Guess it's honeymoon time over...

Ok, Bravo has let herself slide over the last week - must be the 6 month honeymoon period over.

Got a kind of knocking, click coming from the steering/switchgear area on the steering column. Doesn't seem to have affected any systems although possibly the indicators aren't cancelling correctly.. I dunno, I don't tend to use them

Other issue is a bit more obvious - went to use rear screen wash and ended up with a puddle on the parcel shelf.

Guess it's got a day worth of Fiat garage to look forward to now...

Re: Guess it's honeymoon time over...

I'm the same, the water leaking through my rear windows has been going on months - as usual, this is the dealer letting the side down.

Still a cracking car mind .

Re: Guess it's honeymoon time over...

Well a thankyou to Wentane Stockton.

Despite the car trying to fix itself for the duration of it's visit to the garage They took the offending parts apart and put them back together. Light in the rear was a bit sticky sometimes - fixed. Clunking from steering/indicators - fixed. Puddle on the parcel shelf - fixed.

Car back to it's awesome self and thoroughly enjoying it's tank of V-power

Re: Guess it's honeymoon time over...

They are my local lot aswell, very good they are too. Still awaiting new passenger side front door window seal though, and bad news today, someone has smacked into the back of it whilst in the GFs car park at work

To quote her half the bumper is hanging off and once opened, the boot lid wont now shut At least the person who did it admitted so, and the car is currently being brought back to Teesside

Update, needs a new bumper and a slight scuff on rear wheel arch sorting. (Boot didnt shut cos bumper was in the way thankfully!)
