Received a letter yesterday regarding possible faulty wiring behind the dashboard. All sorted with a visit arranged to the dealer where it should be a 20 min. fix. Apart from this all appears to be well.

hi,
what age/ model of 500,
just so others may be aware,

Charlie

Had mine done a couple of weeks ago, and the mysterious sluggishness off the line in first gear also disappeared! Software update too I guess. Mine is an October 13 1.2s

We had ours done, all they said was part of the wiring loom near the steering column is moved slightly to prevent it from coming into contact.

We also had the software update, it did F.A.

Hi, the car is a 2012 500 Lounge with 6K, although I wouldn`t think the mileage is significant.

Had mine done in the summer when it went in for a service. It involved the addition of a cable tie.

Car now significantly slower with the addition of all that extra weight

Got the letter about my Parents one a few weeks ago. Really should get it booked in but annoyingly it only had a service in April so it doesn't need to go in for anything else unless we're being particularly fussy over an occasionally front passenger side suspension thumping noise and intermittent minor rattle from some trim on the boot lid.

March 2012 registered 12 plate 500 TwinAir Lounge here.
