Lancia Ypsilon

The supermini, and for most of a decade the only Lancia in production anywhere — sold almost exclusively in Italy, where it remained a volume car throughout. Mechanically a Fiat 500 and Panda relative, engines included, so the TwinAir two-cylinder's unusual idle and the Dualogic robotised manual both apply: the gearbox is a clutch and an actuator rather than a torque converter, and its codes read nothing like an automatic's.

Information, not instruction

CarGeek is a reference, not a service manual. Its pages are written from public sources and from what other people have found, never from a manufacturer's own service information, so they can be wrong or incomplete for your particular vehicle. Some of what they describe carries real risk: high voltage, fuel under pressure, stored energy, hot and moving parts.

Have anything you intend to act on checked by a trained person against the manufacturer's own procedure for your vehicle. Nothing here replaces that procedure.

What makes one worth reading:

  • The car — make, model, year and engine. The same fault behaves differently on each.
  • What you measured, not only what you replaced.
  • What actually fixed it — or that nothing did, which is worth knowing too.
