ph1

I've read the puddle and under dash lights are the same for the PH1, and that some Maserati lights are identical to the ones in the GTV. Did any other cars use these, I'm missing a whole unit for the passenger side under dash? I'm having trouble sourcing any, so I was wondering if maybe Fiat...

After storing my spider for the last 3 years I now have to move the alfa to a new location. The problem I find myself in is that I have to move it by this weekend as the property has been sold. I find that it will not start and have traced it to no 12v power to the fuel pump (pump replaced...

Dear Alfa hive mind.... So the MOT station has said that the single foot long crack in my windscreen isn't ever going to be a pass. Fair call. I need to replace the screen. Anyone have a used one? And any advice on removing the old and fitting a new one? thanks! vl 159

My speedo has just packed up! From what i've read it looks likely that it's the sensor connected to the gearbox. I've had a quick look on ebay but can't find anything? Would anyone have one that I could purchase? is there a good description of how to fit it? Many thanks

My alternator is fried, which I knew on purchase. Got it out easily enough, from the top. Does anyone know the difference between the various alternators fitted to these models? I expect that mechanically most alternators from a 2.0 TS would fit with possible differences in the output. Have...

I realise this issue has been covered before, I know there are a few engineering companys or Alfa specialists that manufacture these replacements new the PH1 and PH2 door check straps are fundamentally different and the PH2 ones are simply not suitable for the PH1 doors, I have tried matching...

Hi all. My downpipe is rotten to the point of being practically non-existent. I patched it up to get me by a few months after spending thousands this year on various works, I was just spent out, but it's given up the ghost and I suspect it's terminal this time. I'd love to splash on an...

Hi all, I'm a new GTV's and on a steep learning curve. I've noticed the ABS light does not come on (at any time), all the others come on and go off. It's a PH1 and the car feels OK under normal braking (although I appreciate this isn't when ABS would be activated). What are the checks I should...

Hi everyone. I've not had a lot of luck with my newly acquired Spider. I have a low bouncing idle and engine light is on. I've cleaned out the throttle body and the icv and taped up the air intake pipe which is pretty tired. Performance is better but the idle is still off and engine light is...

I took the door trim off hoping it might be easy to get at. I was wrong. I can hear a click in the door when I press the switch, but nothing moves. What do I do next?

Hi, I know this has been asked before and I've read several different accounts of what size tyres / spacers etc to use when fitting GT 18" Blackline wheels to a Ph1 v6 GTV. So far I'm thinking that I'm going to need: Front : 225/40/18 tyres with 12 mm spacers Rear : 225 or 235/40/18 tyres with...

Hey! I've swapped the steering wheel for one of these lovely wooden/leather combo GTV PH2 style (not sure they went to GTVs too) from AR166. The problem was that Airbag connectors were different. 2 pins, 2 black wires. What I did is I've simply cure those wire and connected them together. This...

I was planning to send it off to be reprogrammed with a couple of new fobs. I only have one and it is a bit tatty. Problem is that I cannot find the box. I can find the SC1T2 siren, and expected to find an M99T2 behind the stereo. Any ideas on where to look next?

Just had a Phase 1 2.0TS GTV Coupe P reg barn find delivered I bought on ebay. After cleaning out the cobwebs, dead mice, leaves etc from the engine bay and sticking a new battery on it - yes you guessed correctly it won't start!!!! :cry: The key code light goes out as it should and so does the...

Hi! I needed to remove the drivers seat and so upon re-connecting the Airbag cable I now have this dreaded Airbag light on in my dash. Searching through the forum it appears that resetting TRW PH1 was not that easy at all in the past. What's the current situation on this subject? Please don't...

Needs to be in good condition for a spider. Would prefer black :cheeky:

Hi all, wonder if anybody can be of asistance. Car failed on emissions and after telling him I've had a new exhaust and clutch the mechanic says it might be as simple as a fuse or they haven't wired then lambada sensor correctly, but not a clue where to look. Please help or should I go straight...

Hi all, I'm toying with the idea of swapping the black fascia panel for a Ph2 silver one. So the questions are dead easy (I know no alfa question has a simple solution btw) 1) Can it be done? - if so..... 2) Do the heater controls, aircon and hazard warning switch and fog lamp buttons and...

Good evening boys and gals. My little gtv seems to have a few problems with its electrics. First of all it my electric windows have both stopped working but I can hear the relays clicking when I press the buttons also the central locking has died at the same time it wont work at all key fob or...

I've listed it in classifieds if anyone is interested. I cannot justify 3 cars, and although it's a fabulous drive the V6 still pips it. Has loads of history including 2 cambelt changes the last one being about 3 years ago with little mileage since. Open to sensible offers.
