Have just bought a Fiat 500 for my wife and it has a very bad misfire.
Is will be going back to the garage but I notice it seems to be a regular problem among owners.
Any clues at to what it may be to look for.
Car starts and runs ok but when accelerating away cold it misfires, the harder the acceleration the worse the misfire.
It is less noticeable when hot or when driven gents, but will still do it at wide throttle openings in higher gears, it is a misfire not a shudder due to being in too high a gear.
I understand plugs and cables have been changed, as problem was reported over a year ago, but not solved.
