A little while ago, I was asked in a forum post about making a 90mm wide 110 year anniversary decal, to fit the size better of that which comes on the GTA. (My standard size being 120mm) At the time I was reluctant due to difficulty in producing the date so small. However, with a slightly new...

Hi Guy's I've just picked up a 2008 Brera in Gabiano Black, this is my first black car, wanted a change as I've always had silver cars in the past. The dealer did a fairly descent job of cleaning and preparing the car before I picked it up but I think it needs a bit more work to get it looking...

Is the 8C metallic red ever going to be available to order on the 159. Don't understand the point in having all the comercials done in this gorgeous color, if it's not going to be able to order one....? What is the logic in this? "We show you this amazing color", but it you want to buy one...

I have recently got the motor back for the great guys at Autolusso. Amongst other things I had some Performance Friction Carbon Metallic Brake Pads put on. Now I was always quite impressed with the standard brake performance but these pads have made a noticeable difference. The one thing that...

Hi, I have 2 noises... 1st one is at speeds of about (120km/h/75mph). It's like one metallic part is ''vibrating'' over a moving metallic part...It is very noticeable, only at the front left (wheel)... The noise mostly occurse when engine is warm. I just replaced the drive-shafts, but didn't...

As per title....I'm getting a 'empty tin can', loose metal on metal, rattling sound from nearside front wheel / suspension / possibly front passenger area. Can only hear it with the passenger side window down). Been to an indie to try and diagnose but he can't seem to resolve it and I've the...

The pictures I have seen of the mito in red seem to be metallic is this the case. I am going to order a Veloce 1.6 diesel next month and I am torn between Red and Etna Black. Any advice would be appreciated.

When I first start my 147GTA from cold I hear a metallic rattle for about a minute. Doesn't happen when the car is already warm. It's hard to work out where it's coming from exactly, but think it's underneath the car about halfway down, rather than the engine. I'm guessing it's one of the...

Hello all, I drove my 146 into work this morning for the first time in a few days due to all the lovely snow :cool: we've been having, little bit reluctant to start but otherwise no worries. However as I came to move it to come home, a metallic 'grinding/scraping' noise began. I thought I'd...

Hi Alfistis Looking at a slightly used 147 with black metallic paint and beige leather seats. Dealer has offered to DiamondBrite it for free. Question on the beige interior - how easy is it to keep clean? Silly question really I suppose, perhaps as it's a lighter colour it will prompt me to...

When I bought my Gtv it was described as Meteor Grey. A few other owners concurred it was Meteor Grey. From somewhere (I can't remember where) I started to get the idea it might be Gunmetal, but thanks to some advice on here recently I have now discovered it is neither. It is Eclipse Grey...

Hi all, I've noticed that there's a horrible metallic rattling coming from the front of the car. I doesn't appear to change with speed and it's not coming from the engine. It only seems to do it when moving along. The clutch pedal did something a bit odd this morning. It still works OK but has...

My GT JTD (2004) has almost every rattle described in this forumsection but there's one in particular that makes me a bit worried: on bumpy surfaces I hear a metallic sound from the left (drivers' )side of my car when the window is down (can hardly hear it with my window closed), it rattles a...

.... and how to separate them without any swirl marks. The car is actually clean, just covered in dust but I imagine a normal duster may leave swirl marks. Any suggestions? Oliver

Re: Metallic rubbing noise when turning left Regarding my 2002 GTV 2.0 TS. When cornering left there is a metallic rubbing/grinding noise coming from the front of the car. My thoughts are possible drive shaft or wheel bearing. Can anyone confirm or dismiss my ideas?

Hi, I'm hoping there's someone who's done a bit of metallic spraying. I've got the metallic paint layers down. I put one thick coat on, flatted it & then applied 2 thin coats. It is rough but very even in colour and texture (a lot better than I hoped). Would it be best to flat it before...
