Problems with my clutch- now theres a shock:mad: Can press the pedal about an inch before any resistance felt- guessing a master cylinder failure? Booked in for a look to tell me whats wrong and prices on Tuesday. What with the heater matrix failure, wiper linkage failure and now this all in 18 months, I wont be the owner of a Doblo by the end of the year.(n)
 
Sadly all the failures listed are common. The tech at my dealer listed them all within the first year of my buying mine when we chatted about a leak, and he mentioned the possibility of the matrix failing -it was a condensate pipe from the A/C in my case. And I too have had a new wiper linkage, and also a replacement ancillary belt drive system -another common failure.

If all these components were more robustly designed the Doblo would be an amazing car, and it wouldn't have cost much money to do either.
 
Oh, forgot about the bottom wishbones failing on the front sus- rubber bushes wore out on it.... Seems a never ending stream of faults, oh the rear barn door latches fell apart as well. Feels like a Friday afternoon car to me this.(n)
Probably going to get a Tranny Connect LWB. Slightly bigger so the bikes will go in easier and hopefully better built
