Autotrail Apache problem (1 Viewer)

[spireite]

Bought a brand new Autotrail Apache 700 se 4 weeks ago, yellow engine warning light on within hours, checked out by supplier who advised ok to drive as we had a week booked in Devon for our first trip,,,,,ran like a dream got more than 25 mpg, perfect as a motorhome,,BUT THEN we booked into Fiat on our return to look at the fault,,,,2 weeks later just been advised fault is clear,,,picking it up tomorrow,,,,anyone else had any similar issues,,,,,,,,,,,hopefully just a blip

Did they tell you the code or just cleared it and hope it don't return
It has been known for blips to happen,like every other day in my gameoh:

Finally have a motorhome to look at

Hi ,
Just picked the Autotrail Apache back up from Fiat, to get to the fault they had replaced, Throttle Boot, Vapour Oil element, then found that during refit the fuse box had been left out to elements instead of in the battery component,,,,so were getting wet,,,,,,,,,,,whoopee they are back where they should be,,,,driving like a dream....a very happy chap,,,,Devon next week, then Brecon 2 weeks later, then off to the Loire Valley in August :thumb:

i had an engine warning lamp come on in mine once
it turned out to be that i had pressed the accelerator pedal during its switch on check and it read as a fault. so now i make sure i dont touch the pedals until all the lights have come on and gone off.
