Cinq/Sei are basically the same. Just read this thread and in terms of the aftermarket headunit draining the battery, I'd say yes, most likely as that happened to me. There is a guide explaining how to make sure it switches off with the ignition and this solved the issue for me :)

Yeah...that is what I have started doing but I think it's got something to do with how the previous owner wired everything (the wiring does not look good!) :rolleyes:

Time to take it to Halfords?! :confused:
 
Definitely no, lol, unless you happen to get the one person that actually cares about their job it's likely to just make it worse ;)
Whereabouts in the world are you?


:D you have a good point there...
I have taken all the sound wiring out and started rewiring it all by myself...let you know how it goes...multimeter time it is...again!;)
In Birmingham...
 
A quick update:

Got my Seicento Schumy back! Finally! :slayer:

The tank has been replaced so there is no spillage of petrol anymore...happy about that.;)

The battery has been put on charge but it will need replacing. Any advice? Apparently they are difficult to find and costly, I am thinking if I have to replace it can I put a better one in (performance wise/uprated battery if there is such thing?!):D

The knocking noise in the back is to do with the rear suspensions, are these standard ones or do I look for specific Schumy ones (Sporting?!):confused:

Front discs and pads need replacing, any yummy performance ones to look for? :D

Oh and the sump is rusting away so that needs replacing...:)

Thank you!

I am so glad it's back...nice!:yum:
R:E your sump, i wirebrushed my sump back to the bare metal ,cleaned and treated it and then painted it with layer after layer of black hammerite , it looked like new ever since, save all the hassle, mess and money replacing it...
