Curious if anyone else came across this - my Tonanle is only two months old and these two things disappeared suddenly and never came back. If anyone can help, much appreciated! I love this car and don’t want to bring it into the shop for just this.
Hey everyone i’ve got an Alfa Romeo 159 2.0jtdm, and I’ve noticed that in colder weather, the coolant temp only gets up to around 60-70°C after a normal drive. Is this normal, or could it be an issue with the thermostat or something else? Just want to know if I should be worried. Thanks
I am going to post this evry day, today we do THE MOST UNDERRATED CAR. Top coment gets on the list
Hello everyone,
I will be changing my 2020 Ti Sport's oil this weekend. I read online that to reset the indicator, you must floor the accelerator three times with the engine off and the ignition on within 10s. Can anyone vouch for this? Will this only reset on the dash?
Does anyone have experience removing the front air deflector on a 2020 Alfa Romeo Giulia? I ordered the replacement part and have it on hand, but after taking out the screws underneath the front fascia, I didn’t see any clear way to access it. Any tips or guidance would be much appreciated!
So pretty new to car mechanics/maintenance and posted on here a while ago asking for any advise or help with choosing coolant or any specific procedures for replacing coolant/bleeding my spider and got zero responses and essentially had to go in blind with general procedures and a few forum posts that didn’t really help.
Now it won’t bleed through the reservoir or radiator or idle on its own (previously idled fine when warm or after 30-40 seconds of manual idling via throttle pedal/linkage). My current theory’s are that I’ve missed a bleeder port/screw somewhere due to no visible movement of air or coolant level in reservoir or radiator, with my second theory being that the thermostat has gotten stuck closed which could explain the over heating issues on drives of less than 2.5 miles prior to coolant change and it not bleeding air.
I’ve been hesitant to start taking things apart as even with both consumer and factory maintenance/mechanics manuals I feel I don’t have enough info to reliably and accurately disassemble and reassemble so any advise or info if incredibly appreciated
Was looking at pictures of the interior of the 2024 Tonale and I noticed a small Italian flag near the gear shifter. Now on the Alfa Romeo website when you build your own Tonale it appears as well, but I see videos of the interior or pictures of it and many times it’s not there. Anyone know the reason for this?
Ive changed front suspension, rebuilt front brakes, new wheels. Always after bigger work car brakes perfectly smooth but after a while the problem comes back. In confused and got ideas left whan can it be. The problem was gone for a week or two mainly after tyre change and brakes rebuild. Vibrations on wheel and pedal get progresively bigger but its not constant during ride, randomly one time its very distinct and next braking can be smooth. But it grows over time to a point where whole car shakes.
Its alfa 159 sw.
A few 159s with under 100,000km are being sold at suspiciously low prices in comparison to other brands with the same age and hp in my area.
I’ve been on-site to check three of them out to rigorously test each one and can’t figure out why the price is so low?
Are there any massive issues with the 159s I’m not aware of?
Thanks to Dipesh at Alfa Nuneaton, I will miss my Giulietta but wow the Stelvio is on another level.
It is a previous rental with 36k miles in 2 years, asking $25606. They probably do the oil change and maintanance in their own shop so I could not look at the record on an autocheck report that the dealer provided. I test drove the car and I think the engine did sound noiser than it should be. Never had any experiences with Alfas. Any concerns? Also cross-shopping with some Audi and BMWs. But at the same price range I am looking at way higher mileages and years.
Is there any way to lock the drive mode so that I don’t have to manually tune it to “Dynamic” every time I start the car? When I initially saw the knob I read that it remained that the last place it was set.
Not a huge deal to have to do it, but every time I find myself driving more than 10 minutes on Normal I think, “what if I died tomorrow. Those 10 minutes were wasted”. Would like to keep it locked on dynamic
Hi everyone.
I recently am interested in Alfa Romeo®. I was wondering how much would an extended warranty cost for eight years and 125,000 miles? Is there an official website I could purchase an extended warranty directly from Mopar?
Thanks forall the replies!
Hello guys;
I have a 2017 Giulia Ti Sport. It needs a new battery as I am experiencing some tell-tale signs. Any suggestions on what battery?
I got a quote from the dealership— $700 for battery and work.
Is this something I can do myself? I have seen some YouTube videos that seem to show the process being fairly simple.
Thanks
It sounds like my intake, started to idol at a complete stop as well
Hey Guys, Does anyone know how to get rid of this change oil light. Service was done, but oil light remains. Oil levels are good etc.
Have tried numerous options online with none of them worked, but can’t seem an option how to reset the oil change light on a stelvio q4 diesel.
Would anyone be able to assist, that had the same issue?
Hello everyone, my wife has a Guilia Veloce and she brought it to my attention that the sunroof have been rattling so I spent about 40 minutes of my time looking into it. I figured out the problem and fixed it. Takes about $10 and 20 minutes to fix. I hope this helps some people. 🍻 🥂
I am quite new to Maintenace and repairs, so my knowledge isn't the most extensive when it comes to more specific questions. Currently, my handbrake in my Guilletta does not stay up when trying to pull the handbrake. I don't feel any clicks, and it will just fall down when pull it up. The actual button does spring back up when i press it, and the handbrake does work when holding it up, it just doesn't stay up. I've seen some advice about having to tighten the cable, but I was hoping anyone had some insight into how to start troubleshooting what the issue could be. Any insight or advice would be greatly appreciated
Hey guys i have a giulietta 14tbi 170hp . When i go high revs and start some aggresive Drive , engine kicks back and if i continue to force it lights check engine light and blinks it, car starts vibrations . After restart everything goes normal . Do you have any clue?
I just got a 159 a month ago and It has the 136 HP engine so I am curious to know If it's the same engine and if it's possible to set up it to the original 170 HP tune.
Hi,
I found a couple of 2018 Giulia Quadrifoglio with less than 20k miles for about $40,000 on Carvana. 2 owners no issue reported.
Is this price normal? It seems suspiciously low? Any idea why?
I mean, if they give away Quadrifoglios for half the price I'm not gonna say no :D
