Hi all i have had my abarth about 9 weeks now, after a couple of minor issues with the brake sensor and lights staying on, i now have the abs/asr light flash up now and again would this be due to sometimes the brake lights still stickin? i have a bush gone on the back which makes a noise every time i go over a bump! creaking noises from the front and to top it all off my oil indicator gauge wasnt working! which has left me dry of oil and now making a loud noise from the engine! sounds like tappets but much louder! took it to one garage as its still driveable with oil in it! and they wont touch it! but they said it sounds like the piston is hitting on the head :bang: and mentioned that the crank and bottom end bearings may be buggered! any one else had anything like this happen? sounds like engine re build or transplant? i would like to be a bit clued up as i have another machanic coming round tomoro to have a look! but im guessing not going to know til its all opened up!
But im guessing its going to cost a fair bit to fix! soon as it is tho im selling for sure! i have had it with this car!
Its a 2.4 sele speed
2002 plate
and yellow which seems to be the ones to go! coincidence i know! lol
thanks in advance
