Hi guys,

Picked up my Bravo 1.9 Dynamic (120) multijet last week from the Fiat dealer. When I collected the car they hadn't serviced it, so I arranged for it to be serviced the week after (this week).

Now to my issue... with the car collected, I set off home and got on the motorway - I turned on the cruise control, then after about 5 minutes the car lurched for a split second and then that moment in every Fiat owners life - beeeep... "Check engine" and the engine warning light came on (it definately wasn't on when I'd set off)!

Obviously, I rang them back straight away... only to find it was 1 minute past 12 on a Saturday... and the service dept. door was still swinging on it's hinges... yes I've missed them:(

Has anyone else with a new model Bravo had this problem? Looks like the Cruise Control got it's knickers in a twist? I'll be taking it back to get the fault light reset and hopefully find out what the fault code will uncover (possibly)...

I wouldn't mind, but it was driving perfectly before I'd had it serviced - I had always thought that servicing "should" make things better:confused:
 
Hi,

There were no symptoms with mine, wasn't particularly low revs (2500 or so in fifth) - I was on the motorway with cruise control on for about 5 minutes with nothing untoward, then the loss of power for a split second... and you know the rest - everything seemed fine up to that point.

I've only had it for a week and I've given it 2 good 150 mile runs before the problem (so I think the battery should be charged by now) without any symptoms.

I'll see what the Fiat dealers have to say - hopefully there's a fault code to give us a clue:confused:

If I find anything out from the dealer, I'll post the info. here.
 
Hi all,

I said I'd get back...

...it turns out, a pipe had "blown" off my turbo - it's connected again and I'm flying :)
