For 140k miles, that FIAT is in damn good shape! Good find, Randy
Lots of great luck on that scoop, especially the dual fob action. They get a noisy bearing in the transmission. Lift it up, get a grip on both ends of cv axle going in to case, their should not be much play. If it feels like a teeter totter, might need a rebuild, but you will save mucho time if your axles still look happy, and at that milage, they are on their second set.
About the best available for gas milage, power, no turbo, and a nice vvt boost over ~4,200 rpms.
Sporty buttony-just changes electronic ratios of pedal/steering input to actual response on the other side of firewall.
My wife bought a brand new Fiat 500X in 2016 it was loaded Italian leather seats power everything pull me over red. She paid 26500.00 ish and 5000 miles and 14 months later sold It to Carmax for 13 grand. Talk about loosing half it's value the moment you drove it off the lot. Fiat of roseville offered her 11500 for it. Didn't even want the car back. It was a blast to drive in sport mode but that was it.
Sounds like gear whine. Still, it's amazing that it runs that well. Must have had a lot of servicing. Here in New Zealand, you don't touch them unless you get a cast iron mechanical warranty. Parts are quite scarce and expensive. Fiat has a very poor reputation for quality here too
...oh, curses!!!
also in Germany.......i know no person who get lucky with one of those cars
@@kormoranneu5715 ich kenne da einige, die diese Fahrzeuge gern, zuverlässig und lange fahren……..
@@kormoranneu5715 Wrong. One in the family now with 220000km without any major issues. Matter of maintenance.
@@alfa7561 Yep. Abarth with 240,000 miles (miles, not KM) here.. Never needed any internal engine or gearbox work (just servicing & occasional normal consumable stuff like coil packs & sensors).
Check to see if transmission has fluid. If it's low, I believe Lucas has a manual transmission additive.
Sounds more like the synchro gears in the transmission fixed a few of them over the years
Love the positivity, randy hope you and yours have a great new year. And also this channel you've created grows with you.
"Brake cleaner removes sticky residue", now this is why I watch AAR because every once in a while Randy lays a golden nugget, honestly, thank you Mr Shear.
It has acetone, hence it's effectiveness. Acetone eats up paint, too, so be careful.
That sound Randy is probably not a throw out bearing. I’m pretty sure it’s the bearing on the input shaft in the gearbox. If the noise goes away when you depress the clutch pedal it’s probably because the pressure on the bearing goes away. But to “mechanical total” the car is crazy. Just find a gearbox in the junkyard and the car will be fine. It’s actually god cars and a very popular car over here in Europe😉
Happy new year Randy. Thanks for youre time and videos really i enjoy alot. Have a great 2022 full of healthy, love and peace.
Happy New Year's too you and your family. I got a fiat 500 sport I love it. The sport mode is for tighter handling n higher rpms. Keep up the work
Happy New Year's Randy Sweet Deal
Jay - Low special! Great buy, hoping she flips for a good profit! Good luck on the new year Randy!
Happy New Year Randy👍
What a nice little car.
Here in Europe it's a very popular car. Especially women like it very much.
They are definitely not as bad as they say. The multiair engines in fact are quite reliable as long as you change the oil regularly.
Sometimes the multiair modules go bad which is quite expensive to repair.
In fact here in Europe you don't see Fiats 500 with an multiair engine.
But they are in a lot of other Fiat and Alfa Romeo products.
Thanks for this cool video Randy 👍👌
Happy New Year Randy and Jessica. Thanks for these videos, I watch/enjoy them all. The Abarth would be a much more interesting car, I'm pretty sure you would enjoy that way more than this one.
Great little car there for a quick flip. Good stuff! Happy New Year to you and Jessica!
I believe you have another winner Randy, and the stick in it makes it even more so. If you were local I'd seriously consider this for the lady in my life. Happy New Year man, your the longest CZcams subscription I have and well worth it. Here's to another great year!
HAPPY New Year's to you and your family I hope all is well and thanks for the videos I really enjoy watching them
Happy new year, great video content😀🥳😎🇳🇴
Happy New Years and I been waiting to see this video 🙂
Happy New Years Randy
I did drive Fiat 500 for 5 years and never had one problem with it .
Still missing this car very much.
Did also drive brand new Jaguar and Jeep never ever again, problems all the time.
I worked for a dealer and we simply spray windex and use a razor blade . Everything comes off right away
Happy New Year Randy
Happy new year and yes great deal lot value around 5k love that content keep it pushing.
Happy new year Randy!!
Happy New Year to you and your family Randy
Happy New Year Randy🎉
With the car being 10 years old and with approx 140,000 miles on it, it’s time for a full timing belt service. The owners manual list the timing belt service at 10 years/100,000 miles. FIAT dealerships were doing the timing belt at 12 years/120,000 miles. The service includes changing the water pump, the tensioner and the pulley. Having the timing belt break would be very bad.
Happy New Year Randy, on that walk around with this car I commented for you to go for this car glad that you did.
Happy New Year Uberman
Happy New year randy
Randy, I fell in love with your channel because you bought cars, did some decent improvements to them, and then sold them. It seems that your channel has changed to buy and resell. I guess your breakup with WB did impact you a great deal. I hope you don’t forget your old ways that attracted long time faithful viewers like me.
I love watching the videos today as much as the ones in the past, but I do admit I miss the pick up, fixing, and then sending on videos of the past. Maybe as things get settled at the new place, maybe have a car every now and then that gets a little extra attention and videos.
@@dcpoolsvc I am waiting to see whether he will just put WatchJRGo’s diamonte to auction without doing anything to it. I like the fact that Randy still wears the same type of clothes. I am just so disappointed when he says I have no use of this car. There are only so many brands and models of cars. If he just buys and sells, he will go through cars too quickly. Don’t you notice that he started to buy and resell the same model of cars.
I think that its Randy's choice which cars or what is he going to do on his channel
That is gear whine in the transmission. When you clutch it the gears get unloaded and quiet down. Could be low on oil or a bad main shaft bearing causing the gears to misalign. Bad situation either way. Throw out bearing won’t make that noise while driving
It wouldn't be a problem pulling a replacement transmission from a junkyard if necessary. It's a C514 manual transmission used in all non-turbo models up to 2017.
Happy new year to you randy and your family
Happy new year to your Randy and your family
Happy new year randy.lovely little car.👍
I like your video and I hope you and your family have happy New Year Randy .
Finally got a Ridge, I cannot believe I waited that long to switch. I love my titanium Ridge! Thank you for introducing me to the brand.
Randy starting this video with his weatherman voice.
Happy New Year Randy! That little Fiat is in excellent shape. I used to know someone who leased a brown Fiat 500 like this back in 2012.
Happy new year randy.. sounds like a throw out bearing but good little get around town car 😁 it’s cute
Good luck on the Fix It Again Tony car,happy new year.
Some times the tires can whine a bit.
I have a 2013 abarth 500 and I love it, it’s so much fun to drive and get phenomenal gas mileage for commuting, and in the non turbo cars like yours the sport button just makes the throttle a little more sensitive and tighter steering, but in the abarths or turbocharged 500s it makes the throttle more sensitive, tightens up the steering and allows the car to build full boost, with the sport button off in my car it only builds like 12psi max vs around 20lbs with sport on
Happy New Years Randy, Liked car n vid
Happy New Years Brother. Good pickup on the fiat, hopefully you'll make some $$ on it as a run & drive.
"HAPPY NEW YEAR" to you Randy, and your family. That Fiat is my type of car! Skin So Soft from Avon works fantastic on removing sticky stuff, and so forth, and no damage.
Happy New Year Randy!
Hi Randy happy new year
Happy New Year and many more profitable rebuilds in 2022!
Happy new year randy for you and family i hop wen st good luck
Happy new year every one
Loving the brake cleaner idea Randy for the copart sticker/writing removal 👍
Happy new year 🥳
Happy New Year

Happy new year Randy
Happy New Year Randy From Canada
Great video where is the DEAD AS A DOOR NAIL merchandise lol
Happy new year randy
Happy New Year sir
Happy New Year to you and yours! Thank you for your hard work. Looking forward to al the new content coming on 2022.
Happy New Year!!
Happy New year’s
Yeck I would definitely drive that car to get back and forth to work stay blessed Randy and happy new year to you and your family
Randy, my comment about having cleaned the car only to send it back to a dusty lot was not a reflection of you, but of where they are auctioned. Too bad you did not have a cleaner venue available to you for selling the vehicles. The cars should be bringing in more money that what you have been getting for them. Happy New Year!
Another little tip on the window lettering. Just scribble over it with a dry erase marker, let it sit for a second or two, then it will wipe right off
An Italian car, best way to start 2022! Glad that you appreciated it, here in Italy they are very common and loved. Greetings from Milan, Italy!
Let's say It depends on who you ask some Italians hate fiats lol
For what you paid its an amazing deal. You should keep it
Happy new year! I owned a fiat 500 and the motor blew up within the first two months of owning it. So yeah, I hate them
Well since I officially finished watching it I know now you got a amazing deal. Hopefully you double your money at auction. I also would like to thank you and Jessica for everything you do on the channel and everything you both have done to help me out as well in my recent loss. I hope you both have a wonderful New year.
I’m sorry for your recent loss bro. Glad we could help in some small way. I knew you hadn’t watched the video lol
@@AutoAuctionRebuilds we just brought her home last night, her urn is beautiful. Still very hard to believe she's gone. Eventually I will learn to live with it. Just got to remember the good memories and keep her memory alive.
It's such an Amazing deal! I wish I could have one like this small car. Good luck
I have a 2013 fiat 500 Sport turbo, there are pros and cons about it. With street pro tires I was able to take corners going 90mph and held just fine, off-roading was like a 4/10, it’s a little zippy go cart beat a couple badly tuned Subarus kept up with some genesis’s. But a few cons are the windshield is super thin so a rock bounces off cracks immediately, suspension issues around 85,000 miles. But so far the funnest car I’ve driven.
Sweet little deal there Randy
Love, love, love this car Randy!! I love that you don't care what people think when you buy these cars! It makes those of us that like the strange and offbeat cars feel that much more into what you're doing. Hope y'all have a Happy New Year!
Well said!
@@thomasallen6980 wow ! It's a new year and yet simple minds still seem to be using the internet to talk crap!
well built, quality cars arent the content Randy is looking for.
Happy NY Randy and family. Looking forward to another year of your unique contact. Perhaps you could make up with WB?
Looks like the hood is duck taped to the fenders 🤣🤣🤣
Happy New Year to you and your family
Randy, could you work out a deal with a used car dealer to move your vehicles? It seems like you are leaving money on the table running them through that insurance wreck outfit.
Happy New Year!!
Happy New Year Randy.
Happy New Year to you as well!
Happy new year to you and your family
Too bad you're not keeping it. I really love the color and the wheels. Great little car you bought.
The Fiat sounds like either like a throwout bearing or wheel bearing going bad. Sport is supposed to change the shift points of the transmission. In a manual it changes the air-fuel ratio somewhat for a faster take-off and changes the steering ratio for 'better feel' of the car.
New name for the channel. Auto Auction Resale.
Can’t wait for the mustang video!!
Happy New Year to You Jessica and Nick. FYI. If you have furniture or anything else from the old house you want to get rid of fast and make some $. Post them on Facebook Marketplace. 😁
Happy New Year!
You have to like it small and Fiat 500 satisfies all of the conditions. Just bought from Copart and after some repairs it comes out pretty good.
Happy New Year Randy, man you should’ve bought that red Honda Accord from last video. It looked pretty decent and for a good price, I don’t see why it would be a bad little car.
That generation of Accord was easily one of the best cars ever made.
The noise is most probably from the transmission. As it is manual so there is a strong chance that the transmission flywheel is bad or it is simply low on transmission fluid. I am not sure if this car has a rear differential but also check rear differential fluid. Giving you a feedback on a video after almost an year. HAPPY NEW YEAR & STAY BLESSED
Wheelzy is a "we pay cash for Junk car / busted clunkers" company... just sold one to them two weeks ago.. so you got a gem
The handle on my 2012 broke the other week lol. The odometer starter blinking at 80k. Other than 2 batteries breaks tires 2 alternators and 1 starter oh and a throttle body 93k miles no other issues.
You did good Randy sir. You drove, you washed and now it’s time to send it on its way.
Im owner of a Fiat punto here in spain and drive's great...the 500 is a classic one here in europe they are good cars
I had to watch this again, when I visited Oregon last I rented a Mazdaspeed 3 from Turo and had one of these little guys trying to race me 😂 I rented the car so I wasn’t going to race but it intrigued me because I didn’t know a lot about these cars before that one caught my attention. He had it lowered and tuned but idk how fast it really was, I don’t race in city traffic 🥴
Denatured alcohol will also take off the markings and the tape residue.
Randy, I tried to find the Honda Pilot 2012 .It was not listed. Please let me know how to find it. Thank you, Hector.
