Punto Man, Rugeley, 01889 579731, or 07976 770490. Ex Fiat, highly trained and knowledgeable, we use them for all work on my Qubo, and all work on both Daughters Puntos. Tell them Peter recommended them..........PS, don't be put off by the yard/workshop, they only rent it, and yes they also break Puntos.

Thanks for that but their google reviews look abit hit and miss if the reviews are genuine.
Im sure all their details are on the forum.
Have a good look of the garages section.. use b.ham as a SEARCH term )
They can be a bit hit & miss, and that's from someone in the trade. Pete who runs it is generally ok but is unable to speak without spacing every word with an f word.

If its an F'in service..
You might be in luck
How come nobody could come up with the name of the central brum place?
Used to get mentioned a lot on here.

Steering.. very power hungry.. chack battery and charging circuit.. then get the PAS fault codes read if its still an issue.
Rads are cheap.. and fairly simple..
Check the cooling fan works whilst it is off

Aye, radiator simple job, easy to do if you're handy with the spanners. You'll spend more time trying to bleed the system properly.
To be straight..
There isnt any financial benefit to paying garages for such tasks..
Paying .. .£400 for these tasks is the value of most mk2's
The rad is an hours work..may as well do the thermostat at the same time..
Another 10 mins.
Refilling and bleeding..
Fill to within an inch of neck of sighttube.
Run until HOT..SYPHONING OUT the extra.
Job done.
Then keep an eye on levels for next few hours..as it will chase out small pockets of air..
