Anyone know a good Fiat specialist in Victoria for a timing belt change? I'm fussy who I give it to and I don't trust my local fiat dealer.

What dealer were you using? I have used zegame and being happy, occasionally price is a bit rich but they are good compared to Werribee where I bought it.

No, but also a club contains it's own political challenges generally, so that's why I stay within forums.

 

[badWoG JuELz 500]

Thats fair enough

is there anyone in australia that sells fiat 500 parts. exhausts with beefy note pops and crackles, similar stuff to roadrace motor sports was thinking about buying a big brake kit, spoiler extention and a nice beefy exhaust for my fiat 500s 2013. there is a guy selling a nice exhaust from the uk but shipping is 600 bucks

I buy my towbars from the UK and it works out about the same as buying locally, but the quality of the European product is better. I got my exhaust 500's exhaust from Italy, I'd go for the Ragazzon next time, or just get a local shop to fab on up to your specs.

Hi there - 1st post / new owner here.

I've had my 500S for a week now and it's a blast.

Tested out the Thule roof racks this morning with one of my kayaks and while it fits quite well I think I'll work out some front and back tiedowns before venturing too far.

 

[Deathman]

thanks do you have a link for the exhaust? and does it work out cheaper for a local shop to fab up an exhaust?

my mate was driving my 500s today and told me it full foot and sometimes there is no power, sport mode doesnt do that much, and he also told me since my car is a ex demo with only 8ks when i got it from the dealer it has 630ks, he told me the mechanic hoon in the cars etc which has got me worried as i blacked out my tail light with stocking and found a heap of dirt underneath the tail light also he found that my right day time running light has water in it and the left has a crack i have not driven the car because im suspended till next month. the dealer drove it to my house aswell. do i have something wrong as in the power and sport mode.

What engine?

 

[Deathman]

anyone know where to get a go pedal second hand had a seller but sale fell through so I'm wanting to buy one ASAP

 

[Deathman]

What engine?

4 cylinder 1.4l

4 cylinder 1.4l

Has no power? Sounds odd. When you put in sport it's more dynamic to drive. Is it auto or manual?
