I dropped off the heads of my V6 for skimming today, following a head gasket failure on the rear bank. I'm hoping to get them back and to start the rebuild this weekend, which means I will need torque settings for various nuts and bolts. I can't see these in the technical manual - "repair...
Howdy. I'm putting in a new lightweight fan and alloy rad and the fan kit control module needs a power source which goes on with the ignition and one that goes on when the air con starts (air con clutch)
Any ideas on the best place to tap into these?
Hi all,
147 GTA. At some point I've lost one of the caps that covers the screw which holds the plastic cover on over the wiper motor. No idea what the part is specifically called and a google search has not proved fruitful. The remaining one has a small clips on the underside so not sure how...
As the title says really ...where is the cheapest place to get a left upper wishbone for a late (so the different taper) 159? Lots on ebay seem to be selling one type for all years....we all know that wont work. Want a branded one...rather than a no name Chinese one. Meryle, Borg and Beck or TRW...
Hi there, Anybody got a source for the clips which attach the injection rubber hoses from the plenum chamber to the inlet manifold please?
The car is a '89 S3 Spider with Jetronic injection.

Thanks for all the help.
Picked up our new P4 and it has everything but the Viscous Coupler - thought that might be the case. Runs fine in 2wd mode for the moment.
But longer term, we will want to get the 4wd working again. So, the search begins now ... anyone know where I can get a replacement? Has anyone found an...

Does anyone know the best place to get a centre section for my exhaust - DPF to back boxes?
It's a 2.4 (210) Brera......Any pointers would be great - Cheers!
Greetings-As much as I love this car, I just can't stomach shelling out $385.00 (plus shipping) for the replacement rear muffler. Has anyone found a suitable replacement that could be made to work without too much effort? In this day and age, I would think that there must be an online source...
So I bought a blue mini iso block aux in cable.

It connects fine but I can't switch source to CD Changer. I get "no source available" on the radio screen. Is this normal? Do I need to change a setting...
Hi All,

I've found that the part number is 50505251 and as far as I know come as a pair - problem I have is sourcing them?
So if anyone can ointment me in the right...
My 3.0 V6 has been missing.
The rubber air intake sleeves between the nice shiny stainless steel pipes and the plenum had been replaced with silicone ones by a previous owner. I notice that 3 of the 6 had "slipped" away from the inlet pipe on the plenum allowing air to get in.
It seems that the...
Hi guys,
maybe a stupid question but I would need your help in finding Alfa 159's aux source input from the original Alfa Romeo CD/radio (159 2.2 JTS 2006 with Bose subwoofer). I have already done and connected my DIY aux cable for iPhone but now I don't know how to select AUX option from the...
Hi, My Mito built in TomTom power source has suddenly failed. I have tried the mounting bracket & TomTom in another car and it gets power so I suspect some form of disconnection of the dashboard top socket has happened. Any clues regarding access/disassembly of the socket from the dashboard top...
Can anyone tell me why the audio system doesn't always select the digital USB source in the glove box?
There doesn't seem to be any logic to when it comes on.
Also the USB source can be dropped (not paused), with no obvious way to re-select it through the menu.
Can anyone shed any light on this...
Hi there! New to the forum, but completely incompetent (to an extent) when it comes to mechanical know-how!
I was driving my 2010 Mito on the motorway, after 5 minutes, my temp shot right up to 130. Pulled over, checked the coolant level - Completely empty. Managed to get to a garage to buy...
