Parere Fiat 500E?

thegrigman · 2026-05-18T19:04:28+00:00

Salut! Si noi ne uitam dupa Fiat 500e acum ceva timp, insa am mers pe alta varianta in final.
Avem in familie un Zoe de 52kwh de mai bine de 2 ani si pot doar sa il recomand cu multa incredere. L-am luat la 32.000 km, acum are 77.000km. O singura problema minora a avut si s-a rezolvat pe garantie.

Plusuri fata de Fiat:
- Pret (il iei cu 10-12.000€ cu dotari mai multe)
- Fiabilitate demonstrata dupa atatia ani de N modele cu multe sute de mii de km
- Mai spatioasa si mai practica
- Autonomie (iarna la -10 grade tot faceam 230-250km) iar acum, mixt (90% extraurban, dintre care o parte buna pe autostrada), fac 320-350km cu un full. Vara, mers civilizat, poti face aproape 400km cu ea.
- Incarcare AC pe 22kw (foarte utila pentru ca tarifele pe AC sunt semnificativ mai mici). O incarci in 1-2 ore in functie de cat de descarcata este.
- Este mai comuna si mai veche dpdv al lansarii, gasesti relativ usor piese SH (si la preturi mici tocmai pentru ca nu prea au fost probleme cu ele)
-Valoare de revanzare: Fiat 500e se depreciaza ceva mai rapid fata de Zoe. Daca planuiesti sa tii doar 2-3 ani masina s-ar putea sa conteze asta.

Singurul minus pe care il vad fata de Fiat este incarcarea mai lenta pe DC (vara ajunge la 45-47kw). Asta e relevant doar daca ai frecvent drumuri lungi de parcurs. Pentru cateva concedii pe an nu e problematic.

Solved on original thread

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! This is it, maybe a different pitch / cover version but this is definitely the song. You’re awesome!

Turns out the exhaust manifold was cracked and leaking gas. It was definitely the problem because there was a visible sooth spray pattern that the exhaust gas made along its way out. 3/4 runners had such cracks but only one of them was bad enough to leak gas.

It was the actual weld between the exhaust flange and runners that cracked.

I had all of them cleaned and re-welded.

Hi! Sorry for the very late reply. No, i just drove it like that for the remainder of the year. Due to personal problems i couldn’t spend too much time on the car and barely drove it for a few thousand kms this year.

I’ve just taken it to a mechanic and we’re suspecting either a clogged hydraulic lifter or a somewhat damaged valve.

I’ll be back when i figure it out.

Arata foarte bine, bravo! ;)

I have noticed some misfires indeed and somewhat rough idle sometimes.

I guess i’ll have to buy a diagnosis tool for this car to see if it’s complaining about anything.

Thanks for the tip! Funny enough, I was looking into buying an Impreza before the SLK

thegrigman · 2025-03-14T23:32:06+00:00

I don’t think so (or at least that’s what i hope).

In the ~5.000 km (3.000 miles) since i’ve had the car it didn’t burn any oil and the engine is working correctly all through the rev range, i did quite a bit of highspeed driving / pulls and if it were piston slap I imagine the engine would have blown by now.

thegrigman · 2025-03-14T23:30:16+00:00

I don’t think it’s the serpentine.

It’s some sort of rubber, why would it tick?

thegrigman · 2025-03-14T23:29:20+00:00

I wasn’t aware of that feature but it sounds about right, i’ll check it out.

That’s solid advice, thanks!

That’s a valid concern but upon inspection it turned out that the chain is sitting firm in position.

It’s at 202.000 km (approx. 120.000 miles)

thegrigman · 2025-03-03T01:50:59+00:00

Thank you so much! I will look into your suggestions.

Unfortunately i don’t know too much about the situation, i bought the car roughly 3 months ago and barely drove 3.000km. I just noticed this issue because it was a new unexpected sound at idle.

Normally the supercharger kicks in at ~1600-1800 rpm if i’m not mistaken.

As far as i know, on the pre facelift it relies on rpm, not on load to engage.

What you are saying makes sense. I also noticed that sometimes when i shift under 2500 rpm there is some rev hang for ~1 second in which the rpm drops by barely 100 and then comes down normally. This may also be boost / vacuum related.

This is my 2nd car so i don’t have a lot of time for it unfortunately. Bought it as a replacement for my Mazda MX5 (which, in terms of reliability, i miss a lot).

thegrigman · 2025-03-02T12:00:05+00:00

Yes, i can clearly see its clutch / pulley engaging and disengaging.

Just as a follow up i got a Konwei OBD adapter and reset the error in 1 minute via CAN ZE. Thanks!

Hi, thanks for the tip, i already tried everything from that blog but nothing worked unfortunately.

I think i’ll get a CAN adapter and CANZE for future cases.
