So I've got an issue with my 147 from cold. It hunts at idle when cold, throws a motor control failure below 2.5k RPM but cures itself above that. Runs like a spanner below 2.5k (no power and surging like ****) but above that it pulls as it should. When it's hot it'll drive perfect, have had...

Hi I have a G 1.4 Multiair 170, purchased new March 2014 with 5000 on the clock. Fuelling compared to other cars i've had is less than perfect, with some flatspots on pick up. The engine revs rise when the clutch is engaged. Is this common with these cars, or is it a fault on mine? Would...

I tried starting the car on wednesday following a 5 minute stop after a previous 20 minute car journey (So engine was warm) and I just got the Engine Management light, turning over but no ignition. Usually its related to the yellow key light which I never get round to fixing (antenna) but this...

Here's one for the track guys out there. When you are running low amounts of fuel and you turn left and the fuel sloshes over to the right, the fuel pump sucks air and you lose power. With out changing the tank, to a race one or putting more fuel in, how can you eliminate this? All advice...

can anyone tell me what can cause overfuelling in a 2.0 TS?

Hello everyone. I picked my Brera 3.2 SV last Friday and (so far) the only issue I have is that I can only get three quarters of a tank of fuel in - about £45 worth. No matter what I do, it just won't go in but the guage says it's only 3/4 full. Has anyone else had that problem?

Wonder if anyone can shed some light on this - there appear to be 2 possibly related problems. My car is a 2000 model 3.0 Sportronic with 120000km. 1. On a light throttle (ie not under load) cruising at about 3500rpm in top gear (D in auto mode) there is a distinct stutter or hiccup - sometimes...

Got a question for those "in the know" If you have a weak spark, would you need a stronger fuel mixture to help the engine run properly ??? I'm awaiting my new leads and coils (those on the car are split etc etc), but I've noticed that when the engine is above 75ºC, the car surges on part...
