I bought a 500L on 11.11., used with EZ 04/14 at a used car dealer. I have already done very hard to separate myself from my age-old Agila, but then was really happy with the Fiat. However, this stopped now only a few days. On the second ride I suddenly had the cuff of the gear stick in my hand, so the jacket. I found that on the plasti The dealer was rather grumpy when I sent him an e-mail with photos of the broken part and said that it hadn’t been before. He already annoyed me directly, because I just took two rides with the car and had a completely normal switching behaviour. Anyway, he has ordered this part for me now and I can pick it up from him. Since week, I have been working with him. 2 squeaks now additionally the brake, which can happen more often than not, if cars have been standing for a long time (the car was probably from September until my purchase at the dealer). Well, I hope so before every ride, that the squeaking becomes less, but instead the clutch is also squeaking now, if you let it go. This car drives me crazy and I have it just 3 weeks. For three days now “on top: there I put a I have to say that I listen to the radio almost never, because I usually have the kids in the car and then it’s just too loud for me. So I found it more or less by chance now and would like to put the car in front of the dealer’s door again and have my money back again. The dealer has given me a great deal of credit for it. och gave a premium guarantee about Intec, which is valid for a year, but I’m afraid that I can’t achieve much with the defective speaker. Maybe someone has similar problems with its 500L? I was so happy when I found the car and now I’m really just annoyed that I spent so much money on this car and have the feeling that I was somehow cut over my ear for all the defects 🙁

Hello together, I would need help here from the Fiat specialists. Fiat 500 1.2 69ps 2008 build year Although I bought a Fiat 500 at which I noticed on the home drive that car exactly at 3500 turns is getting loud it sounds like from the gearbox and writes and hums very loud as soon as I go up to 3600-3900 turns it’s gone it’s in 4 and 5 strokes worst with the other courses it’s not so noticeable. All walks go in perfectly and out no one lei problems, add that car vibrates from 145kmh. I really have no idea what it can be very grateful about any advice.

Hello, My girlfriend drives a Fiat 500 Lounge (EZ 04.2016) Twinair 105PS Lounge with the small 5-bit radio without a Navi but with DAB. From the beginning she used the Uconnect live app. Until about 2 weeks ago, the app and all services worked perfectly. Since then, when the app is opened, only the self-set photo of the car appears. Other functions are no longer available. In the app there was a short hint window. In the sense that the services were expired and you should activate them again on the Uconnect website. On the website however, there is no way to do this!? Does anyone know the problem ?

Hello dear people, could you look at the picture jmd. and tell me to what extent the shown rust (though certainly only superficially) is “normal” for a 5 year old Fiat 500? Was a bit terrified when I looked under my wife’s car. Thank you very much.

Has anyone ever done this successfully? Or has a link described what needs to be set as where by MUS, so that all systems work properly with the new 7″?

After one day (about 100km) I measured my 500 with the Eibach ProKit (30/30) lower. That’s okay, but I’ve got 10mm difference between right and left. On the right it’s 40mm lower, on the left it’s almost 50mm lower. Is this going to work with the time and then it’s the same, or did they build shit? With the spring quality of Eibach, it seems strange to me, especially the difference between right and left. In the measurement, the car was unloaded and I also did the counter-test at different parking positions in order to exclude terrain influence.

The car of my friend needs about 0.5 liters of oil at 1500 km. Is that normal?. I drive another factory and this consumption seems a bit much to me. How is the exact designation of the right oil for the 500 L ? What alternatives are there ? And another question: the oil level is difficult to read on the amber measuring rod. Is there a trick here ? I have seen that the installer in the workshop rubs the lower measuring area with something like chalk so that the oil level becomes more visible. Rudi

Hello, my sister has an odyssey with her 2009 automatic Fiat 500 behind her … After 4 workshops – some of which meant no problem, we could do – she has now landed at Fiat Frankfurt. They want to have 4200 euros for a defective clutch with control module – that is the complete Waaaahnsinn … Is this normal or does someone know a good workshop in this area, which also gets it at a reasonable price? Greetings, Jens

Hello together, at my FIAT 500C, BJ 2011, the roof completely said goodbye. The guide rods have gone out of the anchors and there is a hopeless mess, where once there was a folding roof. The workshop calls for about 7,500,-€. This is an economic total damage. Can you perhaps rework a roof of a 500C (e.g. with engine damage) on mine? Does someone have to have experiences or knows someone who can do something like that? I am absolutely no screwdriver and live in Münsterland. I would be very grateful about tips.

With a Fiat 500 convertible, the cover no longer closes completely. Is there any experience about it or also correction of defects?? Fiat first puts his hands in the lap and knows nothing about it. Thank you for your info ́s
