Hi, i have just bought a K reg tempra 2.0ie SX, the problem i have is when i lock the drivers door (central locking) all the doors lock then open again. Please help as this is my first fiat and i am very happy with the car apart from this problem.

Lock problem

Try locking every door including the boot with the key. If one of the locks is too stiff, then the central locking system will think one of the doors is open, so will try to lock, then re-open the doors straight away. It does this so that you know that there is a problem with one of the doors, so you dont walk away thinking all is fine, when one door is actually slightly open.

Im no mechanic tho, but its worth a try i reckon.
