Hi Everyone!

Ive had my Giulietta for a few weeks and so far its been petty good. Ive developed a couple of annoying niggles. Would anyone be able to shed some light on them? Here's a short list:

1. There is a weird bang downshifting from 3rd to 2nd.
2. The turbo boost falls of steeply after 3000rpm
3. Sixth gear is really hard to put in sometimes after overtaking on a freeway in 5th.

I will be going to the dealer later this week, so any thoughts from you guys?

I look forward to being an active member of the club!

I dont think your car should be doing any of those things, you should bring it back to the dealer right away!

How do you mean the turbo boost falls off after 3000rpm? I would expect the opposite, little boost at 3000rpm but building to full boost by around 4000rpm
