Finally found a reliable Fiat mechanic in Leicester!!

Smoke...aaaagh! Coming from the engine bay!?! This coupled with an impending trip to Portsmouth on Tuesday meant that I needed to find a garage to take a look at the punto...over this Easter weekend. Seemed like an impossible task, and spent time ringing around and using the forums. Finally found a link to a mobile mechanic (Gary Hulme). After a quick phone call he offered some time the following morning to take a look. He found the problem was that oil breather pipe was not re-attached following a service by MR CLUTCH!! Oil had been 'burning' giving the symptoms. He also informed me of 2 recalls that Fiat had made without imforming me. Think i'll be on the phone on Tuesday!!

Here's a link to his site:
www.geocities.com/onlyfiats/

Can't recommend Gary enough.

Oops need to add that he operates around Leicester, but i'm sure he'd travel if you asked nicely!!
