I got my 1.6 back yesterday from the dealer here in Belfast after having it in to correct the 'airbag failiure'. They replaced the sensor under the seat. This morning it happened again. One beep, then nothing rest of day.
Tonight driving along the motorway the car started jumping and struggling as if it was running on 3 cylinders. 'Engine fault' was reported. I pulled over and turned off then on, it was shaking violently.
Rung AA who were out in 15mins (nice) and the mechanic reported that injector number 4 has died on the car as reported by the ECU in his wee notebook thingy he attached to the engine.
The car has been towed to Fiat where I will join it in the morning with the AA diagnosis letter and me very angry as to why my car is falling apart one day after they 'repaired' it.
The AA nicely arranged and dropped me off to my waiting courtesy car which Fiat are paying for for 48hrs.
What is it - a new Golf!
What a couple of days!
