2008 fiat Doblo reviews

fiat Doblo reviews by year of make:   2002  2005  2007  2008  Read all reviews

Few panel vans have received the level of recognition awarded to the Fiat Doblo. In 2006, this leisure activity vehicle was named International Van of the Year and continued to break boundaries for innovation. The Fiat Doblo first entered the market in 2001 and despite its Italian heritage has been produced in countries as far-reaching as Brazil, Russia, Turkey and Vietnam. The Fiat Doblo was restyled in 2005 and there have been many electric versions of the van produced. Indeed in 2007, an all-electric version of the Fiat Doblo was unveiled, taking the vehicle into a new era.

Fiat Doblo 1.3 multijet 2008

2 star review

I have had a Fiat Doblo 1.3 multijet from new, 2008 as a motability vehicle. From the first day of driving the vehicle the door sensors were showing doors open, buzzing and even your indoor lights flashing when driving in the evening. I have had to turn the alert buzzer off via the menu system as it was driving me nuts. Had the rear door lock replaced, no different. ABS failure alert when starting up and periodically getting air bag error, resetting of the date time and mpg data etc. Obviously to me it certainly seams an electrical fault. But getting a solution seems bleak. Accelorator pedal sticking. Been back with it to the dealers without much success. This is a shame as otherwise I would have found the vehicle ideal for my mobility needs. It’s comfortable, plenty of room, and great boot space. The size of the engine is pretty good for a 1.3 engine and it drives well. The customer service is very poor from Fiat, I certainly will not be looking in getting another one. The 2 rating is because I have so far not had a solution to the faults in question.

Fiat Doblo 2008

4 star review

Have had our Doblo from new in April 2008, please with vehicle but not dealer. Day 1 couldn’t lock as dodgy sensor on back sliding door-obviously not PDi’d properly, also hardly sent out properly de-waxed and cleaned for a new vehicle. Loud clunck when steering on full lock-service manager said Fiat ’know about it’ and are working on modification-wait till 1st service. Since then clutch noise/burn and smell. Dealer have now booked in to get both problems sorted under warranty-want car for at least a week, it goes in next week-will keep you posted.
