Replacing Alfa 159 1.9 JTDM "Oil Cooler Heat Exchanger" with normal Oil Radiator. Hello again, I'm here with another problem that needs to be solved in my case. On April/2019 I had a problem, engine oil mixed with engine coolant, because of the "Oil Cooler Heat Exchanger" on my 1.9 JTDM had a...

Hi All, I recently bought a guilietta QV 2014/15 with 48000kms. I may be be being really picky/OCD but I’ve noticed overall the gearbox is really smooth through the gears and downshifting etc. however when taking off from the lights (natural mode) shifting from 1st to 2nd gear there is a tidy...

Is it me or are very low profile tyres more hassle than they are worth? Sure they look good, but due to the awful state of the roads I find myself stressed whilst driving and often going slower than I should be due to worries about buckling or cracking the wheels. Then there is the ride...

Hi. Is anyone running these tyres as a replacement for the Corsas? If so can you post up some comparisons between them and the Corsas. Regards

My friends' 2001 1.8 TS seems to have an erratic fan? It spins briefly for short bursts before reaching 90 c and then when the engine is hot in traffic the fan does not cut-in until rather late when the engine temperature is high (around the three quarter mark) but before the last marker and...

I have a 156 3.0 swap with the facelift interior and thought about the Oil temperature inside the Bordcomputer in the GTA . The Oil sensor is already fitted because I have the housing from a 3.2 engine. Is it possible to get this feature working in a normal 156 ? Because I like OEM things more...

I'm looking for the source of a clunking sound when travelling over rough/broken tarmac (which is pretty much all the tarmac in my area),so i got the car up on stands and had a look around,everything seems normal except this : There's is 3-4mm of movement between the joints,a friend suggests...

Does the Gt aerial on the roof screw off the mounting . I suspect its corroded , because the signal I get wanders somewhat even on Local Radio. Am I better off putting a Dab aerial instead of replacing the roof aerial at roughly the same cost since my new unit is Dab enabled.

I get the "steering corrector unvailable, asr unvailable" etc messages on the dash with beeping every time I connect to the abs module with either MultiEcuScan or alfaobd and would like to know if that is normal.

Hi guys, First time post!.. but not a first time owner. Picked up a 2.2 Brera earlier this year and whilst i've loved every sescond of it - my wallet hasn't - and i'm looking forward to getting her up to scratch over the enxt few months with some upgrades and detailing. However, I noticed...

Guys As I point out to my dealer that the level of brake fluid is below Minimum, I am told that this is normal and due to the brake pads wearing out. They decided not to add any fluid. Any comments/similar stories? Note: no warning light on my dashboard: just my observation directly looking...

My 2014 170 Sportiva is different to the 2011 170 Veloce I had until recently - both have the same engine and output, however I believe that when I raise the clutch from depressed, the revs increase - I could swear that didn't happen with the 2011 Veloce? Does your Giulietta behave like this?

I may have an issue with my 3.0 super and if so I'm wondering what it likely is. The temperature is usually steady at 90 when on the move but when I get stuck in traffic the temperature shoots up to about half way between the 90 and the red then the fan kicks in and it drops back down to 90 for...

I'm still getting used to the Spiders handling, which is generally great. One thing which is a bit disconcerting, though, is the way the front wheels follow ruts or other imperfections in the road. Its ok when accelerating as the power pulls the wheels through but it wanders when pootling along...

I got a alfa mito 1.3 jtdm for my first car back in November privately for my first car at 63000 miles so we took it to autolusso to have the car fully serviced and have any faults repaired. Then till I passed my test in January my Dad had been driving the car around to make sure there weren't...

I've noticed now and again when I activate the keyfob to unlock my Brera, there's this very strange buzzing type noise which seems to emanate from around the rear roof area? Is this normal & what on earth is causing it?

Hi all My MAP sensor recently failed and I replaced it with a new BOSCH 0281002845, All seems ok but maybe not. When accelerating the boost needle rises to between the third and second highest mark then drops back to about halfway before rising again The drop is of course accompanied by a...

Hi guys. Im replacing the OEM nav system with an Android one. I have all the accessories, connects adaptor...Etc. i wasnt removing the OEM nav system And This Connector...WTF? If i follow the cable Will There be the normal Alfa conectors? What can i do...

My GT JTS temperature gauge sits about 75 degrees when on the motor way and only gets close to 90 if i thrash it in lower gears. Is this right? Every other car ive had just sits below 90 constantly.
