Hello All,
I have a 2016 Fiat 500 with 35K miles...have been getting check engine light only at idle...a misfire on cylinder 2. Did compression test and cylinder is 100psi compared to 210psi on the other three.
Talked to Fiat service department about warranty but it just expired. He told me he has never heard on cylinder 2 going bad only after 36K miles...he said me and my mechanic is probable doing the compression test wrong. He indicated the fiat engine is very complicated and need to be test with their diagnostic computer...He told me to take it in before I do anything to the motor...
Is this guy trying to trick me to take it in and charge me service fee...or is he telling me the truth that we did the compression test wrong...
I have a feeling he will just charge me fee and tell me cylinder 2 is bad
