Hi All, I wondered if anyone can help with the recent issue I have with my 2010 Giulietta. When I turn off my ignition my number plate lights comes on after about 20 seconds and they stay on, after hours of being on they start to blink on and off, this happens whether the alarm is set or not...

How do I upload an audio of it? Have a .wav of engine noise...but .wav not allowed Engine is so rattly it's beyond belief....coming from the main engine block...no loss of power...no engine management lights...just very embarrassing. Read up on hydraulic lifters and stuck in Wynns additive...

Hey, I just bought an Alfa 147 jtd 16v. I noticed that during ignition, the whole row of lights (ASR, ABS and hand brake) don't light up. I think someone has switched the whole row off in order to hide an error with the ABS. How can i turn the lights back on and diagnose the problem?

Just fitted the Novitec box this evening and went for a spin. Very pleased with the results so far. It's a beast. Wheels spinning g in 3rd! Thing is, the foolish boy in me wants to turn the settings up past the recommended 6 and see what happens. Has anyone done this and if so did you get any...

Hello guys/girls, I'm reading some topics and posts in this forum, that some of you had this troubles but no one says what fixed it :) When engine is cold, power steering is a little noisy when turning steering wheel, and this noise diaperes when engine is around 50 °C. I checked oil from...

Hey everyone. my love of cars in particular Italian cars has come from my dad who is madly into his fiats. which has given me plenty of time under the bonnet of cars. I have owned my 1999 alfa GTV (my second car) for a few years now and have loved it. even with the constant banter from friends...

Hi to all, New member in the UK, suddenly, inexplicably understand the attraction of Italian cars (not bikes, yet). Anyone know of 75 3.0 V6 for sale in the UK?

One of the exhaust back-box hangers has split in half causing the box to sit a little off centre, causes it to hit the bodywork when going over bumps. Phew! Must tie that up, don't want the thing falling off on my drive home in the morning. All the best Pub

Just bought a Alfa Romeo 147 2.0 semi-auto selespeed t-spark. The last owner was a car collector who bought the car mainly for the cherished plate. The car has been garaged for the last 2yrs and is in pristine condition. Prior to that it had its cam belt replaced and has done only 1800miles...

Hello all, My 156 went to get a cat bypass system made up. When doing some welding they disconnected the battery and the alarm went off. Now at this point I never knew the car had an alarm fitted as the indicators do not flash when the car is opened or locked and the alarm does not beep or...

Apologies for the poor form in asking a query as one of my first posts. Done a search and can find about the warnings for ice and when selecting reverse, but my 147 beeps twice from a buzzer around the glove box area, every time the engine is turned off. No lights on warning, purely two beeps...

Hi guys, any idea? One day music stopped playing, after a while i found out that on ICS function from DSP is turned to SDV. I saw a post here on forum to disconnect a battery - done this for a day and a half and still my ICS thinks he is SDV. Is my amp dead? I get some electricity on signal...

Hi everyone, I've just bought myself a nice 147 1.6 T-Spark (120Bhp version), but after a couple of weeks the stereo suddenly displayed "CANCONNECT" and then turned itself off, and refuses to turn on now. I'm guessing that there's a loose connection at the back of the unit and it's now...

Hi guys, I've recently installed a xenon kit with Morimoto Mini H1 Projectors and now something is bugging me, because the xenon bulbs are 5k obviously the color of the light for the dipped beam is different than the one for the concealed source side light (halogen). My question is: is it...

Hi Guys, I have just bought a lovey GT JTD Multi-Jet 2007 in the year, might i say....BEST car i have owned yet. Second best car was my 156 2.0TS. ;) There is a couple of things i want to ask about, first is when i switch off my engine after about 5 good seconds it will make like...

Sky box :D I'm usually crap at IT stuff but with £14 of leads my WIFI BT router, WIFI mouse and the password from my sons Sky account I've managed to turn my old laptop into a Sky box :D Great picture, good sound and no stuttery buffering :cool: Jan's watching the Borgias and I'm posting on...

A bit. :) Did it this morning in my JTS. Never noticed it before, and it was only slight. My first thought would be excessive carbon build-up in combustion chamber? Engine runs and idles very smoothly, though. Otherwise, ignition switch itself? Maybe a relay somewhere I could squirt ACF-50...

Not me, but the 159 :) . Just passed 50,000 miles yesterday. I've been flirting with the idea of selling and getting something different, but that's very difficult on days when she looks this good :)
