RIP George (Pendragonfalls): https://www.alfaowner.com/Forum/republic-of-ireland/1167697-very-sad-news-george-pendragonfalls.html George did own a silver pre-facelift 166TS and would have frequented this forum a few years back He will be sadly missed :vs_sad:

Well, after over 4 years with the159 I found a b&m feature I never knew I had!! Changing between media stick, cd and radio always was a bit hit and miss, often having to resort to the steering wheel controls to get to the media menu and choose random or try to get the middle of the right...

...but not THAT low. 67.45 litres went into the old girl, wonder how close I was to running out. All the best Pub

Remember Queen's track "I'm In Love With My Car"..? The engine revving at the end, is Roger Taylors Alfa :eek: I'm in Love with My Car - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Just bought a 156 handbook that covers the Selespeed, and it says in the Selespeed section that the car should not be left in neutral when parked.......

I locked my keys in the boot. And wouldve guessed the windows are sledge hammer proof! Brilliant. So the RAC arrive, 'sorry pal, cant help you the cars deadlocked cant open the door even if we broke the window' Not really knowing enough i accepted that and he drove off (laughing probably), i...

Flicking through old reciepts last night of the gtv's and contacted a guy who used to own my silver one in 2004, chuffed to know it's still being looked after well :thumbs: For the grey one I'm breaking due to headgasket going on the guy I brought it from I found the receipt he got given...

Well, I've had the catless manifolds on the GTA for a while now and one thing I hadn't counted on was how much of an affect on fuel consumption all those lovely extra torques has. Ever since I've owned the car I've barely been able to average more than 16mpg, a lot of this is down to living in...

Bit bored today so thought i would try the fabled ECU reset. Net result is a ICS that wont switch on and a gearbox that beeps to tell me I am in reverse when infact I am in drive! It was all fine before!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Im guessing I should do the ECU reset again to try and stop the...

Well it was going to happen wasn't it, after over a month of happy alfa owning my first major job is at hand. The oil leak I have found the cause - one of the camshaft oil seals behind the cambelt pulleys is leaking, we found this after taking the cambelt covers off in search of the leak. The...

She was running beaute this morning. Parked up. Did a few bits and pieces, decided to nip to town, nothing. She was turning over but not firing. I had to admit defeat and call the RAC. After 10 minutes of doing stuff the guy said it was definately fuel related and asked if I'd done anything. Not...

Dear Lord, you may have heard me use your name in vain and utter profanities by the bucketload. Please forgive me as I was trying to do something that should have been the most simple of tasks but I've ended up spending the last 4 hours grazing my knucles, burning my hands and stabbing my...

Re: Man Utd vs Chelsea.... You knew this was coming!! :cheese:

Ive just been looking at Alfa GT's on autotrader and saw a nice V6. Never having been sure of the VED rating of a V6, I looked it up on Parkers. And it seems that any cars up to mid 2006 are only Band F, so only have to pay £205 road tax. After this they are Band G/£300. So what changed???

LOL ;) I've been "promoted" so to speak, so i'm treating myself and my lovely alfa to a little modding. As some of you are aware, i've replaced my alfa wheels with 18" ones, which I am extremely happy with, and am now looking to make everything "sit" a lot nicer on them. I want the shocks...
