Yes there are some probs with this model but most of them are recalls. Depending on if it is a 3door or 5door there are some probs with the door locks/handles.Recalls are covered by warrenty.If you can give me info i can check if any recalls needed doing or contact a FIAT dealer and will tell you.

I got the only 1 I would have, the 1.9 Multijet Sporting so its a 130 bhp 3 door and made after the re-call for the safety bracket for the steering column 5* ncap award. Real quick mate like the early Golf GTI but does many more to a gallon! Doesnt rattle or squeek, not yet anyways. Bril brakes, just seems really well put together. Insurance group 6 is very nice too, got it for £9400 with 1600 miles on it. Hoping to hear from other 1.9 owners. Cheers and beers... Kaypee.

Thanks for your offer of help. We have a Punto Mk2 2001 15 Months ago we had a serious overheat due to the thermostat failing. After having this fixed the EM light Flashes on at 65 mph , lower speed and eventually it goes out Diagnostics indicate Multiple Missfire. New plugs and leads recommended and fitted, no difference My local garage (not fiat) but reputable cannot trace a miss fire, and suggest leaving it until it gets worse, otherwise its an expensive change it and see situation. So far still alright Any suggestions would be appreciated, Secondly what is involved in replacing the front passenger CL actuator Cheers

parked up went and got parents from hotel and on way home same thing after 25ish miles. Thing is it doesn't happen when they drive it but they only go to the local shops or into nearest town which is 10 miles away. what does this symbol mean? owners manual just says warning light. Warning of/for what?

i have had my fiat punto for a bout 6 months, not a bad little car and cheapish, lol, well it would be if it stayed running ok, the speedo has gone, there is no power coming out of the sensor, so i have put a new one on and no difference, appears the drive has snapped, only this looks like a gear box out job, can anyone confirm this, or if not how do you change it? also since i got it, it has a strange cuttin out problem, it seems to cut out but as soon as you clutch it you can rev it, we have changed the coils, the plugs are new, the car just had an mot so i assume the lambda sensor is ok, does anyone have any ideas, cos it doing my head in and you have to rev it alot at ligghts or stops, as it will stall, its had a head gasket, but runs ok for the rest of the time, and it is ok on fuel, it hink, 34mpg round town, can anyone please help thanks jason

I had a puncture in my 1.9 GP Sporting and the can of milk I got to fix punctures was a let down lol!! Anyways... what steel wheel can I buy as a spare for the GP Sporting with 205/45/17 wheels fitted as standard....? Thinking of a 185/65/15 but not sure this will clear the discs and caliper? Any idea at all? What would a FIAT dealer sell me? I bought a jack and wheelnut spanner from a Scrappies for £4 but they wont sell wheels and tyres, but I have a friendly tyre fitting station nearby.

I got a GP steely from my dealer for a tenner and shod it with a 175/65/15. It fits the wheel well with the plastic taken out. Got a jack and wheel spanner from a tatters for £4. Tyre was new £40. £54 and now I can motor in peace again... just gotta make SURE the steely will fit, it came off a GP whos owner upgraded to alloys at purchase so should be okay. I'll let everyone know ASAP. Cheers buddy. :-)
