Hey guys im in need of help with a fiat seicento sporting on a 51 plate
I got the car just before Xmas from a guy who said the car needed a new o2 sensor as the car wont go over 3000rpm well when i got it home it had been sat for a few days over Xmas before i started work on it and i found alot more faults with it but the two main ones are is this not revin over 3k rpm and now the engine has a tapping noise coming from the top of the engine, iv changed the oil and filter and changed the coolant as only water was used before, and nout has changed i pulled the o2 sensor out and the engine service light came on so i take it it cant be that can it? i found a fault code of p3000 witch is a random misfire but for the life of me cant figure out what is causing this.
As for the tapping from the engine i have no idea what is causing it as i don't want to take the head off but if i cant find away to sort it then i will have to and do a gasket change at the same time.
any help on these issues im having will be great as im at the end of my car knowledge on this.
many thanks
Adam
