Hi people, my stilo has loss of power and low mpg. my last mpg reading after filling up a tank was 38mpg, 42mpg on the motorway. Ridiculous!
The engine light was on a couple of weeks ago. Turned out i needed to change the intercooler pipe (had hole in it), and the egr valve. Changed them both with a brand new replacement, and still no power. So i decided to change the MAF Sensor, and still no difference whatsoever????
Im thinking of taking it to a fiat dealership, but they wanna charge me 35 pounds per half hour, and its not guaranteed theyll find the fault.
The problem with the car is that, it wont start to pick up speed until it reaches 2000rpm, and thats if i floor the accelarater. im being left behind by buses in roundabouts.
can some1 please tell me what i should do next?
i have a fiat stilo 1.9 multijet 120
thank you very much.
Could it be a clogged up air and fuel filter?
p.s - i had a fault with my glows plugs, after changing all foour, for a set of bosh glow plugs, the car doesnt start first time in cold mornings? even though i had no problem with starting before, even when the glow plugs were faulty.
what could be the cause of this?
