Red face . Nev. I'm a Wrinkley Newbie

Howdo 2 everyone.
As my title suggests I am NOT a new motorist although I am new to Fiat as an owner. My Eldest son had the Fiat Bravo sx for about a year. Unfortunately he has become disabled due to very severe Arthritis and one or two other 'disadvantages'. He has recently taken delivery of a brand new Motability car. (Focus 1.6 auto) He has dumped his Brava on my drive "just for a couple of weeks Dad"' That was 2 months ago. Now I am left to sort the mess. The car is in very good nick, apart from a broken front bumper. Some numpty ran him off the road back along. There is also a small problem I am looking for advice on. When one starts up from cold, the red warning light, which is supposed to indicate that the gear box is overheating, comes on. The only way we have found to turn it off is by selecting nuetral and letting the car roll backwards and restarting the engine.

Do all Brava have these B....y awful door handles, the rubber inserts seem to be melting, once again advice would be welcome
