Hi All
I drive a 2000 Fiat palio 1.2 ed.
For the most I am happy with the car and it doesn't give too much issues except for the normal wear and tear.
For the last week or so however, I have been experiencing times where the car (while driving) would give a big jerk and loose power for a second or two, then it will recover again.
This happens eveyr now and then but is very intermittend and different speeds, conditions, etc...
I have tried a couple of basic checks but nothing thus far could give me an idea on what might be wrong.
I have also used some injector cleaner after a suggestion by someone on another forum, however , still no luck as it still does the same.
Has anyone experienced this before?
Someone also suggested we log onto the computer box and try and view what was logged as it might give me an indication on what the problem is, however we do not have the required software. Does anyone know where we can get the software from.
I am located in South Africa so local would be appreciated or even a web site where it can be downloaded from.
all help would be greatly appreciated as this problem is worying me somewhat .
Regards
Machiel
