Hi all
I own a 2003 147, and have heard horror stories about early cam belt failure.
My 147 has only done 32000 miles but I suspect a belt change is in order - does anyone know of a good Alfa specialist in the south Warwickshire/Gloucestershire area?

Cheers

Paul

Hello and welcome to AO Paul

On the Twin Spark engines they recommend a cambelt change every 36,000 miles or every 3 years. It's also best to have the cambelt kit fitted
