Morning All,

I purchased a 2013 Fiat 500L Trekking 1.3 MultiJet on Tuesday for my wife as her BMW 1 series was coming to the point where maintaining was worth more than the car. Found the Fiat on line and was impressed with the space inside when I went to view. It is a fully repaired Cat N however there are a few little niggles here and there to be sorted which I look forward to. I always buy the diagnostic cable for any car I have so I can interrogate any faults and repair myself. Naturally I turned to google looking for the best package and that is when I cam across this forum. I read a thread about the MultiECUScan kit so I have purchased this one https://www.gendan.co.uk/product_FESPKG.html which will be here tomorrow.

I've been on the hunt for a service manual (Haynes only do the online one which i have heard negative thoughts about) with no luck so far. I need to know what oil etc is best so I can complete a full service and get a full list of all torque settings to satisfy my OCD so I'll keep searching.

Anyway, enough of my ranting, I look forward to interacting on here and hopefully in time being able to offer support to other newbies once I've learned and gained experience.

All the best
