Technical Performance problem: Solved

[Big Black Stilo]

Hi all

as described in an earlier post, my Stilo was playing silly buggers.

well a bottle of redex later and all seemed slightly better, but not perfect.

Just before I went back to the dealer who serviced it I changed my brake pads. When checking the fluid to see if it had possible spilled, i double checked the leads and connections. Thats when I noticed the air intake was not fixed on top of the grill where it was supposed to be taking air from, but hanging loose and right behind the radiator where it was taking nice hot air from- if any!

Put it back and car is almost back to its normal self.

Dont know how it ended up there but I have a feeling it was when the dealer service it.

Another fine example of "wonderful" dealership quality of work i gather. Find a reputable independant (Most are more qualified than the main dealers!-And cheaper_)

Glad you got it sorted BBS. Nice when it's simple and cost free

Yeah, but still cant get to my tweeter and the gears sometimes grind going into 3rd at any revs over 3k

Be fair you dont know that for sure Why would dealer touch it?
