Has any Punto owner got Ecodrive working in their car? I've tried multiple times, keep trying with latest downloaded Ecodrive every now and then, but no luck so far. It's always "USB Error 10".

Following features i miss in my Linea :
1. No Blue & ME NAV Fiat / Blue&Me

2. No Blue & Me Maps Fiat / Blue&Me

3. No EcoDrive (not available for Linea anywhere in the world) Fiat.co.uk | Eco Drive - Homepage


Regarding EcoDrive, i would like to request all Punto owners to give a feedback on this Software . If you have not used it so far i suggest you follow the link above and download and start using it.

FIAT 500 owners can also experience the EcoDrive feature. Please update your experiences.

I guess Lineans will have to wait till FIAT feels that they have enough Linea's on the Road

You can definitely use the ecodrive for Linea , the only problem is that they dont have the Indian Version Linea enlisted on it ( in fact, they don't have India listed there either :P ) But, that shouldn't be a problem as the results would still be the same. I am currently using is for my Linea and I am pretty impressed by it.
It isn't very detailed and everything, but yes, it does give out a lot of data which we could never have known previously.and it also helps in improving your drving. It almost feels like you are driving an F1, with all the team trying and helping you to improve your "Green" factor. You should definitely try it.

hi, Got your problem. Well, No. But yes, if you are looking only for the features, You should try a certain GPS-System from MapmyIndia or something .. it costs around 20k , and has Bluee tooth connectivity. it also has the Navigation set, and some other features which I am pretty sure would be needed by you , including the reverse-camera et al .. it's definitely a pickup..I havent used it myself, so let me know your experience. Cheers.

May be if you know people from Fiapl and who can write codes may be you can write a update and put it in USB and update the B&M and option might become available. if it works give is the program too

You were right. My colleague got a reply from fiat almost a month after he had sent them a mail regarding this problem.
Officially they have sent him a reply that there was no option to retrieve the contacts.
So my colleague has now started backing up his phone contacts onto his laptop.If only he had done this earlier...

Blue & Me 5.6 version update now available at http://www.blueandme.net/blueandme/index.aspx

Hope this enables EcoDirve in Punto. Will give it a try during the weekend.

Guys, Mods, I'm sorry about restarting a dead thread. Please move the post to a right location - I wasn't sure where this belongs!

My Blue&Me unit (Linea Emotion Pack) has gone kaput and a new one costs 12k I'm told. Now I do not want an aftermarket head unit because the stock config works just fine for me.

I do understand, however, that any people have upgraded their head units etc and do not use the Blue& Me module. Would anyone in the forum be willing to part with their B&M modules, I'd be willing to make an offer - and you'd be helping out a fellow Fiat lover save some money!

Thanks in advance :-)

Sincerely,
Santosh
