try changing the wiper relay in the fues box, it might be u/s and sending wrong signal to motors hope this helps

I'm dealing with the same issues on mine: check the speedo cable is properly hooked up on the back of the instrument panel and at the sender on the transmission. Check your electrical connections and fuses are ok for all the other instruments.

You need new heater plugs by the sound of it.
could be possible fuel pump starting to fail but unlikely if its just when cold.

If engine turn's clockwise, remove to left, if it turn other way remove to right.

There are other, professional ways to get the bonnet open without having to break anything. Have someone push down on the hood a bit while someone else pulls on the release. If that doesnt work, you can get behind the grill and access the release by going under grill, find hood latch and pull release.
The misfire can be a number of things. Check for spark,Install a spark tester between spark plug and wire. If there is no spark, check wire, module, coil. If there is spark, check plug, Perform a compression check.

there a problem with the injectors you will have to get the fault codes read

is the lock spinning? are you having trouble unlocking/locking it? you have to fiddle with the keys i found there is one for the doors that fits fine and one for the back doors they are spinning locks and designed that way, Try pushing it in as far as you can to catch. or spinning the lock 180 degrees and pushing. Did the trick for me

4 litres i think. If you unsure just drain the sump pan. Refit the plug and pour it in 1ltr at a time. go steady tho coz the strada is slow filling pour it too fast and you end up rust proofing your garage floor. LOL

Sounds like you have a misfire. basiclly the engine is only running on 3 cylinders instead of 4. The cause of this could be a spark plug, plug lead or ignition coil failure. I would go for the cheapest first, so a new set of spark plugs and leads would not go a miss.

The engine warning light is on because its either picking up the wrong resistance through a coil which indicates coil failure, or its picking up hydrocarbons(unburnt fuel) through the catalyst due to a faulty plug or lead.. If you want the exact source of the fault, a garage can plug a computer into your car and tell you where the fault lies.

First thing is to remove clean & tighten all connections to & from battery, and see if that helps.

It could be tranny fluid, or your tranny may be screwed
change the fluid and filter and see what that does.

thanks.

No replace it, the noise is because the belt is glazed from heat and wear.

Sounds like you got some bad gas. I would either try an additive to remove water and some octane boost. If that doesn't work you will need to drain the tank. This has been a real problem with the price of gas going up. Some stations in my area have been shut down for putting water in the gas. If it was running fine before you got gas, then more than likely this is your problem.

Rtae this as a Fixya if this solves your problem. Ask more questions if you need to.
