derby

Hi All I have recently acquired my first Alfa Romeo After working for a company that was associated with Fords and having had a Focus as a Company car for the last 15 years, now that I have retired I decided to get something that was fun !! So I now have a 2011 Giulietta and I am loving it...

Hi everyone. Ive been let down and lied to by my current Alfa dealership so looking for a trusted dealership not too far away from me. I see that Beechdale Derby is within reach. Anyone got any experience with their servicing, good or bad? Need another garage to look after my QV

Has anyone used the dealer in Derby? I have done a compare on Carwow and they are coming up best for a new 2lt tct Speciale My local dealer is the worst. Alexander's in Teesside where I bought my current car in over £30 a month more. So much for loyalty. It's going to be 130ish miles trip to get...

Hiya everyone, I remember coming across this forum once or twice in the past and thought it would be well worth joining but have only just got round to it! Driving in Derby and on my third Alfa, a Giulietta 1.4tb veloce, after having a 159 and a 147 before. I think its fair to say I'm hooked...

hi all, does anyone know where I can get the ERG valve deleted/blanked from the engine map in Derby. Or can you get the fix scan dongle anywhere? Also is there a newer engine map that enables the glow plugs on startups all the time? Thanks :0)

I need to buy a new exhaust for my GT (cat back) and considering either the wizard or the scorpion. I want to hear one before I commit though so asking if I could hear one if anybody has one around Derby? Thanks in advance :thumbs:

Hi all, I have recently replaced the cc unit as the display was knackered and the stereo and now my odometer is flashing. This might be a little cheeky of me but is anybody able to reset the canbus in the East Midlands (Derby/Notts) area the flashing is getting rather annoying now lol. Cheers...

As the title suggest I need codes reading. Got an MCSF light on yesterday booting my JTD in 3rd, came on around 3000rpm. I do have a turbo breather pipe that needs replacing, but would like to get the error code read to see what pops up! No loss in power or funny sounds coming from the engine...

Hi all Just purchased a lovely 61 plate white G and was wondering if anyone has any feedback re Beechdale Alfa in Derby? One to stay away from or are they quite good? I need to arrange a service in 4k and think the Alfa may be a bit to much for my old trusted garage to handle

My Brera is due a 54K service and I am contemplating Euro Car Care in Derby. Anyone got an opinion? good or bad? I usually do all my own work, but I thought I would maintain the 100% service history on my car, and I need them to look at a funny noise down the right side of the V6.:confused:

I'll kick things off then :) this one gets about a bit :thumbs: Nice to see you Gaz ;)

Just bought this. MOT nearly up and taxed till October. I recently sold my MX5 S-Ltd to buy a static caravan cause it was more practical for a family of 5!!!!!!. However i am now in a position to own a fun car and quite frankly i am not a crowd follower so a spider was really the only option...

Anyone used this garage before? Apparently alfa and fiat specialist.. Kev

Dropped in unannounced first thing Monday morning with suspected driveshaft issues (wobble/shake under load), discussed with technician.....Picked up car this morning with new driveshaft (under warranty) and car all shiney and clean! First class service and communications from Beechdale, just...

Bought the car (159 2.4) couple of months ago when it had an oil and filter change but no reset so Oil Change Required warning has come up now at 29000 miles. I've seen someone recommend Alfatechnico for servicing and their site does look interesting. Anyone any other ideas for both simple Oil...

Hi AOers, During the bad snow a few weeks back, my Father-in-Law's 946 Spider decided to slide off the drive by itself and partially demolished a dry stone wall! :cry: There is some damage to the rear bumper and we're not really sure where to take it that will do a good job and not rip us off...
