Hi Newbie here

Anyone out there tow with a Fiat Multipla ? Ours is a 115 jtd and struggled a little on hills when towing the van i got from ebay home, had to change down, lol am i lazy or what? but other than that towed great, fuel consumption suffered as expected, but not sure by how much, plus it always suffers when i drive, i have a lead right foot.

Getting the ECU remapped Weds to give it a bit more oooomph when we are all fully loaded up to go away friday for the first time (not the first time i have towed or caravaned, just not for a while or with new family) if anyone wants to know the results of an ECU remap feel free to ask, but not until the 19th

If I remember correctly the Caravan Club used a Multipla as a tow car over quite a period and the report on it was very good. I do not know if you can get that report but I believe it was in the last couple of years.

Ok thanks , I had heard something about the multipla being good, i thought it was a caravan magazine tho that used one, but maybe i am wrong.

Hope to have a gallery when we come back from our first week away and will report on how it towed with the ECU remap if anyone is interested
