Hi All,

My car has covered 1000 kms yesterday. So far no major issues except the GC. I am driving as consciously as I can over the speed breakers. In city I am getting a mileage of around 13.5 kmpl and in the recent highway drive, I got an average of 16 kmpl(too much traffic due to road work on the kolar route). The average speed as shown on the console during the highway drive was 35 KMPH.

I hope the city and the highway mileage should improve.

My other issues regarding the power windows buttons has been resolved. The seat height adjuster is still a open issue. Prerana motors has confirmed that once they get the new assembly, they will replace the assembly.

It doesn't. When trying to set it up on the system, the application does not list our country and if you select any other country and try to setup your car details, Linea is not in that list

just browsing the ebay for some accesories for my linea and guess what? I saw an add for sale of Linea

I got a mail from mangesh, he confirmed that the eco drive is still not available for linea

sharanramesh · 4th November 2009, 11:58

could you check with Mangesh, whether this can be tested on the Punto even though we do not reside in any of the countries mentioned in the software?

Vasanth great to have you with us here. Dont worry about the plastics. They're good apart for 2-3 bits. Have you seen/felt ANHC's dashboard?

Off late I am having trouble with my Blue & Me. When I try to pair, the phone still shows connecting to Blue & Me and takes a long time.. Finally it fails. I have tried with blackberry and with nokia e72, no luck at all.

Also how can one find out what the is current version of Blue&ME that is installed.

geeash · 23rd April 2010, 16:21

There are 2 options for you.

1. first go to settings and user data and delete all and try re pairing.
2. if it is still not working, open the bonnet and disconnect the battery both terminals and then leave it for half an hour and then replug it and then try to re pair the phone it will work.

All linea comes with 5.3 version of Blue and me and 5.4 update is available at the fiat website if you want to update yourself

The bluetooth is back alive .. The TASC resolved it by disconnecting the battery

As ashwin suggested, this was only a user data corruption case. Next time I guess you can simple delete all user data and if similar thing happens.
