So, this little base model punto 1.2 I bought for the daughter so she's not stranded without a car (long story) and I will "inherit" when they sort their new car - decided it needs a bit of tlc.
So, yesterday I've done plugs, oil filter and oil change, air filter and replaced the broken rear reversing light unit. Its so nice to work on a nice straight forward engine, reminds me of my first car, a wee 1976 mini!
Next step though, we've known there's an intermittent bulb warning, seems to only come on at certain times and decided it's time for further investigation as all bulbs seem to work and it's been through the mot with no issues!
You probably can't see in the picture below but...
There's a bulb completely missing from the middle section! I didn't realise that there's a running light in there! It's not working on the opposite cluster, so 2 bulbs bought and it's investigation time today! (Just noticed that annoying bit of rust on the bottom of the cluster too!)
