C3 1.2 PURE TECH ENGINE OIL

Unread post by LucianC3 »

I need urgent help as I have to change the engine oil.
Very confused. I done it once and get confused now : B71 2312 or B71 2010 ?
First time I bought Shell 0W30 B712312.
Any advice will be much appreciated.

Car details : C3 1.2 Pure Tech automatic
2022 manufacturing year. Around 26000 miles.

Have a read of this topic, viewtopic.php?t=70648&hilit=oil&start=15 part way down page 2 is this link to clubopel which has a bulletin from Stellantis on oil specs. If your engine type is listed you might need to use oil spec 5W30 OIL FPW9.55535/03

Your engine type is found in the letters in your car vin.

I am not sure about timing belts on Puretech engines but you might need to check it each service and replace it quite frequently.
