Technical Advise on misfires

Agree but they shouldn’t take the job on if they don’t have tools and software they must know about the issues and how to do job properly.
It was done thru click mechanic and 12 month warranty so will see what they say

Have you had a diagnostic done? I would try and get a MES user to check for fault codes first. This could give pointers and save you a lot of money.

Before I start can anyone recommend a good reliable Fiat specialist south bucks /high Wycombe area think I may need them

A for Alfa

Or maybe member @Palio knows of another sensible option

Paul at A for Alfa is very good. Always too busy which I suppose is a good thing, so you might have to wait for a booking.

L&M over at Medmenham have been around ages too - I think Karl is still owner/manager so if you phone them mention my name & he’ll sort you out. Not used them since they moved from Wycombe, but I bought my Coupé from them in 2003, so they should know what they are doing with a fairly simple 500.

Oops realised Palio won’t help - Gavin Bushby….. Too used to FB with actual names!

Just need to clarify what software will they need to perform the reset of parameters/ phonic rest ?
Give them chance to either get software or find somewhere to get it
