Morning all, As the title suggests, I've a strange PAS fluid leak on my 2.4 159. Yesterday morning noticed a bit of groaning and particularly heavy steering when leaving the dentist's. As I was heading home anyway, I thought to check the level of the PAS fluid, and to my surprise, was below the...

What do you think has caused these scratches? 1. Just an accident like something has got wedged between the two surfaces.. 2. An attempted break in of the boot.. So recently I have been polishing this car and in and out the boot quite regularly so you kind of get to know every inch of the car...

I'm getting a strange smell entering the cabin via the vents whenever I come to a standstill. I can't find anything stuck on the exhaust or anything obvious. The smell does remind me of electrical burning and it is strongest on the alternator side of the engine. It does smell faintly like an...

Hello. It seems like I have a problem, there's this weird sound coming from somewhere front left of the car (GTV V6 TB), I'd describe it as a loose belt kind of noise, like it's clanking. It's not ever present, just seems to appear when giving the gas pedal a squeeze, mind you, the car can be...

Given the recent good weather, I ave mostly been driving my Spider. Had to pick up a BBQ/fire pit today and took the GTV and noticed a bit of a strange noise... I can only describe it as a whirring/droning sound which is related to road speed and not engine speed. It sounded to me like it is...

Hi all, Since I bought the 147 JTDm in Sept 2018 I noticed a strange issue with the Cruise Control, but also with the Throttle Response (at least, it feels that way). Whenever the weather is getting a bit better and thus warmer, every now and then the Cruise Control will face some kind of lag...

Hi Guys, I bought a few months ago a mito 1.4TB 155cvs. The problem is, in the first few miles the car makes a noise as if something is touching the brake disc and stops making noise when the car warms up. I found a video on youtube with the same problem: The car is an Astra but the noise is...

Hello Everyone, I recently bought a 2014 1.4MA Sportiva Nav TCT. Loving it, looks great, drives great, but have a few strange electrical "features" that I would love to get to the bottom of and would appreciate if anyone could share their experience of similar issues. I couldn't find any posts...

This applies to all 147s, 156s and GTs equally. Now the cars are older, it is quite common to experience multiple electrical faults which are due to the deterioration of electrical connections. Any car with strange faults should firstly have this attended to before looking any further. This is...

I just wanted to start this discussion, but first I would tell everybody that I'm Italian (as you can see) and I love Italy. Even if this Country has lots of bad/weird/unexpected curiosity. We have a huge history in cars. But... Italians prefer foreign cars. Expecially German ones, but they...

Hi all, I am quite new to the forums, but I'm hoping to get some advice from other Giulietta owners. I bought my G TCT QV Line 170 MA in September last year and my partner and I absolutely love the car, but it has recently developed some niggling issues, and one of them making the car annoying...

While having a casual browse for a 2.6, I spotted this. An MOT check on it shows... well, something interesting. Could be a legitimate mistake, but would this discrepancy not be flagged at MOT time that the car appears to have gone back in time...
