I've just been charged £50 to get this sorted by the supplying dealer - the one with the yellow window sticker bearing the man with the knighthood's name. This also included replacement of 3 bulbs for the heater controls (intermittent fault on the left half of the panel).
Sorry T but i beg to differ.
Mine and serveral other 500's ive looked at of late have been the same way, the very end of the plastic pipe with the rubber sleeve inside is left on the joiner, and the rest of the plastic is left floating around, And you have to mod it because the internal diamter of the plastic pipe that's left is a lot larger than the external diamter of the joiner.
Although i would much prefer it if that was the case T, it would save faffing around with a repair.
Disappointingly, this was NOT covered by the warranty although they've said that replacement of the noisy heater fan is a "maybe" for being repaired under the 3rd year of warranty. However, as they've had to order the part(!), I've to go back again next week to get it done.
They must surely have been aware that the fan would have to be replaced when I booked the car in - this is a known problem after all. :bang:
