Just happened today. Revving engine past 6000 revs, the battery light flickers on, then goes off at idle. I am thinking alternator belt and hoping it is not the alternator. The battery is about 3 years old and has never messed me about. I had to replace the crank pulley on the last cam belt...

Hello friends. My 147 Selespeed 2004 is doing this thing when standing still in the traffic light. The engine revs decrease to 500 and increase to 1000 on a regular basis. what could be causing this problem?

I am looking to buy a certian Giulietta 1.4tb 120hp 2014. I posted a query previously here on the forum about the rubbing noise in the engine. Now after giving it few more test drives I noticed other things and I'd like to ask other 1.4 TB owners to confirm if these things are normal and happen...

Hi guys, I'm Zulian, from Paris ! Happy to join your community to talk about our cars ! I own a beautiful red Giulia, sport edition with black black, propulsed by the 200HP 2.0L 2019, since 5 months ! :) (picture attached) see you on the threads !

Since refitting the carbs after the new steering box I’ve had a problem with the revs rising when warm. I didn’t do anything to them, they were carefully removed, stored and refitted. At idle they are fine but when hot the revs really rise on there own. Drop the clutch and drive and they fall...

As per previous discussion, ive been raising the revs on the jts to about 1500 when stationary for longer periods of time...like traffic lights just turning red etc. This is because its possible the lean burn at idle of the jts may be contributing to additional carbon build up in the inlet...

I've posted before on this but was totally in the dark over the origin of the noise, as was everyone else. I tried plenty of things, to no avail, but I think I might now have the answer and as such, wondered if anyone else had encountered this problem. On my phase 1 GTV I have located a shrill...

I've been experiencing an intermittent misfire of sorts for the past few months now, but as the car has only just come back from its winter break I want to get it sorted. It only ever happens at high revs, just as I'm about to change gear at full chat between 1st-2nd or 2nd-3rd. It feels like...

Afternoon all, so as the title suggests, my brera hunts for rpm. But only on a cold start for about 1-2 seconds, if the engine is started while still warm it does not hunt at all. anyone able to shed any light on if this is the start of a problem or just another one of those alfa things...

I have a loud squealing noise that starts at 4500 rpm, but only when the temperature is set to cold on the heater. It sounds like a leaking vacuum hose and initially, I thought it was coming from the passenger air vent, but after dropping the glove box, I discovered that it was coming from the...

Just had fuel pump regulator replaced as car felt like it was not getting fuel and code showed up regulator issue but car is still losing power at 2000 sometimes higher at 3000 it isnt as bad as engine management light doesn't come on now nor does it go into limp mode but under acceleration...

I bought the car 3 weeks ago. I have the check engine light on my dash. We pulled the codes and one of them was this. No strange noise to me, no power loss. I took the valve cover off to check the chain. I could push the chain down about 6mm, but it looks fine to me, i saw much worse. I tried to...

Hi all! I've noticed a bit of a weird problem with my 2015 Giulietta Sprint (16.5k miles) - a couple of times now, upon starting the engine, the revs just won't remain stable and they will drop down after the car has started until it stalls. The first time this happened at the end of the day...

I was wondering if anyone else has suffered from this or knows what it might be? When I drive my 2.4 (210) hard it revs upto about 3500 revs and then flat spots. My swirl flaps are leaking a bit but this seems more than that? I have a hybrid turbo. Any ideas?? Thanks

Howdy, This is my first experience with a JTS engine, after only having TS's and Busso's previously, and was curious about its low-down performance, specifically at pull off. I just cannot get the feel for a smooth pull off in first gear. I read someone else expertly describe it ''as if the...

Hi Guys, In the last month or so, my 159 JTDm (2010) has started juddering when idle - if I bring it 1400rpm. Also judders when slowly accelerating through the lower gears - I'm guessing as it generally passes through 1400revs. From doing some research, I've found that it could be the flywheel...

First a little bit of history. It's a 81 kw 8v JTD 147, 2002. - 2 years ago, IC hose snapped - replaced with metal pipe For the past 8 months, car was throwing MCSF errors (sometimes they'd just appear and go, and sometimes they'd stick for a day or two) - Vacuum hoses melted three times...

Hi all, Looking for some advice on my Alfa gt I recently got. When on idle the revs have a very small pulsating sensation it all so kicks in as when booting it at above the 2k revs and you can really feel it. It's seems to get better and some times go when the engine is warmed up (although seems...

Bongiorno alfisti! Here is my list of troubles and I beg for an advice (e-m-m-m...advices :ponder: ), gentlemen. Alfa GT 2.0 JTS Selespeed. 1. Battery/Alternator. Circumstances: - 3 months ago in a service I was told that battery has <40% of its capacity left - since that I had a 80k...

Hi guys, My 2.4jtdm 20V has lost quite a bit of power in low revs (1500-3000rpm). I have a rebuild turbo, egr cleaned, intake manifold cleaned, MAP cleaned, new oem MAF, turbo hoses are good. It is a pretty high mileage car (200.000miles) but the engine runs smoothly as ever, and it revs up...
