All,
I have noticed recently that my 1.2L Fiat Panda Dynamic Eco 2009 has an intermittent lull in drive. I believe this happens irrespective of whether the car is warm or cold and whether in a high or low gear.
For instance, if I am travelling on a motorway with the accelerator held in a fixed position it will suddenly shudder briefly (losses drive) and recover. When travelling at slower speeds or in heavy traffic this can sometimes lead to stall/cut-out of the engine.
It is pretty infrequent and I have not encountered it in the last two weeks but I would like to know why it occurs and how important or not it is that I deal with it. The garage want £100 just to read the error codes.
Has anyone else encountered this?
Regards,
DT
