I can't wait but ...

It's an automatic the 2.5l - it's not just as rapid as I thought it should be - it's going to my mechanic for a service as soon as I get it, what should I tell him to look for?

Thanks

From what I have heard check the coolant for any loose as it could be the heater matrix and apparently if that goes then so does your auto ECU that sits just below it.

Make sure that your mechanic is an Alfa Romeo independant specialist and budget for £1500

Does drop in power around 3.5k, likes its a little hesitant?

Picked her up today. I think I must have been trying to spoof the man who was selling her to get a better deal. She drives 100%. Even my Dad said so and he hates automatics. She's not sluggish at all I was making it up I am so so happy.

Very nice, glad you're happy with it. Not many female 166 drivers out there, I like people who think differently. :thumbs:

I was enjoying the deliciousness of a 166 when u were driving the Multipla was it?

 

[scorporion]

There was nothing wrong with the multipla for what it was - ugly as sin, but sure I didn't see that when I sat inside it

You are supposed to be revising - I'm sure AO forums will not be on your exam papers
