Hey,
Just got a new Punto this weekend and would like a bit of help please
https://www.fiatforum.com/newbie-central/286457-new-member-grande-punto-1-9-a.html?p=2896947
I didnt notice on the test drive, probably because I couldn't get it up to speed, but when accelerating, the gear stick moves forward a bit, and then backward when foot is taken off the pedal.
It's most noticeable in 5th and the movement is about 1-2cm.
Is it anything to be concerned about? I know its a big Diesel block in the car, does it happen to anyone else? Some people say its nothing unusual just the engine moving on its rubber mounts, others say the mounts are too loose and it needs sorting.
Its a 1.9 Sporting, 35000 miles.
Cheers!
