hi im new to this site,found as i was goggling about my problems with my car.
passed my test in jan(finaly after 2 faila,lol) so my grandad passed me down his 1999 fiat seicento,great first wee car,no power steering tho,
was out todat drving down to drop my son of and for the second time in 21/2 mths the clutch cable as snapped:bang:bang:
i've been reading this site and see this happens all the time with these cars! you would think fiat would want to solve this problem? costing me £70 eveytime from a garage are these easy to fix diy? or should i just trade it in?

welcome to here £70 is a rip off, also iirc there is a better cable available

hi! welcome to the forum

Part costs approx 12 quid and an hour of your time to fit it.

Howdy!

also iirc there is a better cable available

The unbreakable cable still breaks

They also a pain to fit to a seicento as it limited space, unless you have small hands.

I don't think they should be snapping that quickly, may be a sign of other problems.

Like the clutch release bearing on its way out.
