Help engine rattle

However I guess your car was not just six months old. I'll take it to the dealer and even if they say there is no problem I will insist on an oil change and maybe change the oil filter too, hopefully they will listen

Just take it to the dealer, you aren't going to listen anyway ;).

Enjoy you trip out as I'm giving up my Seicento cos... It's crap (falling to bits) and the dealers are crap. Mine is a 2001 Sei with 17500 miles on the clock. Dodgy clutch, 20mpg (if I'm lucky) and a whole host of other problems.

Fiat want.... wait for it.... £600 for parts and labour AND I have 1 year to run on warranty, I can't be bothered arguing this out with them as this has been going on far to long, they have been s**te all along :(

You're using oil thats too thin. The SD1 engine only runs about 30psi oil pressure max and was never designed for thin oil- try some 15w-40 in it!
