Yeah, so my problem is that when in lower gears, or braking, the central locking starts to click on and off. Like an relay sound coming from the back of the car. Not sure if it actually locks the doors on and off, but it sounds like it. Also the central locking does not work when used from the...

Anyone know a good source for buying cam locks in Australia. Just bought a 2004 GT 3.2 and cam belt last changed in 2012. Even though it's only done 49,000 since change it's been over 5 years so want to play safe. I plan to keep the GT for a while so happy to buy tools.

Hi all Why do we not get the option to unlock only the drivers' door on entrance and exit? Is standard on most cars now except Alfa? Any way to activate? Change country? ODB change? Very annoying... Cheers Mash

Just about to reassemble my 2.0 JTS motor having had the head skimmed. This being my first JTS, I bought a set of JTS cam locks along with the head gasket set and various other bits and pieces from Alfa Workshop. However - there are no instructions with the locks as to which cam lobes they fit...

when i installed the reprogrammed ECU into my 3.0 fl, I reasoned that since the ecu no longer needs a CODA function, I could take the code box out of the circuit. Having done this I now have bouncing locks. Is it a coincidence ? and i need to strip and clean the locks? or should I re plug the...

I was talking to a master locksmith (he was sorting out the dodgy remote on my Land Rover) and I asked him about the worn-out locks on my Alfetta: the ignition lock took a lot of 'jiggling' to make the key turn and the door and boot locks were heading the same way. Perhaps not surprising on a 40...

Hi folks, As my Spider is parked outside every night my locks will start freezing up any day now, and it's my daily driver so need it to get to work in the mornings. Every year I have issues with the locks freezing and don't want something to break by forcing it. What do the rest of you do to...

So I'm having a set of 3.2 cams installed in my 3.0 GTV. These cams came from a 3.2, and the exhaust side will get the 3.2 inlet profile as well. Which cam locks should be used to time them?

I am after some advice with my bouncing locks issue. I had the locks lock then reopen, as have many I'm sure. I now have everything looking correct. The car appears to lock but the drivers side can still be opened activating the alarm. If I then relock it the locks "bounce" I then have to open...

Hi all does anyone know the name and a source for the panel retainers on the cover of the fuse box cover underneath the steering wheel please? I need 3 to replace the wood screws the previous owners have 'installed'! TIA - Ken

Funny thing happened on the GTV the other day, when i locked the car with the remote i heard it lock then cycle to unlock again.Now I’ve had this before when the Bowden cable played up so i just locked the car with the key and thought nothing of it. By chance i had to go out at night and noticed...

Hi guys, hoping for a bit of advice here. I've got a GTV 3.0 with 3.2 camshafts. The car needs the belts changed so I've got it booked in to my mechanic but he's not an Alfa specialist so I need the locking tools. Plan A had been to buy them from TotallyAlfa but it looks like they have...

I am in need of a set of cam locks for the GTA - anyone got any lying around that they want to sell or loan me? If so let me know how much on PM. I've asked ebspares however they only loan them with the purchase of a full cambelt kit which I don't need.

Interesting 166 challenge this morning. The alarm was going off - I assumed because it was a windy night. Went out, unlocked the car and checked the dash LED to see what had triggered the alarm. The LED flash sequence was one flash; then a gap; then seven flashes; then a gap; and so on...

I think I need to re-grease my locks/door catches as one of them is sounding a bit rough at times when locking, whats the best product and methods to use to do this? I have some silicon spray and WD40 to hand...

A friend of mine is considering buying a 156 GTA Selespeed. The Selespeed on the car has a curious problem: If the engine becomes hot, the gear box locks up in the current gear selected. Fix so far: pull to the side of the road, let the car cool down, and then it´s good to go again... Is this a...
