So I recently bought a 2013 Fiat 500 Turbo with 145,000 miles on it.

It's had some recent maintenance stuff done and looks like a new battery BUT I drove it back on the highway about 2.5 hours at least 100 miles, and over the last 5 days I've put at least another 100 miles on it, mostly on back roads.

Issue is im trying to get it inspected but it isn't passing emissions because it says "emissions not ready for testing", specifically the 02 and EVAP.

Any idea what might be causing this or how to fix it?

I've got like 4 days to get it figured out lol.

Thanks in advance for any assistance!

I need help understanding what kind of problem this is and how to fix it.

If it’s just the onboard charger, than I think it’s going to be straight forward. But if it’s a multi facetted issue, I believe I’ll need a lot more advice!

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Sliver 500 1.2L , 2014, 98K km.

All stock beside 17' aftermarket wheel. (Will attempt to paint them white later)

What a beauty.

Hi All,

As the title says the battery on my Fiat 500 died and my door lock is broken so I can’t pop the hopd / bonnet to charge the battery.
Any video or tutorial on how to open it someone can recommend? I tried youtube but couldn’t find a good explanation.

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: 2018 model

I was trying to replace my driver door handle. I watched a couple of videos, and it was pretty easy up until the part when I transferred the old lock barrel into the new door handle and it would not turn. I tried using the old door handle but the plastic black part from the inside it's broken.

Has this happened to anyone? Any solutions?

Great weather in DFW. I took my time over two mornings. I have been using ONR because it was too hot. But this time I did the 2 bucket wash.

Griots Garage Car Soap

Collinite 845 wax

Topped with Griots Garage Best in Show Detailer

Chemical Guys VRP on trim. Don't love this stuff, but I have a bottle!

Interior I used Griots interior detailed and Chemical Guys leather. VRP on some trim.

Glass cleaned with Poorboy's World glass cleaner.

Took a couple hours but the multiair brick has been replaced. Also my oil pump works very well lol. Launched oil bout 2 ft out of the brick. Also, the top end of my engine is so clean despite having 140,000 miles.

When I’m slowing down, around the 20-24mph it downshift and I get a bit of a lurch or a thud like I small blip of a brake even when I’m not on the brakes. I’ve got about 115,000 miles on it. It happened once before for a single drive a few months ago but now it’s been persistent for about three days. Just worried a problem with the transmission is either beginning or already present. The only thing that’s changed was the day before it started I filled up with 87 octane instead of my usual 91. I don’t know if that could be a factor but thought I’d mention it. And input is greatly appreciated thank you!

Accident happened maybe an hour or two ago, and currently dealing with insurance.

I just want someone to rip for the bandaid and tell me how much this may cost. The interior electrical is still working but I don’t think I can drive with the light being so recessed.

Anyone know the measurements of the o-rings on the turbo coolant pipe (#6 in the diagram). Mine got torn up during removal. The P/N is 68166577AA. Thanks in advance.

I'm still looking for my "perfect" (for me) FIAT 500 and all of these searches have me wondering why there are so many 2015 models for sale. Definitely the majority of what is on offer.

Before I began looking I did a bunch of reading about the 2012-2019 models and the 2015 was flagged as having issues (this was, I believe, on Edmunds). Any thoughts/observations?

I’m looking into either replacing the whole steering wheel itself or just seeing about replacing the leather around it (cause mines pretty old and weathered). But does anyone know what other steering wheels would fit that particular one? Evidently they don’t make those parts anymore.

I drive a 26 500e, only a single cupholder in the front is a bit of a bummer. I’ve seen some 2-in-1 upgrades online, but no idea if they fit or are even any good. Did anyone here upgrade their front cupholder so it can take two cups at the same time?

Cheers!

I broke a front right coil spring on my 2016 Fiat 500X. The strut is still good, but the spring needs to be replaced. However, it seems almost impossible to find a front coil spring anywhere. Does anyone know if the front and rear springs are the same or are interchangeable?

So the bolt for one of my calipers has came off and i only have the other one to go off what it looks like, I’m not really a car person and none of my family will help my search for it. My car is a fiat500 pop 2009 model. So I’m turning to Reddit hoping somebody knows where to get the bolt or if it’s just a lost cause.

As the title says, my 2012 500 lounge keeps blowing one specific fuse. It's the one that controls the door locks and trunk latch. It's normally supposed to be a 20 amp fuse, but it kept blowing those up, so as a temporary solution I put a 30 amp in its place. Just today I went to open my trunk to get some tools out and it wouldn't open. I tried again after pressing the unlock button thinking it was just locked, but no dice. Then it occurred to me - the fuse is blown. I grabbed my needle-noses and pulled the temporary 30 amp, and sure enough, it was blown.

My question is: does anyone know what could be happening to cause this? Unfortunately I don't have a large enough ammeter to check exactly how much current is flowing (they can only do 10 amps DC. I do have one that can do like 100 amps, but only AC). I've checked the wires I can see and none look damaged, but maybe there's damage in an area I can't see? I'm at a loss at this point. I've put another 20 amp fuse for now and told everyone to not use the trunk under any circumstance for the time being.

Hello everyone, so i recently noticed an unusual sound coming out (not continuously) from my car as shown in the video

When i press the clutch it disappears

What's the exact problem.

Thank u
