Hi there, I have just brought a seicento, SX, on a y plate for my lad to learn to drive in.
I have a few questions,
1) there appears to be no dipstick, where it would go into the sump, it appears to be plugged. Where should it be?
2) car pulls to left, so I took it to garage where I was advised wrong tyres, bearing in rear wheels shot, and wrong size tyres fitted. In changing the bearing, there was only one washer, below the nut, is this right?
3) what is the right size tyres?
4) Is there a workshop book for this?
Many thanks for looking at this newbie quest.

The washer is integral to the nut - there should only be that!

Is there a workshop book for this?

Nope. The Fiat Technical Manual's in the downloads though, that's fairly good. Can always resort to the Cinq Haynes book if needed.
