Hi
Have a Fiat Punto Sporting 16V 1.4 M1 2004 Model.
Just had its 36,000 mile service..Complained about the RPM fluctuating when idle when I took it in. Before I took it in it was idle at 1200 RPM and dropping to 800. Now they have reset the ECU Adaptations. It is idle at 800 RPM and fluctuated down to 500. And is jurking more often.
I stopped the cheque for the service and for some new dics and break pads until it was looked at again.
The garage had the car for another day, and had sent it to another FIAT garage for an upgrade. The service manager came with the car when they dropped it off as it still had the same problem. He said it seemed a bit better (which it does not) and that the car needed a good run out, as the throttle was choked up and not to be afraid to rev the engine. So far no change. Getting the RPM to 6500 when in 3rd gear i'm sure cant be good for it. I will give it about a week then take it back.
Another garage looked at it and said it needed a new coil back. Someone else said her sisters car needed a new throttle body....eeeek
Can anyone help.....PLEASE !!!!!:worship:
Sorry my message is so long!!!
