Hi all, hopefully someone can help with an issue with my daughters Grande Punto 1.2 engine management light came on shortly after a cambelt change (1-2weeks Don't think the cambelt change is directly linked to the problem)
Car drives fine, but occasionally cuts out when coming to a stop, also apart from when the engine is cold it wont start unless the throttle pedal is pressed to give the engine some fuel. Well what actually happens is the engine catches but immediately dies unless given some gas.
Took the car to a local garage I know and trust to do a diagnostic test, result was 'unknown code' mechanic cleared the fault, light went out and has not came back on, but the car still wont start without gas and still occasionally cuts out.
Plan on giving the car a service, dont think it will cure the problem but wont do any harm.
So apart from taking it to a FIAT dealer, I'm stumped.
