I have a Fiat Stilo Estate 1.9 diesel 2004 reg. I have two problems with it. The first being that the electric passenger window just opens by itself whilst I am driving. There is no pattern it just opens.
The second problem seems more serious. When driving along the car loses power it doesnt cut out it just slows down and wont accelerate. To get it to accelerate I have to change gear. So I could be doing 60/70 in fifth and have to go down to fourth then it will do it again and its back to fifth down to fourth. It was very intermittent but the other day whilst driving my family on the ring road around Amsterdam I was constantly having to change gear to keep the car going. I haven't driven it since because I don't trust it, and I dont speak Dutch and dont know any garages or mechanics here! I am guessing it will need to go to a garage but hope to get some idea of what I might be dealing with.
