My 159 has the usual creaking front upper suspension arms, so decided to replace them as it is a relatively straightforward task. On the replacement arms, I noticed that the inner part of the rear bush in one of them would slide and rotate easily, but on the other side it was solid and would...

Guys Can any one advice me on the finish for the clutch arm? was it painted? or a metal finish? Just in the process of putting every thing back together and then the bleeding will commence! Thanks

Hi all, I had the an issue with my upper control arm nut, that it kept spinning in place and I had to use a dremel to cut it off! But now I don't know what nut is required! Does anyone know what spec nut is required for the upper control arm ball bearing?

My engine is in limp mode and would like to lock the swirl flaps. I have read about disconnecting the balljoint from the actuator arm. However it looks like that this is different for a 1.9 jtdm 16v. I cannot find this balljoint. All subjects are for the 2.4 engines. Is it possible to lock swirl...

hi guys, nice easy one, do the lower wishbones creak loudly once they're done? I got in my Brera 2.4jtdm the other morning, and its developed a horrendous creaking (seemingly overnight?) when driving on bumpy roads, and when turning the wheels while stationary. I instantly thought wishbone...

I need the small arm with the splined hole and holds the brake cable nipple.

I changing out the distributor cap and rotor arm (Bosch). What is the consensus of opinion regarding gluing the rotor arm in as per the 'official' advice or not bothering?

I've a 147 Ducati and I'm trying to remove the clutch actuator arm so that I can try and lubricate the bushes on the shaft as my clutch feels awful after about 20/30 mins (but does this sporadically), but it's well seized on to the splines. This is the 2nd time I've tried and it's still...

This weekend I have had to replace the offside lower suspension arm due to the ball joint failing the MOT. I did the nearside one a couple of years ago without issue. I managed to do the nearside without removing the Disc and Calliper so I thought using the same method would work on the offside...

Hi Anyone know if there is a simple way to get the centre arm rest detached from the driver's seat? I have some seat covers I want to fit and think this would let me make a small hole rather than large slit in the cover. Thanks

I'm in the middle of changing my suspension, drop links and control arms. The offside/rh/uk drivers side control arm has a sensor bolted to it via a couple of arm joints. Typically the replacement swing arm doesn't have the bracket for this so back to parts shopping ? Does anyone know what that...

Hi all, I've had a look and can only find reference to the driver's side arm not clearing the screen so apologies if this is somewhere on site (I'm clearly not searching correctly!) This was self-inflicted... Having gotten used to clearing the screen with the 156 wipers once the heater has...

I've got a front upper arm to replace - can anyone advise how far the front suspension needs to be dismantled to achieve this? I'm hoping it's only a question of splitting the upper ball joint and unbolting the upper arm - but is it also necessary to unbolt and drop the upper arm/strut top...

Hi all the arm rest in Giulia has gone flat where my arm rests on it. Its not so obvious to look at, but run your hand over it and you can feel a dent. there is very little padding left there. My car is 7 months old, and has done 4300 miles or so. can you check yours to see if you have the...

Does any knowledgeable person out there know the difference in length of the rear radial arms in the standard 147 v the GTA?

I have a brand new and genuine rear left radius arm for sale for the Alfa 145/146 models without ABS (it doesn't have the small hole at the rear of the arm for the ABS sensor). Part number on arm is 46519895 which apparently also relates to 46519893. Please PM for further details and price.

To distract me from the post cam belt change noise problem (see other thread) i thought i'd sort out the upper wishbone on my 147 project. Thought i was doing well with all bolts out and upper ball joint separated but i just can't get the strut separated from the upper mount. I've left the...
