Hi everyone!
I did a search but couldn't find a thread about this sorry if there is one.
My Cinquecento runs fine, except when it's temperature seems to go over 90c then it will just die, I have to open the bonnet and let it cool down and even when it reaches 50c it still won't start for a good 10 minutes after.
One of my breather hoses coming from my air filter and going into my engine (forgive my lack of technical knowledge, Im new to cars) is broken, at the moment it's jubilee clipped on with ductape as well. My coolant seems to drain rather quickly too. (Filled it up to max on Friday it was nearly empty this morning.)
The weird thing is this didn't start happening until I took it to have it's CV joints changed. Do you think that the person who did the work might of done something but not bothered to fix it?
Are there any checks you could suggest that I could do that doesn't require to much knowledge about cars (or access to any special equipment).
Thanks for any help you can give me.
Nerveno.
