So my GT has a few more faults manifesting. At the MOT in Jan 18 it had an advisory on all 4 discs. I was going to get those done when the weather improves in the spring. However the clutch has started slipping so it looks like big expenditure on the way. I Have looked at changing it but there...

Took my front pads out the other day for a full caliper/pad clean. Been having lots of squeaking coming from front brakes, both sides. Properly cleaned the caliper and pads using brake cleaner, wiping everything down both the calipers, pads, and discs. Old copper grease covered in brake dust...

My lovely little Spider JTS 2.2 has always had this little habit of telling me to belt up even when the seat belt is done up. Now it's an annoying pain in the rear. I'm sure somewhere on the forum there is an answer but can someone tell me how to disconnect the alarm. I can put up with being...

Hello, I have the injector light on my Alfa Spider TS. It comes on a couple of seconds after the car has started. What should I do to fix the problem it is referring to or to diagnose the fault? I have cleaned the MAF and air sensor but no luck. I imagine it needs more work than that but it...

I want rid if the resonator in my air intake. I'm thinking of going for a couple of 76mm alloy pipes, one 90 and one 45 degree, a couple of silicon joiners and a saw. Anyone done it before to a GTA? I've just been reading a how to using silicone pipework and alloy joiners, but I think the...

Sad this was my dream car and paid good money for it 2 years ago (R140 000-00). Family now dictates we need a car with 4 doors and I can't afford to keep the GT. But it seems impossible to get rid of the Alfa. I advertised for 6 months going as low as R110 000 with no takers, then went to find...

When I was costing up a new Mito, I wanted the 'stealthy' all black look.. I got a fantastic deal from Bauer Millets, and so went with the all chrome "Distinctive" option. After parking near black Nissan Micras and being horrified at the likeness, I had to remedy things.. I costed up dark...

Well not because it was a bad car, far from it. I bought one of the first off the line in October 2010 from Budgen Alfa of Shrewsbury. a 170MA in Lusso Trim and Anthracite Grey. Plus Points: The engine - the reason I bought it - what a revelation after suffering numerous DPF regenerations...

Hello My name is Yousef and I have a bit of a dilemma .. My uncle was a great fan of Alfa Romeo and he owned a '98 GTV 3.0 .. Unfortunately this GTV fell victim to bad mechanics and ended up being parked in AbuDhabi for the past 2 years.. Moreover my uncle passed away a few months back and I...

Hey everyone, Sadly the dead V6 lemon that I bought needs to go... to repair it to my satisfaction requires engine out and a lot more extensive work than I can manage on a rented driveway (landlord has had a go at me :lol:) Should not have bought it but you live and learn 1998 phase 1 V6...

Hi Alfa buds, Just sold my GT V6 and brought an 08 Alfa 159 jtdm. Cracking car and loving the economy over my old thirsty V6!! The car has previously been owned by a chain smoking over stressed salesrep I guess and the aircon stinks of ciggy smoke. The interior of the car has been extensively...

Not really, but what if you had to? If you had absolutely no choice, and had to trade in the Alfa what would you replace it with? You have to pick a comparable car in terms of value so no Astons etc allowed. Me, I'd have a Vectra SRI V6, in fact I nearly bought one once.

I'd like to get my spare wheel in the back for longer journeys, so I've been thinking about what I need to move to fit it on top of the LPG tank... What do these bits do and can I safely relocate them? I'm guessing the middle things are some kind of fuel device and need to stay above the fuel...
