Lowering suspension on Alfa's with ESP by
Alfistagj

Hmmmm, noisy...... by
Catman
Day trip from Harlow to Boulogne today. I knew the middle box on the 75
needed replacing but I figured it would hang on for a few more weeks......

About 5 miles out of Dover (at least it was on the home leg) *very* loud
noisiness starts. I figured the patch had blown out
