I have on two occasions experienced an "Engine fault" warning on my 2002 Stilo 1.6, on both occasions an error code reader has displayed the code P0105 (Manifold Absolute Pressure/Barometric Pressure Circuit), but the car has behaved well without any warning as soon as the code has been deleted from the car's memory (at least until the next occurrence of the same error after a few months).
Though the P0105 fault code indicates that there may be something wrong with the MAP sensor, I have read on this forum that on some Stilos (and especially the 1.6 petrol ones, if memory serves me) the problem is not the MAP sensor, and that a software update is what is needed to fix the problem.
My problem is to convince my Fiat dealer that new software for my car actually exists, as my insisting that there is might not be enough to convince the dealer (no success so far, at least), and I feel rather silly as a non-technical person when insisting on something I don't really know all that much about.
Does anyone here have any information that I may give my dealer to convince them that this software update exists (and which might perhaps facilitate their efforts to locate it)? Software name, reference IDs, version numbers, etc?
