  • Fiat IDEA automatic spins completely

    Hello, I have the following problem with a 1.4 16V Idea vintage 2006. Currently the automatic spins, sometimes throws the gear out on idling, that is really very annoying. Besides, it comes mostly after the start when it is cold and you take the return journey so russes the whole car so, that can not be healthy. Unfortunately, the Fiat workshop no longer knows any advice, was only recently there because he had gear problems, there was something leaking and he has “hydraulic fluid” The tank with the liquid is sitting in front of the open bonnet on the left side of the battery under such a protective plate. This was cleaned, replenished, no further error detectable, then went again and the next day already again the problems. In addition, it does not always start immediately, sometimes it needs a few start-ups, but does not know if this is connected with it ? Battery came new about about 6 months ago, can ma Maybe someone knows advice, car has almost 90000km and so far no bigger problems. Greetings

  • Which more powerful Fiat gasoline engine fits into a Ducato 280 2.0 (XN1T) ?

    Hi yours, since my 1990’s Ducato has a chronic lack of performance and extreme thirst, I’d like to know which gasoline engines from the Fiat Stall fit in there. The XN1T has about 75hp and drinks around 18 liters on 100 KM. That must be more powerful and cheaper, right?

  • Fiat doblo 263 diesel engine damage

    moin search drivers of fiat doplo type 263 bauj from 5/2010 who also have defective injection nozzle seals. as it turned out today my doplo bj. 5/2010 at 40,000km the injection nozzle seals have broken. result you gass yourself in the vehicle. through the leaks nozzle seals penetrate exhaust gases that are transported by the ventilation and the air conditioning system into the interior. my contract dealer came with this nice and expensive message, expensive because of the car for 4 months from the gara ntie is and according to his statement I can carry the damage myself. targeted cost 500 – 2000€ depending on what is broken during the expansion of the seals. all costs I should bear. fiat would reject the reperature on kulanz so his statement. 40,000km is no running power for a diesel and I am more than angry. because the damage was found very quickly, within 20min and I had the impression that you knew where to look came up immediately the suspected: fiat knows the harm or d. he cause and knew where to look. in the case of exhaust gases in the interior, you first search the exhaust system and bend and do not direct the injection nozzles and check them. especially since these are more than inaccessible installed. therefore look for drivers or owners of doplo`s with the same problems. since we are thinking of using a lawyer.

  • Ducato 250 180 Multijet Start problems

    Hello together, I have a problem with my Ducato. He is year 10/2011 150tKm and a 3l 180 multijet with DPF. In the morning or if he stands longer than 2-3 hours, he starts at the first turn. He so 10 minutes or longer he starts very badly. You have to try again ten times. He then sounds like he doesn’t want to be able to. After a few seconds he just spins from the starter. But at some point he starts. Then he runs absolutely fault-free. Until the next If you try it again for a long time, the diesel filter in the AI will be reported. Also, sometimes an error speed sensor is set. As a result, air filter, diesel filter, crankshaft sensor and camshaft sensor have been renewed. The fuel pump has also been checked. The same is the rail pressure when starting. Unfortunately, without improvement. Sometimes, when you turn it off, it sounds hard and it shakes strongly once. has had a mistake for two years because of a glow candle. But that should not be a problem at Warmstart. The local workshop has the suspicion Drosselklappe. But should better drive to Fiat in the neighboring city. But before even more parts are changed in vain, I wanted to hear your opinion. Thank you. Sincerely Patrick

  • Ducato 250 , running restless , no power

    Hello everybody, my 250’er BJ 2012 doesn’t really like that anymore. First he didn’t want to start this morning now he’s running, very restless and doesn’t take any gas. The following I’ve already done: – leak oil checked, everything in the target. Injectors were renewed in 10/15 – error memory read out, no error available – checked for leaks – control time checked, also ok The exhaust gas smells extremely like unburned fuel and smokes accordingly white. e and ran before without any problems. Maybe anyone else an idea? AGR, throttle flap ? Ducato 250 130 Multijet, BJ 2012, 170.tkm Greeting

  • Fiat Doblo, gasoline engine problems…

    Moin people, My mother has a problem with her Fiat Doblo (1,4l petrol engine, 2005). When the engine comes to temperature and then you have high speed (as for example when crossing the country at 80km/h upwards) the yellow engine control light starts to light up (according to the manual, it stands for an error/problem with the injection). Her screwdriver first meant that it is due to a cracked cracker, so bought a new crusher with cat and lambda probe and bought (the prices for this are su However, the problem was still there, then spark plugs, ignition cables and ignition coils were replaced. Allegedly there were error code for the ignition in the error memory. However, the problem still exists. That the problem with the indicator light is connected with the engine speed I found myself during a test drive ( unfortunately I do not live nearby). I therefore think that the problem is probably actually what with the injection system (mixing preparation) Are there typical errors or do you have to do a “traditional” troubleshooting, where you have to work slowly from the air inlet to the air filter to the injection system, as well as from the tank, over fuel filter to injection system and possibly even further over valves to the cylinder, through??? I hope here can help me jmd., my mother has put far too much coal into the cucumber, without which the error was removed and financially standing she is not well there as a pensioner. Greetz

  • Fiat Dukato RV Start problems

    Hello, our camper has a problem. We were on the road and filled up our half full tank in the Netherlands, because the diesel was quite cheap there. Before the tanking process the WoMo ran perfectly. After the tanking we could drive 400m, the Fiat shook, took no more gas and went out. After that nothing happened. Two years ago we had a problem with the pump, which is in the tank, had these directly suspected…. but after knocking on the pump, as it was shown to us 2 years ago by an experienced mechanic (at that time it worked), did nothing more. After a few hours had passed and a tow truck came, the mechanic was also at a loss, did some tests, but it did not work. Towing could not be done either, had no towing device as trailer. At the top also did not work, because of the overall height. So since he had to leave us then we tried to start again ourselves, At once it went again and we were glad to get away from the thoroughfare. So we got again 5km further, when we got again the signs that he wants to go out, we quickly rolled into a side road to the edge. Have tested the fuel flow before and behind the diesel filter (newly a few weeks ago) which ran. So now came a new tow truck from Germany and towed us to his workshop. Now the car is there and they find nothing. W If it’s cold, it runs, it gets warm, it no longer takes gas. Cash receipt indicates diesel, gas station says pump was also filled with diesel. So now our Latin is at the end. Who else has something to offer? Thank you in advance for your thoughts, Marion

  • AHK disturbs PDC

    Hello together. Since I found my problem in other forums, but still I don’t work with my Doblo, I’m addressing you. I have a rigid Ahk (brand Auto Hak) with specific 13pin cable set (brand Jaeger), so matching plugs, check control and PDC shut-down attached to my Doblo on the weekend. Everything is tested and works as it should. However, if I plug off the trailer, the PDC reports a permanent tone, although behind the Aut o nothing is located. (The trailer is pushed away and the car is horizontally on the asphalt) The fault here is the hook of the coupling. If it is disassembled, the PDC works as it should, the hook is attached to the permanent tone. I tested the sensors for function (tick if I keep my finger on it) I tried to adjust the sensors (doesn’t go there plastic with snap function) I checked all plugs and cable connections again, also those of the PDC since I have the S The pen in the connection box, which is responsible for the rear fog lamp and the PDC, has not been suspended either. I called my Fiat workshop and the problem is unknown. According to this workshop, the PDC is not reprogrammable or similar. Even the manufacturer of the Ahk is not aware of this. If I hold the two internal sensors with my finger, the continuous tone is gone, but the other sensors then also work. no more. I don’t know any more advice. Do you have any idea what else I could do? Thanks LG

  • Doblo – Seven seats

    Hi all, I’m looking for a new car with my wife right now. Criteria are seven seats and sliding doors. She currently likes the Doblo the best. We’ve been to a dealer, but not only didn’t have a 7-seater, but also said that he has never sold one himself. So the problem is that I can’t find any information about how it’s solved. If the seven seats are in there, then it seems that you don’t have a trunk anymore. Is the trunk large enough for normal use? I’m talking about a weekend purchase now. Or at least put a folding box and a few drinks crates there. Can I still expand the seats if I want to transport something big for example? I imagine this quite stupid when the seats are folded in the back and the seats of the back seat are also. A level You won’t have a lot of space. Thanks for a few answers
