Alfa 156 rear windows by mabsy
The rear windows on my alfa do not seem to work. Power is getting there because they click when switches are pressed. Child safety lock seems to work as this stops the click sound when switched on, any help would be much appreciated.

Fuel injection by Mike
Dear all, Perhaps someone can help me with the folowing issue. Recently I have begun to notice erratic acceleration in my Alfa 146 TS (1997 build). This mostly upon moving away in 1st and into 2nd gear. After the engine has warmed up, it does not tend to happen. This week I also noticed the fuel...

new brakes by GT[_1_]
Does £550 sounds excessive for discs + pads all round (genuine alfa part) on a 2002 156 JTS 2.0? Is there a cheaper alternative make which will still stop the car as efficiently and which I might convince my alfa garage (Edinburgh Georgie Rd, Arnold Clark) to fit?

Low oil pressure - 2.0L Alfa Spider by Mark Hickey
Syptoms: Oil pressure is fine at start-up. After 3-5 minutes, it drops to about 1/4 the normal pressure at road speeds (maintains enough pressure at idle to keep the light off, but doesn't register much on the gauge. The engine had a recent overhaul (probably <5000 miles ago). Yep, dropped the...

Alfa 156 TSpark Catalytic Converter by SteveH
I suppose it had to happen at some point - given that the car has around 120k miles on it now - the 'brick' inside the catalyst has come loose and is rattling around inside it's housing. A bit of digging around on the 'net shows that they can be had for very little money - around 80 quid,...
