Hi all, AutoExpress newsletter mentions a GT Spider to be coming soon. Anyone seen the magazine yet? I'm curious because I intend to order my GT this Saturday. But when the GT Spider is coming shortly................ -- Ciao from Holland AlfistaGJ (Gert-Jan) Alfa red 156 SW 1.8 Madeno tuned...

Vuona 2007 ilmoitettiin, että sähkön kulutus oli kääntynyt pysyväismuutosta ennakoivaan laskunsa. Vaikka ydinala vedätteli vielä eetteriin peräti liki +10% kasvuhaaveitaan oli totuus karu, mutta selkeä -1%. Tämän vuoden alussa T&T ilmoitteli sitten jo yhä SELKEÄMMIN kiihtyvää sähköntarpeen laskua....

Feels like an itch that needs to be scratched, I've always loved the look of the 156 and always fancied a 2.4 JTD - and would suit me best in Sportwagon form. Currently using a 320d which never breaks down, nor ever had a fault in over 50k miles. Am I mad to consider one!? I have a beady eye on...

Mikä ihmeen 80%? Lukasin lehden 5.6.2008 ja nyt on suorastaan outoa ilmassa. Miltei jokainen Suomen ja MYÖS Ruotsin ydinvoimalat kaikki pörrää mystisellä 80 % tehollaan? HalloUU? Miksei joku 75 % tai vaikka 90 %?? Ja miksei ydinala lainkaan asiaa kommentoi vaikka miljoonat palaa poikineen kuin...

My 1999 156 is constantly damp internally, is there a pollen filter or similar that could be holding water?

I have an alfa 2.4 jtd..the performance has dramatically fallen off,car has only 40.000 miles,will not deliver full performance, hard to get it to rev in top gear,running on a light or trailing throttle it’s a bit better, but put the car under full throttle or load and it’s just as iff it hits a "...

Where has the JTS option gone on the 159?? alfa romeo website car configurator offers the 1750 tb as the only petrol option now! I would have thought that the 2.2 JTS would be much torquier and relaxed drive than the 1750 turbo and similar BHPs. When did this happen and why wasn't I informed!!

Doing too many short trips these days and I've had to charge the battery twice so far this month. A 70 mile roundtrip (start+37 miles, stop, start+37 miles), seems to put about 15 or so 'starts' back into it and turns the indicator green. Unfortunately, we keep doing short 1-2 mile trips...

My 2002 156 just failed it's first MOT because of the wear on the front tyres. The inners are worn right down, and the rest of the tyres are down to the wear indicators. I put these boots on in January this year e.g. 11 months ago! They are Goodyears and I expected better than 12,000 miles...

Hi. I have recently fixed a 3.0 V6 engine after it had taken up water. I replaced 2 conrods, pistions and liners. When i started it up first time it was very noisy. Hydraulic tappets weren't something or other. Well after about 30 miles they have quietened down. But now there is another problem - a...

Almost everything is back to 100% factory. It sure looks and runs great except that damn crack on the top of the dash... anyone have a suggestion where I can find one? Thanks, Joe Cortney Dallas

Today, my 156 doesen't feel like other days: between 3500 and 5000 RPMs, the engine is something like 'strangled', it has some hesitation in giving power... finally, a momentary lapse of power. (Pink Floyd enthusiast will understand me ;-) Monday the light 'engine failure' came up, stayed turned on...

hi, anyone ever R&R ignition switch? I disassembled part of the steering column n managed to remove the *internals* of the switch, but not the entire switch housing? how can this housing be removed from the stearing column? i know i still need to disconnect 3-4 wires but cant seem to reach those...

Hello again As mentioned in a previous post, I'm a complete newbie, not only to Alfas but to cars in general (only owned a car for a year). So I have a few questions.... They will probably seem daft, but here goes anyway. For an Alfa 156 1.8TS 16v - UK version 1) Cleaning the engine. How would I...

Does anyone have any suggestions for a replacement bumper for a '77 Spider? I've heard people say that a '72 to '74 Spider bumper is a good option, but finding one is another thing. I even heard someone say that a rear bumper from a mid-80s VW Rabbit GTI is a good fit. Can anyone verify...
