Whilst one of our Sportwagons happily sailed through yet another mot test, I was slightly concerned and embarrassed that she peeed coolant all over the testers four post lift. Turned out to be the hoses from the thermostat to the heater matrix were a shadow of their former selves. No one seemed...

How to remove 156 2.4jtd 10v Power steering pump. Bad knocking noise when engine is running. When I remove the aux belt noise is gone when running the engine. Noise seems high leading me to pas pump... Or alternator... Noise betwixt engine and firewall. Every bit of advise will be appreciated...

As some of you might know, the 156.net forum is no more. We knew that the site was going down for a while (lack of traffic) so I took the opportunity to save some of my (hopefully) useful threads. Remove the Egr valve. Two 6mm Allen bolts going into captive nuts on the pipe, then 2 13mm bolts...

Hi Guys I have done a little bit of work to my 10V SW, but now i need some advice from people with clutch expereince in their cars. 2.4JTD 10 with remap, 6 speed box and a SMF. There is suspension & brakes etc, but not going into that now. I fitted a GTA clutch in August but within 2 months it...

My well looked after 1999 Fiat Marea Weekend 2.4JTD 5CYL failed MOT horrendously due underside corrosion otherwise its simply too good to send to local breakers. I believe its the same engine as used in the early 156 2.4JTDs presumably some other ancillaries are compatible. Engine 98k with...

Hello! i have a problem with my Alfa again :D It started some time ago as I noticed it took slightly longer to crank on startup. Then the other day after stalling the engine on the lights, the engine took some serious cranking to get it fired up again. This happened one more time and then the...

Hi Guys Clutch on my family wagon 2.4JTD has just gone. 165K miles on the clock and it has had a remap. The car gets a hard life from doing towing aswell. Anyway, i am pretty sure the dual mass flywheel is completely shagged aswell! So wondering whether i should do the single mass flywheel with...

Hi Guys, My 166 is back from maintenance after a turbocharger rebuilding and EGR replacement, and I was wondering what are your opinion on possible maintenance for an old and lived engine like mine (that has 358.000 km). Currently I don't sense any particular problem/noise/strange behavior a...

Hi i fitted a new mellet turbo chra to my 156 (turbine vanes were damaged). I set the stop screw by comparing it to the old turbo comparing how much the vanes are open when at the stop and measuring. I also fitted a second hand actuator of another 2.4jtd 10v as the old one was rotten. The...

Hi Guys, Can anyone help me out. I need the Inlet and Outlet Valve clearance figures on the 2.4 JTD 10V so I can check which shims must be replaced. The noise apart from the diesel rattle which i got used to is driving me crazy. Regards Tony

I've had my 156 since 2008 and 32k miles, now at 133k miles. Great car and still enjoy her over a 100,000miles later.

Hi all, long time ago sine I did my last posting on here. Today I nearly finished my cp3r90 conversion on my Alfa 156 2.4 JTD 10V. The reason for doing this is quite clear. I alredy maxed out a BMW R70 CP1 high pressure pump. The conversion is in fact simple as *****. I chose a cp3R90 out of...

Dear friends! Firstly I read many interesting build in this site and got a spirit for more power. Summer i will put a GTB2056 on my 1.9 16V 140HP with FMIC. The exhaust is already empty, only empty pipe from the turbo. The 2056 with a good remap how many bhp will get? I seen many cars here with...

I have a question - someone else might have experienced this. I have a new (to me, it has 137K on the clock) 2.4 SW. I think it is the 140 HP version. It goes well, and there is (of course) a thread started in the image lounge. I have noticed this since I got it. If I leave it for a...

Hi sorry if this has already been covered here I had a quick look but couldn't find anything. The car has started to make a loud induction noise which at first I thought was the exhaust but on investigating has turned out to be induction noise. I have checked all the pipes but there all sound...

I'm planning an oil & filter change today. Before I discover I need something I don't have, - I'm reading assorted comments via Google that it's a bit of a pig to do....the 20v being worst. Can the 10v's filter be removed using a strap, or do I need something different to remove it?

Ever since I've owned my 156, when accelerating from lowish revs (especially in 4th and top) the engine management warning comes on and momentarily cuts the revs - which can be a little hairy when overtaking. It will sometimes do it in third but generally you can rev through it. I spoke to a...

Hello to my new family :thumbup:. I just bought an Alfa 156 2.4JTD 2003 10v and looking at rebuilding it back to its glory. I am new to this brand and new to the happenings of the car. I am excited and from what I have been reading this is a library :teacher::read: of valuable information...

Hi all, I currently have a 2004 156 1.9 jtd m-jet, I'm thinking about buying a 2.4 pre facelift jtd and was just wondering if anyone had any advice, thoughts, preferences etc as to what to expect. I've looked at the specs, performance, mpg, bhp etc and they look very similar but as I have never...
