Hello everyone,
I just wanted to update everyone since a few months ago. My 2015 fiat 500 1.2 colour therapy was having issues with getting in gear especially in slow stop and start traffic.
I went to a fiat specialist and they changed my clutch. Still having the same issues, went back and they said the master and slave cylinders need changing.
I didn’t go back again as wasn’t happy with their service.
I decided to change the slave cylinder myself the other day. Clutch felt better and no squeak.
The drive seemed better initially, however today in slow traffic was struggling to get the car in gear. The clutch peddle felt fine, but gear was rock solid to change.
What could be the issue?
My dad bleed the slave cylinder without any kind of kit or bottle, we just pressed on it until the clutch felt firm. Could that be the issue, do I need to bleed it again? (though the Clifton peddle felt ok).
Or does the master clylinder or gear box need doing?
I’m lost.
Thanks for your help.
I’ve love my car but not had any luck. I think I will part exchange for a newer one.
