision for simply clicking on the whole PDF for download.

Any tips or links would be appreciated!

That's May 2011 (if you need earlier, I can amend).

The Fiat eLum site allows for download of most manuals, but I can't (only a quick check) find how to register (I have an old login).

Looks like it's also available in Portugese.

It occurs to me that 2011 was the year in which there was a (mild) facelift, so there might be minor differences in the manuals depending on whether your vehicle was built before or after. I simply selected a mid-2011 edition.

If you want to be (more) sure of the correct manual, if you "message" me your VIN number, I can call up the correct manual (or at least, the one Fiat associate with it) from that.

Yes mine is Oct 2011, there may have been changes in things like varying shades of white paint which I cannot find the exact match for in the stores for touch up paint. Will message you thanks!

Message with some other manual download options (it wasn't straightforward ) sent.

Hi everyone, I would really love some help with my Fiat Ducato 130, motor home, it’s a 2011, with 42k on the clock, I’ve had it now 13 months and it’s an absolute dream, the engine purrs, it’s like a new van to drive, honestly, very well looked after by previous owners, my question is when should I start looking at a cam belt change? People say 70k or 5 years, I’m convinced the previous owners would of done it, but I’ve no way of knowing??? I now it’s a BIG job and expensive, but I don’t want to have it done, if it’s already been done, I’ve tried looking at the belt underneath the engine but can’t really see it all, honestly my engine is AMAZING and I’m worried it won’t be the same once the belts been changed due to how much the engine has to be stripped down to change it, any thoughts on what you would do in my situation?? Please help

I have exactly the same van with a similar mileage when I bought it. I just had the belt done at 115,000 and the mechanic is pretty certain it had not been done before. The old belt and water pump were in reasonable condition - but better for peace of mind to have it done than pay alot of money to fix the engine! 650 euros in my case.

With yours only averaging 3,230 km's per year, I am guessing that you could get away with not doing a belt change. In my case, the van was bought at 65,000 km's, meant an average of 5,000 km's/year. But then I did extensive travel and put on an extra 55,000 in 18 months, so was not going to take the risk. The van runs well since the belt and pump change, exactly like it did before.

The recommendation for Ducato timing/cam belt change is every 5 years irrespective of mileage so if you don't know its been done in the last 5 years the only safe course is to do it now.
Unfortunately you can't examine it properly without so much stripping down you might as well change it anyway.
Changing the water pump on a Ducato is not part of Fiat recommendation, and unless something is obviously amiss is best left alone IMO
Because changing the water pump is a much bigger job than most people realise and the only problems I have heard of with Ducato water pumps have been after the water pump has been changed.

Hi,
I did my own cam belt and ancillary belts change at home om my drive.
It's not difficult if you are mechanically minded.
It took me a day and a half going slowly, and cost around £160 all in using Gates belts

Hi Guys, I’ve got a fiat Ducato 130, roller team motor home, which I have on my driveway, I’m just wondering, is it better to keep the motor home on hook up, through the winter? I do have solar panels on the roof that provide a trickle charge, and I keep my fridge and lights off, when not in use, or is it best just to put on hook up now and again, say every few weeks for 48hrs, just to boost the leisure battery. Also I’ve just watched a vlog on YouTube where someone turns his isolation switch on the leisure battery off, every time he’s on hook up? I’ve never done that, and my battery are fine, can anyone give me suggestions/thoughts or what they do?
