- When starting up my little baby she revs up and then sometimes cuts out unless I put my foot down on the exceleration pedal.
- When starting up and driving the car sounds like a diesel lol not a petrol like its suppose to. It also has a ticking sound whilst at stand still and driving . I was told by one garage this is the tappets but they cant change them as there hydrolic all I can do is get some liquid to coat them? Also I have been told by Fiat its the variaters? They have quoted me £475.36 parts, labour and vat included. This includes them doing the variaters tensior and cambelt is this cheap?
- Whilst driving along sometimes the ! red sign comes up on the dashboard and also when I break im guessing this is something to do with my breaks?
- When pulling away in 1st gear the clutch sorting of makes a clunk noise like the engine is bing pulled back (hard to describe) and sometimes I cant get it in 1st gear. Ive checked through the paperwork for the car and found that there was a gearbox repair only a year ago?
- My power steering light kept coming on and off for about a day and my engine management light come on but went off when i started the car the next day and then a few days later, I put a full lock on and the steering just went bang and now wont work. Its harder than driving a non power steering car! Ive been told by Ancaster Fiat Welling that for a new fiat full power steering column it will be £688.57 labour,parts & vat included is this cheap? Maybe me but this seems an awful lot as the cars only worth around a grand?
- My wind screen wipers got stuck and my left one started flapping whilst I was driving on the motorway this to me was usual as done it a few times. Then when it was awful rain a few weeks ago my left windscreen wiper stopped working so not worrying i thought its ok my right one is still on so can drive it home. Then but because it was so windy my left one flapped up hit the right one and got caught! I almost crashed the car! Does any one know of any cheap ways I can sort this? My friend mentioned something about a big windscreen wiper for the whole screen a linkage?
Cheers
