Hi all, sorry if this is the wrong area to post!
So i have a Fiat Siecento (first car) and it has been great since I've had it.
I took it for the MOT last week (and passed) and on the way home it broke down.
What seems to be happening is overheating and the engine is cutting out. If it is left for a few minutes it will start again but repeat the overheating and cutting out continuously.
However the fans are working perfectly fine and i don't think the car is actually over heating.
On the diagnostic computer the error P0115 is coming up which apparently means water temperature sensor so we replaced it for a new one- however, the problem is still happening.
it runs slightly longer than it did before changing the sensor however it is still cutting out repeatedly.
We think there might be 2 sensors but can only find one. Maybe a cam pulley sensor?
Anyone experienced this & managed to fix it?
All help is appreciated.
Thanks.
