Hello, with my Punto 176, bj ́98 the bearing of the crossbar rear-right is totally in the bucket. it has high-down over 1cm game, at higher speed this takes even strongly influence on the driving behavior. the on the left side is not soo bad yet. I probably have nothing else to fix as soon as possible as right. At the left I am not yet sure. Now it is about finding a decent replacement at a reasonable price. I am on volgendes Ebay -Offer pushed:Link Unbeatably cheap. Especially since they are supposedly original parts. Quote”First outfitter of Fiat” Can you tell me more about this? doesn’t want to buy cheap scrap! Thanks a lot already! mfg Franz

Hello together, I have a Panda 169, 1,1l; EZ 02/2004 with almost 90T km. (without ABS, without climate, only the “standard” variant) By the beginning of 2008 all inspections were carried out according to plan (from the previous owner), then I bought the car and since then – except oil change – only had the things repaired, which have broken (steams and brakes). Now I have to go to Tüv in February 2011 and wanted to make an inspection before. I got an offer from a factory. Att chain, they want about 660€ from me for it. I can’t afford that, not even at first. Among other things, the timing belt should be made incl. water pump. As far as I have read through the forum, however, my flicker is a so-called free runner, so does not have an engine total damage if it breaks. Is that right? Besides, they want to sell me windshield wipers for just under 40€ – I get them somewhere else for less, right? And they want to make an oil change for 85€ before close 1.5 years ago I had the last one done for 35€ in a different shop chain. Did the prices attract sooo overall???? My question would be now, what should I do? I read that you should have the valve covers (?) adjusted from time to time?! What else should I have to do, what is really important? I’m just concerned that my car 1) comes through the TÜV, 2) is reasonably “good in shot”, so don’t nibble off soon and 3) it’s not all about v I don’t want to be replaced unnecessarily. If something breaks, I can still have it repaired. I only drive about 5000km a year, and this is mostly short distance. I am happy about suggestions, greetings, snippets.

Hello together! I hope you can help me with my problem a little bit… Here’s my suffering story: On Saturday we installed a new windshield wiper engine on the Brava meienr friend. Everything wonderful! After a small splash trip came then but suddenly flammable oscillators up to the complete strike of a cylinder. Since the spark plugs were already a little older I bought the “good” also 4 new ones and see since he ran again perfectly. Sunday: the car was Monday: During my girlfriend’s daily shopping tour, she went on a complete strike of the 3rd cylinder (about 1km after leaving). She is then to the ATU *rolleyes* where she was not helped much more. These tapped on the ignition coil, which in my opinion cannot be. It is an ignition spark on every spark plug. However, which is not quite in order: If you pull off the 1st cable (from the left): engine stutters extremely and even stronger than if it is only on 3 cylinders. n runs you pull off the 2nd cable (from the left): engine stutters extremely and even stronger than if it runs only on 3 cylinders You pull off the 3rd cable (from the left): engine stutters…but not worse than before. So it has to be on the 3rd cylinder. If you pull off the 4th cable (from the left): engine stutters extremely and even stronger than if it runs only on 3 cylinders What else can it be? –Zündkerzen new and dry –Zündfunke is everywhere — and why was it after 4 new spark plugs for 1-2 hours ok and then the same again? PS: In the Tacho unit a red symbol sporadically shines on that looks like an injection nozzle. I ask for your help! Thanks already in advance!

Good evening, I plan to buy a 207Rc o Punto Abarth for Christmas, but I’m not sure I’ve tested both cars and I like them both very well ( 207rc more permeable). The Farhzeuge are on the same price, at least the ones I want to buy. What should you pay attention to with the Abarth, are there family diseases?? How much taxes per year could anyone ever have stood between this question and has decided Pro u Contra would be great. Thanks for each a Word. Greetings

Hi everybody, I’m looking for a cheaper car at the moment and would very much like a diesel. Had a Polo 1.4 Tdi in mind so far, which I would get for about 4-5000€. Today I drove by chance a Punto 1.3 Jtd with 75hp and found the pull and the driving behavior really hammer good. Since I don’t know myself so well at Fiat unfortunately and you often hear about Italodreck, rusts anyway and engine damage, I wanted to make myself here now just make myself smart. Does this mean the durability of the engine and the technology. Is it to be lost with that of a polo? Would I be very pleased with an answer. Greeting Flex

On our long search for a diesel combination we now landed at the Lancia dealer. There is a beautiful Lybra Combi with equipment Intensa and 150 hp diesel engine. The car also has a Navi+phone, 6-fold CD changer and tinted windows in the back. Truly a very pleasantly made car. New price is probably about 31,000 euros. Thanks to day registration we were made a really excellent leasing offer – for that you don’t even get an upscale small car. Nu n my question, how good/bad is the long-term processing of the Lancia Lybra? What do you think of the 2.4 liter diesel machine regarding economic efficiency and driving pleasure? Are there any weaknesses at the Lancia Leasing (Fiat-Bank) (kilometer contract)? Is the Lybra with the Intensa equipment of the price-performance ratio okay? Thanks already heinz

Hello everyone! I had a great problem, yesterday I drove about 20 km while driving the car. Starter runs through but the diesel does not start. On the display the injection Sybol, the battery light and brake.. Have a JTD BJ 5 /99 Fiat Brava After about 5 minutes the car starts again and runs again perfectly. But then it can be that it runs out again only when is the question then the same game again. Heat failure or contact error is because I never have problems in the cold run phase, at least not the first time. Before he goes to the workshop I wanted to hear your MEINUNG. KFZ MEchaniker meant UT-Geber from the ignition ?? Be a child’s disease, possibly diesel pump pulls the air? Has anyone ever had similar problems? Thanks in advance!!

Hello guys! A golf driver is in the Fiat forum, fun! I have a few questions about Fiat Punto! My girlfriend wants to get the 1.2 L, EZ: 11/99, with 76,000 km, TÜV 05/05. Now I want to know if the Punto also has a few children’s diseases, like the Golf 4? (e.g. windows flying down during the ride, gear damage at 70,000 km, … etc) And if the price 5900 EUR would be appropriate? Thanks to you already for the answers ! Greeting fujit

Good day together, since I stupidly chased my beautiful Polo 2f against a staircase and now my frame is warped my parents have decided to buy me a year car. So I have one: Fiat Punto 1.2 (188) / (LIM 5) Get Active. Extras are: climate, radio preparation etc. now my questions: so what exactly is this radio preparation… are the boxes good for? What are these? Did you have them exchanged in yours? Does the climate do what? What kind of optical tuningtei you can recommend me for the Punto (to my polo he will not get there but well ) Achso, is a 4-door if that says what. thank you PS: what is actually the usual name for which I have to look at ebay etc.?

Why are you always being fooled as a woman in car workshops? I was in the workshop with my Punto, presented the TÜF wish list and asked for repair. On the receipt there were listed services that were not delivered. I cook with rage! Now I have to go back to the workshop and again to the TÜF.
