Re: Concerns with temperature

Fiat Parts and Alfa Romeo Parts from Shop4Parts have it listed, but £256 for the GTA, I didn't realise it was that more expensive than standard (aparantly that is a 20% saving!)

Could also try ebspares?

Re: Concerns with temperature

Alfa Workshop charged me 120 quid for one plus fitting (don't have that broken out as I had a load of other work done at the time). You could also consider having it re-cored if that's the problem. Had that done on my 156 at my local garage.

Nice meeting you at Brooklands BTW, pity you were only in the Coupe...

Cheers,

Nigel

Re: Concerns with temperature

Thanks Ferryman, nice to meet you to, you can understand why I didnt bring the GTA was not really ready for a long journey, 120 seems fair price will get a price on a re-core as well

Re: Concerns with temperature

No its not (compared to an Alfa dealer of over 300 quids) , just wish I didnt have to buy one just yet, I suppose part of Alfa ownership , I have never bought a rad for any of my cars and I have lost count of what I have owned

Re: Concerns with temperature

Sadly I've had to have the rad replaced on both my 156s. Seems to be another consumable, like most of the suspension parts. But don't you just love that GTA?

Cheers,

Nigel
