just buy 2 normal ones and keep one in the car - i used to do that but i used my spare and have never got around to buying another, sure that will bite me int he behind eventually - but i have only had 2 go in about a decade of cento ownership - i don't think they are as bad as people make out, just some weaker than others out there.

nice one i may as well but the upgraded one costs the same as standard

i remember reading somewhere about the sei abarth having a different final drive from a sporting or something.. so it wasn't slower on 14s than the sporting on its 13s. Don't quote me on that as i can't remember the actual detail of whats different.

no sure why there would be a different clutch cable though one seems to be longer

blu73 · Nov 20, 2012

no idea tbh, never heard of there being a different cable - looking at mine can't see how it differs from a non-abarth one at all. I'd be happy to bet its the same but i stand to be corrected.

got link for what your looking at..?

blu73 · Nov 20, 2012

just done some looking at this, and there is 3 types on the eper, one for something called special gearbox or opt157 gearbox.. no idea what that is.. Could it be the cable for the citymatic ??

centoproject · Nov 20, 2012

yeh they were the options i was referring to i think it may be citymatic but isn't that a full auto ?

blu73 · Nov 21, 2012

Eklipze3k is sat next to me and he says no, its a robotised manual box..

centoproject · Nov 21, 2012

So it tells you when yo put the clutch in ?

centoproject · Nov 21, 2012

oh yeah and there is a difference between the starter motor from the non sporting box and sporting box

blu73 · Nov 21, 2012

ok, i done more looking as i never actually seen a citymatic, its a clutch-less manual box so you have a gear stick and you change gear yourself but it does the clutch for you.. Much the same as the semi-auto found in the original a-class mercs..

it has its own starter as well if you look on the eper

Hear is another question plugged PC in fiat ecu program and clicked on the odometor option and it showed 60.400 ish miles and that differs from the cluster but only by 5 thousand miles ? Has it been clocked I was thinking slipping clutch but the ecu has no reference to what gear you are in to calculate distance so my thinking.is the cluster has been swapped ? But not to con I don't think there was no speed sensor in the old box so does the ecu have the ability to calculate distance ?
