Vehicle
Fiat Bravo
The compact hatchback between the Punto and the Tipo, sold in two eras with a gap between them. The 2007 car shares the Grande Punto's platform and brings the 1.4 T-Jet — a turbocharged petrol whose wastegate actuator and diverter valve are the two items behind most of its boost codes — alongside the 1.6 Multijet that dominates the European fleet. Neither generation was sold in North America, so its written diagnosis is almost entirely European.

Information, not instruction
CarGeek is a reference, not a service manual. Its pages are written from public sources and from what other people have found, never from a manufacturer's own service information, so they can be wrong or incomplete for your particular vehicle. Some of what they describe carries real risk: high voltage, fuel under pressure, stored energy, hot and moving parts.
Have anything you intend to act on checked by a trained person against the manufacturer's own procedure for your vehicle. Nothing here replaces that procedure.

What makes one worth reading:
- The car — make, model, year and engine. The same fault behaves differently on each.
- What you measured, not only what you replaced.
- What actually fixed it — or that nothing did, which is worth knowing too.
