Hi just bought a used Sedici 1.9 and was wondering if anyone else has had problems with the gears.... getting down from 3rd into 2nd is really sticky. My garage say that they cannot see anything wrong. Has anyone else had the same problem?
Hi
This is a feature of the six speed diesel Sedicis (and the SX4s with the same engine/gearbox). It's second gear selection that's tricky, especially at the beginning of a trip: it gets better as everything warms up.. the gist of previous posts on this is that Fiat dealers are told to tell people that it's "normal", but that if people continue to complain they can rectify the problem under warranty. That's a full three year warranty BTW with the third year just as good as the first two (unlike the "dealer warranty" appplying to other Fiats)
Fiat and Suzuki are both offering a kit to improve second gear selection: its a lot of work, but they are willing to do this under warranty. So if you car is under warranty still and its really bugging you, try pushing the dealer.
:bang:Oh! well ho hum 28th July, Sedici hasn't arrived, But and a big but, Fiat have revamped the Sedici, there are some cosmetic changes, new front grill bumper, interior centre consol etc, Disc brakes on rear, and two new engines, I was getting the 1.6 107 bhp, but now it has a suzuki euro5 120 bhp, The whole thing is a fine hi to do, the new model has to be homologated at thatchams labs, so sometime in August it might appear!Well I hope to be soon! Ordered mine 5th May and was told last Tuesday July 7th. that it was in the UK at Portbury dock, dealer estimated 10 days or so for it to arrive in Cornwall? Had to settle for choice of 3 colours or wait forever! Fingers crossed A.
They haven't told their dealer network thatFiat have revamped the Sedici...
I've had to turn away 3 customers in the last 2 months that wanted to buy a new one but I couldn't get them one.

It has been months since there was a Sedici available to order/In Transit/at the UK Depot so if there is a revised one (or any for that matter) available anywhere Fiat are hiding them.

Once I've had a chance to read through them properly I'll post up the details of the Series 2 that have been announced to the dealer network this morning...
