By a bizarre coincidence whilst I was busy cleaning the huge amount of gunk in the rubber seals around the Terrano driver's window, my immediate neighbour's son comes up and says-well, my Fiat is misbehaving. When I enquired what was up with his 47,000 Fiat, it came as a surprise to learn that he was having similar problems as I am with the Terrano (hopefully sorted out later this week). (And many thanks for those replies,too) Apparently in the last week he suddenly loses power when in 5th gear and a red light comes on - I believe the pre heat warning light. His Fiat specialist is,alarmingly perhaps, not immediately sure what is up-and it is still in their garage. It always occurs when he is accelerating ( the limited extent that 5th will,presumably). As the son is going to oblige and fit new taps to the kitchen sink, I promised to post his predicament to see whether anyone else has heard of this issue Cheers Robin
