2015 Fiat 500L Questions & Answers

  • What happens if I "ride" my Fiat's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Fiat? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small it is. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your 500L’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • When should I have my 500L's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Fiat 500L transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Fiat. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Fiat 500L? Yes, your Fiat 500L can develop a transmission fluid leak.
