    Can't reconnect speedo cable back into instrument cluster

    I managed to disconnect it (miracle), now I can't connect it back: - its located behind in the middle of the instrument cluster, little to no space for hands - speedo cable needle is square, but rotated correctly in same way as the port of instrument cluster = port for the speedo cable /...

    What triangle sensor is this?

    model - 1.7 1998; I ordered this speed sensor https://ibb.co/hRQfN6T, but now I see it is not the same one I have on my transmission. (I couldn't upload images via attachments, so here are links:) Is this the correct one? https://www.autodoc.co.uk/meat-doria/10356904

    air filter ripped, throttle body stuck *fixed

    Air filter was soaking wet and got ripped in the middle by snow after last ride. Replaced it with new one after 3 days but in that time the road salt (which got sucked through the filter) froze around the throttle body flap. That caused messed up air flow - cleaned it and engine runs ok

    speed sensor blows electronic engine control fuse

    I had mine transmission+clutch changed and now when I plug speed sensor in the Electronic engine control fuse (15V) gets blown right after I turn the key into 2nd position, not even 3rd (in 3rd it doesn't even crank). Also no fuel pump noise! Already had some issues with that sensor due to...

    Transmission leaking [“fixed”]

    For 100$ I got a used transmission from other 1.7 puma and had it replaced with clutch at the same time. Fixing an old transmission that leaks ain’t worth the effort.

    Engaging reverse leaks brake fluid

    Nasty brake fluid leak next to left front wheel after I engaged reverse and I couldn't disengage it afterwards - I had to switch off the engine, then putting it into neutral. I was in a hurry so I topped the brake fluid reservoir, started the car and drove home. Same story with parking in...

    foglight covers keep falling off

    did someone try to fix them in place for good? I got a 2nd pair and not planning to lose them again. Lost original ones thanks to potholes if yes, how did you do it? I can't seem to think of anythin simple yet effective enough, mostly due to almost 0 work space in that area and minimal...

    Fan goes full speed when cold engine idles

    Fan goes crazy straight after I start the engine. From the moment engine starts running it takes 3-5s for fan to spin slower speed and second later it goes full speed. Some notes: Fan behaves normal when puma moves but when it just idles the fan kicks in again almost right after I stop. Engine...

    Hard turns ABS lights on

    Being honest I don't drive the puma easy on weekends. Perfect twisted roads in my local area were made for such car and it handles them very well. In sharp ~90° turns when tyres start squeaking at such speeds the ABS and traction control light on. They go off after each abs self test when...

    4 red rear lights instead of 2

    Puma has 1 red light in the row of a single rear light setup. I would like to know if someone ever tried to implement to have 2 red lights in each row of rear lights while keeping reverse & turn signal lights functional Post any of your opinion, ideas, tips (or criticism) below please <3

    Changing interior lights?

    I'm about to do it. Green lights on the dash and everywhere else are looking outdated. So far I put a lot of work into rest of the car to make it last another few years and I would love to make some updates for the interior too. How many LEDs and what sizes to change?: - dash board - window...

    Temperature gauge goes straight to hot [FIXED]

    When it happened: 30°C outside, I had windows down and AC off. Sudden hot air came through vents and temperature gauge was above "hot mark". I quickly parked in shadow and let engine cool for 30min, temp. gauge was still stuck at the same spot, even when power was off. Update: After...
