my cars (fiat multipla) started making a knocking noise since yesterday and has been getting to the higher end of the thermostat (fith bar and occasionally 6...
Hi. You do not say if it's petrol or diesel. However... do NOT drive the car. The knocking is probably VERY much related to over heating. As you say the fan is...

Where is the knocking coming from? Is it not possible that it could be coming from the water pump, and the pump failing could be the cause of overheating? If...
I probably didn't explain things too well as it was late last night when I replied. But there is some truth in what Jon says. If the knocking starts as soon as...
Hi everyone. We had out clutch changed out 2000 W reg Diesel multi a couple of years ago. About 3 weeks ago, it wouldn't go into gear when the engine was on, ...
It can be very difficult to bleed the system. There's a bleed point on the slave cylinder, and another one quite well hidden on the bulkhead, roughly behind...
Many thanks for all the responses to this so far. Having considered the various options I am guided towards a hydraulics problem between the pedal and the...
Ken, If the fingers of the clutch spring are wearing against the release bearing, the only way that can be the fault of the hydraulics is if there is pressure...
Thanks Jonathan, I'll check with them. Do you know the consequence of only bleeding one? Would it make the problem reoccur until it was thoroughly bled? I...

Hi, does any-one know of a code reader for Fiat JTDs. I've protocol readers for Mitsubishis, Fords and Volkswagons but Fiat I have not. Can't find one any...

I also bought one off eBay. It's called the CAN OBD2 U480 code reader. It is definitely compatible with the Multipla JTD, although I haven't read a fault with...
Hi That is the one I bought to find why I got the ABS and EBD messages. The seller confirmed that it would do this but I got no errors. It will definately...
Hi Always liked the Multi, and am finally in the position where I can think about buying one. Budget is fairly low (up to about £2.5k), so I'm going to be...

We've had our 2000 reg JTD for around 4 years now & year by year, it's cost us less than my Ford. Over about 50k miles has only been undrivable once (MAF...
I'm with Paul but want to add that £ for £ Multi's (and the Doblo) are a bargain. Our's was bought brand new for less than £13000. In our case we had a fair...
