Hi. Please can someone help me. I have a Fiat Panda Lounge Duologic 2013 that keeps getting stuck in neutral. It usually starts working again after running the engine for about 15 minutes and running through the gears.This has been happening for about 8 months. My garage have run every diagnistic test they can but can't find a fault. The most weird thing is that I actually know when the car will break down. The fault occurs religiously every 27 days & usually 3pm!!! Any advice or ideas would be greatly appreciated. I can't help thinking it's more than coincidence the fault occurs every 27 days??!!

Have a read of this thread. It's from the 500 section, but your car has the same gearbox.


The collective experience of others on this forum suggests the problem will gradually get worse until the actuator fails completely and then you will likely be looking at a £1500+ repair bill. If I were in your situation, I'd give serious thought to selling the car before this happens.

Like already said (in the other forum): Check hydraulic fluid level, check if pump engages on opening the drivers door. Recalibrate with MES.
