Here is a funny one. Brand new 2015 Punto. When driving in very slow traffic, my dualogic clutch thinks I'm about to stop so it disengages even though I don't lift the foot off the gas pedal. So at 2-3 kph the ride is really jerky - lurch forward-halt-lurch forward-halt.
I went back to the dealer and he told me that simply haven't got used to it yet. Is there a trick of sorts to drive it smoothly at very slow speed?
 
I had practically the same problem,jerking on clutch take-up, which was fixed by purging the air from the HP hydraulic circuit, was fixed for 2 months but now re-occuring so am going back next week to have hydraulic oil changed and re-purged. Had to take instructions how to do it though. Needs an 'Examiner' and page 20 onwards from the training manual (put Fiat-dualogic-M20) into Google and it's a site somewhere in New Zealand. Others have had the same probs too

MultiECUScan should be capable of the same bleed / purge , and recalibrate procedure;)

Blimey. Lucky I'm in New Zealand then. Having said that, since it's brand new still under warranty, I should be able to get the dealer to do it for me, no?
 
With a bit of luck ,you should, but my local Fiat agent gave me the car back and said there was nothing wrong with it. Only by looking on the Forum and a bit of internet searching, and coming across the NZ web-site and going to an ex-Fiat garage was I able to get it fixed. hope it works for you.
