More Fiat tales of woe
Today I borrowed the wifes Punto to pop down the shops. On the way back noticed the gear lever was at a strange angle. Popped the bonnet and the engine has come away from the front passenger side mounting and the passenger side drive shaft seems to have pulled away from the gearbox.
It would appear to be a case of jacking the engine back into the mounting, but what are the implications with refitting the drive shaft are we talking an easy DIY fix
The mounting itself appears to be a rubber mounted threaded stud, with no signs of shearing or stripped threads. As my local garage replaced the gearbox 2 months ago I'm wondering if they did not tighten the nut fully.
Any suggestions?
