I have a 1.6 TS CF3 156. It has been working nicely after the main cat got destroyed 60k kms ago (the cat became see-through). I am now looking to remove the entire cat system and I am wondering about the lamda functionality, will the ecu adapt without giving the notorious engine light? I have...

hello every one, I am feeling that alfa 156 is a stupid car full of problems and issues, i regret the day i thought of owning it, I am living in a hot climate country, i turn the AC day and night, the AC is cold but the air flow is super weak, i changed the air filters but nothing changed...

I have a 210 brera diesel that smokes quite badly when under hard acceleration/ full throttle. . I took the car to a garage so they could remove the tray and look for leaks in the boost pipes as suggested on this forum. When I picked the car up they had not bothered to do this as they plugged...

So now the mot is done it's on to a few things I'd like to attend to. I need to sort the passenger side drive shaft. I can get a full new shaft for £80 or a new inner joint spider for much less. Unsure which to go for. Can anyone offer any advice on what is best and what the chances are of the...

Hi all, I was quoted €1200 by Grandon's in Cork for a timing belt change and full service on the Giulietta. To be honest, I nearly died of shock when I heard that figure. Sounds extremely high to me. It's the 1.6 multijet engine so it's not like I'm bringing in a super rare beast, the same...

When cold if I put the steering on full lock while stationary I get a knock from the steering. It will knock several time with a pronounced movement of the steering wheel. Initially thought it was a CV joint but it occures while stationary. More pronounced to the left but can also be felt to the...

On requesting the full specs for my Brera 2.2 Prodrive S, I received the following info in an email this afternoon. Unfortunately, I'm struggling to make sense of some of the details, and wondered if anyone here would know more. Thank you for contacting Alfa Romeo In reference to your enquiry...

At last service the dealer noticed an error code on one headlamp unit - turns out the flap that opens for full beam (not a seperate bulb, just a flap that lets more light out) has failed. I hadn't noticed, as the lights are so damn bright anyway - best headlights I've had on any car. New...

Hi, Just pulled the rear suspension apart after my last failed attempt to get it working correctly after a complete rebuild (ride height..bouncing etc) and have a few observations one of which is the brand new bump stop cups /Top hats that were full of water and starting to rust on the welds...

Hey guys... I'm in need of your wise knowledge. As the title says, my 159 has developed a hiccup/judder at full boost (gauge speaking) pretty obvious at around 2.9k-3k rpm. On hard accelerations at 2nd and 3rd gears it presents these symptoms, if I step the throttle down progressively, it only...

First a little bit of history. It's a 81 kw 8v JTD 147, 2002. - 2 years ago, IC hose snapped - replaced with metal pipe For the past 8 months, car was throwing MCSF errors (sometimes they'd just appear and go, and sometimes they'd stick for a day or two) - Vacuum hoses melted three times...

Hi guys Today on the Motorway, my Brera (2.4 jtdm 210hp) died at full throttle. I was overtaking a car, full throttle for 2 or 3 seconds and the engine stalls, it really stops to 0 rpm if I put in neutral. and I saw no error coming on the dashboard. Turn the car off and on again and it's...

Hey guys, Had my Giulia QV for a few days, absolutely love it! One thing that is slightly annoying is the juddering the car does when on full lock. I.e. when I'm trying to reverse into a parking space or going round a tight roundabout. Anybody else have this? It's like a juddering, or like the...
