Hello Ladies and Gents, I am very new to this forum and would deeply appreciate some advice and insight into a few problems with my 2006 grande punto.
I have just picked up my car from Desira after it's diagnostic test to find a whole list of problems that I was completely unaware of. Initially I sent the car in as the seatbelt warning light kept going off along with the alarm whilst driving(even when seatbelts were fastened!) Unfortunately car's and mechanics are not my speciality so please forgive me if I appear to have no idea what I am talking about!
If any of you ladies and gents have a moment could you please explain to me what the following problems are and possible how easy and how much they are to fix. Like I said , unfortunately car's are not my strong point!
1.Oil sweating from rocker cover gasket?
2.Slight leak from gearbox ( how dangerous is this?)
3. O/S Anti-roll bar link knocking?
4. Front pads 50% - 60% worn
5. Front disks lipped and warped? ( Given quote for £366.29 to fix)
6.Exhaust system corroded.
7.Handbrake overtightened.
8.Air intake pipe bracket worn.
9.Gearbox starting to become noisy.
10.Clutch pedal slightly stiff.
11. Front lower grill hanging out.
12. Seat belt buckle (Given quote for £103.99 to fix)
The above list of problems wear written on my visual health check list given to my by Desira ...
any info you have would be very much appreciated!!
thanks
Philip
