Looking for a replacement Fiat engine?

Free to submit · No obligation to buy

Engine Finders UK Ltd, which operates EngineCode.uk, can pass your enquiry to engine suppliers in the UK. The service is for vehicles in the United Kingdom, with UK delivery or fitting. This is a commercially connected service, and sending an enquiry does not confirm diagnosis or compatibility.

Diagnostic reminder: If a technician has recommended replacing the engine, you can send an enquiry to engine suppliers in the UK. Confirm the diagnosis first: an engine-code record does not diagnose a fault.

Common Reliability Issues - FIAT E-ULYSSE Compatible Models

Field reports and technical service bulletins highlight component wear patterns under high-load operation. Adherence to manufacturer service intervals and approved fluid specifications is critical for long-term reliability.

Battery capacity degradation over time
Symptoms: Gradual reduction in maximum driving range, longer charging times for full capacity, reduced regenerative braking efficiency.
Cause: Normal electrochemical aging of lithium-ion cells, accelerated by frequent DC fast charging, consistently charging to 100%, and exposure to high ambient temperatures.
Fix: Follow Stellantis charging guidelines: use AC charging for daily top-ups, limit DC fast charging, avoid storing at 100% or 0% state of charge for extended periods.
12V auxiliary battery failure
Symptoms: Vehicle won't start (‘Ready’ state), multiple warning lights on dashboard, loss of infotainment/radio, central locking failure.
Cause: The 12V lead-acid battery powers vehicle electronics and can fail due to age, parasitic drain, or infrequent use, similar to ICE vehicles.
Fix: Replace the 12V battery with the correct OEM-specified AGM type. Ensure the vehicle is driven or plugged in regularly to maintain charge.
Heat pump or cabin heater inefficiency
Symptoms: Slow cabin warm-up in cold weather, reduced driving range when heating is used, ‘Climate System Fault’ warning message.
Cause: Malfunction in the heat pump system (if equipped) or resistive heater elements, or software glitches in the climate control module.
Fix: Diagnose using Stellantis diagnostic tool. May require software update, component replacement (heater matrix, heat pump), or refrigerant recharge per OEM procedure.
Tire wear due to vehicle weight
Symptoms: Uneven or accelerated tire wear (especially front tires), reduced handling precision, increased road noise.
Cause: The significant weight of the battery pack increases load on tires, leading to faster wear if tire pressures are not meticulously maintained or if aggressive driving is common.
Fix: Check and adjust tire pressures to OEM specifications weekly. Rotate tires every 10,000 km. Use high-load-index tires designed for EVs when replacing.

FIAT E-ULYSSE FAQ Common Questions Answered

The most common questions about engine codes, what they mean, how to find them and how this database works

Early data suggests good long-term reliability for the core electric drivetrain (motor, gearbox). The primary long-term consideration is battery health, which degrades naturally but is slowed by following proper charging habits. The 12V battery is a common wear item. Overall, BEVs have fewer moving parts than ICE vehicles, potentially leading to lower mechanical failure rates.

The most common issues relate to the 12V auxiliary battery failing, gradual high-voltage battery capacity loss if mismanaged, and occasional software glitches affecting the infotainment or climate control. Tire wear can also be accelerated due to the vehicle's weight. These are documented in Stellantis service information bulletins.

The e-Ulysse is Fiat's only large electric MPV. Its identical electric powertrain is also used in the Citroën ë-Spacetourer, Peugeot e-Traveller, and Opel Zafira-e Life. These are badge-engineered variants of the same Stellantis EMP2 platform vehicle, sharing all major EV components.

Officially, no. Stellantis does not offer performance upgrades for this powertrain. While aftermarket ‘tuning’ via software remapping is theoretically possible for EVs, it is highly discouraged as it can void the warranty, damage the battery or motor, and compromise safety systems. The factory calibration is optimized for range and longevity.

The official WLTP range is up to 330 km (205 miles). Real-world range varies significantly: expect 240-280 km (150-175 miles) in mixed driving, and potentially less in cold weather with heating on or during sustained highway driving. Driving style and tire pressure greatly impact achievable range.

With an 11 kW AC wallbox, a full charge from empty takes approximately 7.5 hours. Using a 100 kW DC fast charger, you can charge from 20% to 80% in about 30-40 minutes. Charging times slow down significantly above 80% to protect the battery. Always use compatible, well-maintained charging equipment.

Maintenance is simpler than an ICE vehicle. Key items include replacing the cabin air filter, checking and replacing brake fluid, inspecting the high-voltage system (visual checks), and replacing the gearbox oil (Stellantis 9735.B1) as per the schedule. The 12V battery also needs periodic replacement. No oil changes or emissions checks are needed.
