    Hello Everyone. I have today tried to change my front break pads. I have failed miserably. The two slider pins heads that need removing are completely rusted in seized. I have hammered punched imprecated but all to no avail. :( This is my first attempt at fixing something on my alfa 147 1.9...

    Does anyone know what Torx is used on the front brakes on a ‘2017 Milano - 2.2TD 210’? Cheers

    Hello All, Covered 9,000 miles in my Giulia QV and today the yellow check front brake pads warning light appeared. I inspected the front pads and visually speaking they appear to be fairly worn. Clearly the logical thing to do is change them as soon as possible. However, with good Friday...

    Hi, I'm planning to change the rear discs and pads in the next day or two. I've read what I can find about it and I've done the same job on other cars. I have the pads, discs and a wind back tool. I need to pick up a set of Torx sockets as from what I've read, it's those torx e (star shaped...

    I'm wondering if anyone knows if a 2009 155 TB MiTo would have brake pad sensors in the the front/back, as I stupidly forgot to check before I left it parked 50min away. I'm 99% sure that there are not sensors in the back, but seem to remember a cut wire in the front. It's just that I can't...
  7. Alfa 147, 156 & GT
    Hi All, So i recently started getting a a large scraping sound coming from the passenger side wheel area. Upon further investigation i found that the disk was rubbing against the pads. So i replace the disks and the pads thinking that i have buckled rotor. However, i still having an issue with...
  8. Alfa Stelvio
    Hi all I'm new here and need some advice. My Stelvio was at the Dealership a couple of weeks ago to have the brakes looked at. One rear brake pad totally worn out - its only 9 months old and 9,000 miles. Other three rear brake pads worn but plenty life left in them. Alfa and dealership...

    My Guilia has done 30k miles (mostly motorway) and Alfa have just advised my front brake pads are 80% worn. Is this usual?
  10. Alfa Giulietta
    Hi is this easy to do for a normal mechanical minded person? I'm not a car mechanic! I have the pads and a few guides. Is it worth doing or just take it to a garage??
  11. Alfa 159, Brera & Spider
    All, I’m having some real trouble removing the two brake pad retaining pins from the front callipers. They are corroded solid. I guess the back will be just as bed when I tackle them. Any suggestions on how to remove them? Regards Simon
  12. Alfa 159, Brera & Spider
    Hi, I am changing the front discs and pads on my 2.0 JTDm, although I am struggling to remove this rigid brake pipe clip on the strut (nervous about damaging the pipe!) which will allow me to move the caliper out of the way. I have cleaned around the area but still unsure. Hoping someone on the...
  13. Alfa Giulietta
    Hey all, Been a long time since I last posted here but looking for a spot of advice. Had my Giulietta 2.0 JTDM-2 (170 hp version) MOTd recently and also got the timing belt changed, which as anyone who has one will know is a bit sore in the pocket! I had an advisory about changing the brake...
  14. Alfa Giulia
    Hi all, took my girl into get a nuisance check engine light looked at and during the vehicle health check they noted that the rear pads are 50% worn. Call me stupid, but at less than one year old and only 10,400 miles on the clock, I don't think I should be seeing this! I would also expect the...
  15. Alfa GTA
    Can anybody tell me what the pads on the right are off please. The left one is a standard 330 GTA pad, but the other was removed from a car i was working on, its exactly the same but is about 9mm narrower as can be seen, it has been used to clear the mounting bracket for the caliper. The...
  16. Alfa Giulietta
    Please forgive my badly English. I’m going to change the brake dics and pad as it got worn on my 1.4MA G with the Brembo calipers. I’m quite sure to get the C hook MTEC dics but still thinking of the pads. I’m considering EBC yellow stuffs / the MX72 plus for daily drive and sometimes be...

    Hi, my heated seat pad broke, it burned a small hole in the fabric. Looking for a replacement but i cant find it anywhere except this old ebay ad Genuine Alfa Romeo Giulietta Heated Seat Mat Pad 50517644 And some weird-looking sites that wants 50€ for it. Does anyone know where i can get a...

    Hi Guys Does the Giulia infotainment system utilise a touchpad for entering destinations in the sat-nav etc? I've not seen this mentioned in any recent reviews, but it's mentioned in the below Infotainment guide video (See 1m 20s) so is this limited to certain markets or was the feature never...
  19. Alfa Giulietta
    Does the UK spec Giulietta have the warning light for worn brake pads? 2013 2.0 JTDM2 140 bhp (hand book just helpfully says "for versions/markets where provided") It's on 52000 miles - original brake pads and discs - no evidence of brake wear yet (i.e. no undesirable sounds), but haven't...
