Sounds like it's a right nightmare van that gav. Last thing u need. How old is it and how many miles it got?

If they give you some spill that your head is knackered, i have a spare one you can have Gav,with one injector missing,also a diesel pump should you ever need it.I had loads of grief with my old one and spent thousands on it too.

if anyones thinking of buying a brand new fiat, think carefully as they try to wriggle out of their warranty requirements, had my airbag light come on constantly, and they said its not under warranty, although all electrics are. the guy had a cheek to say the warranty booklet doesnt mean anything.

had to go thru headoffice to sort it out! been a good van eitherwise.
