Problem Description: While driving the (usually on “city” mode) the car
would stay in one gear, i.e. 3rd, and would not change to a higher or a

button (to turn it off) it refuses. This led me...

AR in Gloucestershire by
Simon C
Hi all
Now that Cleveley Cars has gone in to administration, can someone recommend
the closest and best AR dealer to the Gloucester area.
To be honest I'm about slap bang in the middle of Cheltenham, Swindon and
Bristol, so anything around these areas will do.
TIA

156 EOBD Problem by
LJS
Hi all,
The EOBD light has come on on my 156 2.5 v6 - power is down and performance
is awful. Does the engine de-tune when it senses a fault ?
What can be the problem when this light comes on, am I looking at a big bill
here or is there usually a simple answer, like a faulty sensor.
Any advice...

changing brake pad 'cages' ?? by
NC
Turns out that a long term knocking sound coming from the front of my
156 (1999, 1.8TS) is due to the brake pads moving in their housing. Any
idea how much (in the UK) it might cost to get the cages changed ?? 9Not
sure if 'cages' is the right word - its the caliper bit where the pad sits).

Connect telephone showing "connection not available" by
Arnoud Reininga
I just bought a new sim-card for the telephone in the connect nav+ system of
my alfa 147. I've got the system working once, but it seems very unstable.
Most of the times when I want to dial a number it gives the message
"Connection not available", and it will not dial. The strange thing is that

Air Con Serviced but still hot air by
Mr Flipflops
Ok guys, the air con has been serviced at £100 plus £30 for a new
pollen filter. It hasn't solved the problem (hot air instead of cold).
According to the dealer, there is a mixer motor behind the dash that they
think might be causing the problem. Obviously, this requires the dashboard
to be...

Air Conditioning Playing Up On '00 156 by
Stuart Ewen
Hey Guys
I never had air conditioning in my previous car, so I thought it would be
relatively straightforward to use. Last night, however, it was really
getting under my skin. Thought I'd make it cooler, so turned it down from
21 to 18. The fan starts blowing harder like you'd expect, but the...

the revs to nothing.
Also only when cold when cruising in 5th if I come off the accelerator it
drops out of 5th and into neutral.
