Well, not made a post in awhile so think i shall do some venting!
Back when i got the car, my Blue&Me TomTom unit wouldnt connect with the blue&me, took car into dealership 3 times (Full Days each time) for them to talk to TomTom & Talk to Fiat directly and get a specialist in etc until they decided to put in a new B&M Control Unit... which took weeks to arrive & then they forgot to tell me.
Finally, got the new unit fitted (Another full day) and the B&M TomTom still wouldnt work, so took it in AGAIN, and they sorted it pretty quickly and everything worked just fine.
After a few weeks & long distance travelling, i found my music (from memory stick) was stopping / restarting and the B&M was completely rebooting mid-travel... so phone would disconnect / music would stop / satnav would disconnect, and a minute or 2 later it'd come back again.
So, i took it into the dealership a few weeks ago who had a look at it for the day, and the guy drew a blank... but pointed out he just recieved an email from Fiat telling him about a conflict between Blue&Me TomTom + EcoDrive (which i had installed) which caused media playback problems so we assumed it was that, and that he'll give me a ring when a fix comes out.
Couple of days later i had a phone call saying theres a new type of B&M Control Unit fiat have in testing that fixes the problem, and he'll order it as soon as its avaliable, a few weeks later he gave me a ring & said its in & to bring the car in.
So, last week, i took the car in for a half day.. they replaced the B&M Control Unit... Unfortunately i got the car back in Italian because the person who worked on my car didnt know how to change the language to English, and the Master Technician that usually works on it wasnt in as he was on training with Fiat...... But my music was working just fine.
So, brings me to yesterday where i drove to Croyed Bay & realised i havent connected my Sat Nav yet so i tried to connect it, and it refused to connect and after multiple attempts, still wont connect. - So i'll take it into a dealership when i can be arsed.
Today i just ran out to my car to grab some change from the cubby hole by the drives knee, and noticed it looked alittle odd, opened it & found that whole section of dash can be easily pulled out & pressing any buttons results in the section of dash moving about.
Now im just pissed off, going to phone the dealership tomorrow & demand the master tech works on it rather than some unknown clueless guy, and i want it all bloody working & nothing falling off.
