I would avoid it. Anything can go wrong but do many dealers and indeed good specialists have such limited knowledge of the system that a fault can be a nightmare. There are often Selespeed Alfas on eBay cheap with a fault.

Not worth the potential hassle.

Think people are just scared of it. But I don't believe its any less likely of failure than any other part.

No, but if it does, there it's a massive lack of indie and dealer support, parts are expensive and the majority aren't very handy with the spanners let alone diagnostics.

If you have a choice, why set yourselves up for a fall?
