Posts: 1 Thanks: 0 Trader Rating: 0 | Punto JTD ELX Hi Just bought the missus a punto TD wow what a cracking little motor! Could someone tell me about this red key thing ours is a 2001 model and came with two blue keys, one has the fiat logo on it the other does not should there be a red key for the car or not? I have the service history book but have no owners booklet. I really could do with one so the wife knows where to put the oil etc because I know she will forget what I have shown her! Any help would be appreciated.

Posts: 218 Thanks: 0 Trader Rating: 0 | As an everyday driving car TD's (with lots of torque) make so much sense as that is where the revs are going to be during normal driving anyway. E.g. around town you just floor it for quick acceleration if required and you pretty much have instant peak torque. Just a random Q though: around what time does the remapped Punto JTD do 0-100mph ? <font face="Verdana">-- T. <font color="maroon">'98 Marea Weekend ELX (1.8 16v).</font id="maroon"></font id="Verdana">
