juws let it warm up and cool down correxctly and you'll be fine, regular oil changes work wonders as well

If it's not tuned then just keep it serviced. They do like an oil change a bit more often than your average new car engine because they are getting on a bit.

Just make sure that the sump isn't leaking any oil, and if it is replace the gasket. Make sure it isn't smoking too much, as some of the engines which have older turbos do get a bit smokey.

Then just the usual checks really, just make sure all the fluids are topped up.

As title says -

Everyone with C20let's, how do you maintain your engines?

I know its best to do a oil change every now and again (5000 miles? i think)?? But would else do you do to insure that its all going as good as possible, reason for asking Is I just brought a corsa with a c20let & wanted to know how to keep it in best shape! :thumbs:
