I posted a few weeks ago that the Injection System Failure light had come on (twice) although after turning off and restarting a few times the light went out again. I rang the dealer and was told that if it happened again to take it in but otherwise just leave it until the next service then they would check the stored fault code and go from there.
The car has been running OK but the last two fill ups have shown a sharp increase in fuel consumption, now down to about 45mpg from the usual 54mpg.
Also the oil level (which is notoriously difficult to read anyway) on the dipstick seems to be getting higher so I am now worried that the extra fuel is not being burnt but bypassing the rings and ending up in the sump the same as happens when it goes through a regeneration cycle.
I've covered just over 5000 miles and had to have the oil and filter changed at 3500 due to excessive regeneration so I hope that when I contact the dealer on Monday if there is a fuel fault and they rectify it under warranty they will change the oil this time FOC.
I was just wondering if any Fiat techs have come across this before on any diesel model in the range.
Just to really make my day the heater fan has started to get annoyingly loud. :bang:
