I dove the TS and the V6 back to back today. The V6 seems bouncier, dunno if it's te extra weight, but I'm thinking of some new dampers.

OK, I 'stole' the 156 back this evening ;) I'm aiming to get it cleaned on Saturday then we'll get the photos sorted for you. FYI Tax is end of November, MOT is June. I need to replace the sidelight bulb :( and the airbag warning needs resetting. Other than that, you can see from the photos.

Is there any?

Hi folks, The GTV which has given me so much fun has to go. http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/207665.htm Andy Wilson

I'm in the US and I'd like to have the 2.4 JTD engine, but getting a car in here is quite out of the question. I'm thinking it would be fun to get an engine and swap it into a Spider, as getting engines in isn't too hard. has anyone done a swap, and are there any guides to the electronics, wiring...

I keep thinking I want to see how fast my 2.5L V6 Alfa 156 can go without getting nicked for speeding. Are trackdays - wherever they are? - suitable for this? I just want a relatively safe environment to give it a bit of a thrash. Has anyone got any suggestions for venues/events. I live in...

Hi, This related to an 'S' reg - Alfa 156 - 2.5 litre V6. Yesterday I got that 'injector' warning light (in the rev counter display) and lack of acceleration power. Bit like a towel stuffed in the air inlet! I assume that this is probably the Air Flow Meter assembly. Fault lasted for about an...

Anybody have a good (read *cheap*) oil pump source for a 105-series 1750? :twisted:

I think I may be. Picked up the V6 on Saturday, and had hours of fun driving to and from Bedford. Was thinking that I should replace the gearknob as the the original is a bit worn, made mental note that I'd need a lift collar design, and that the usual advice regarding extreme violence to...

Anybody have any ideas about a couple of gremlins I am experiencing with my 2005 1.9 JTD? With my windows, they stop working if one of the front doors is opened when the ignition (engine) is on. The only way I can then operate them is to switch off the ignition and then back on again. Quite...

Hi all, I run a 2003 2.5 V6 166, I went to use the car today, tried to open the doors today via the key fob and although the alarm beeped and lights flashed as normal there was no clunk of the central locking (unlocking or locking). I now have to lock all the doors manually via the key. I...
