Ok I have a fiat grande punto 8v 1.4 sporting semi auto 2008
Yesterday I've been having some issues with it, I started car yesterday and always leave it for 5-10 to heat up as I hardly use it. I tried to put it in reverse and the car kept beeping and wouldn't move. I took about 5-10 attempts until it moved. Car drove fine apart from reversing. It also flashed check transmission with a red symbol on dashboard. I have code p1818. I've noticed when I put my car in neutral I can here some sort of noise like it's going through all the gears then goes quiet and it's never done this. This morning I started car and it seems fine apart from reverse again. I can only put it in reverse if I go from neutral,first the reverse. Can anyone help with this as fiat have already said it might be the clutch or seelspeed which will cost £1200. Thanks

It could well be. However. There are some basic checks to make 1st.

The battery being a little LOW from little use . Can flag up errors..

How did you get the code?

Was it cleared..but has returned..??

It's been cleared and hasn't returned but still doing the reverse thing with beeping and when in neutral it's making s noise like it's clicking through gears. We put the code reader back on and it's not coming up any codes
