Is the GT the ideal car? by Catman
It must be damned close. So far it's been high speed motorways, then today, I loaded a Christmas Tree into the damned thing! *Fantastic*! -- Catman MIB#14 SKoGA#6 TEAR#4 BOTAFOF#38 Apostle#21 COSOC#3 Tyger, Tyger Burning Bright (Remove rust to reply) 116 Giulietta 3.0l Sprint 1.7 GTV TS 156 V6...

Failing battery by GT[_12_]
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...

I Doubt It by Zathras
What's the chances of the upcoming Alfa 1750 TBI (petrol turbo) actually sounding like this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GCUw8gzpTnw None..I think. Sounds more like a tuned 6, possibly a 12, to me. Traumatic brain injury - an excellent description for an Alfa? -- Z

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

Windscreen washer jets clogged by GT[_12_]
Windscreen washers. 4 holes at passenger side, 3 are blocked. 4 holes at drivers side, 2 holes are blocked and 1 is dribbling. How do I get to clean them without removing too much 'car'? I have tried a pin etc, but they need to be removed and/or jetted somehow.

Sillyspeed... by SteveH[_2_]
I should have known this would happen. Car is a 2002 built (facelift interior) 2.0 Selespeed Veloce. Fault code: P1742 - Selection Range Sensor. Am I correct in assuming this is the actuator, and will be hugely expensive to fix? On the other hand, I joined the ranks of the Italian...

MOT Time! by R C Nesbit
Having bought the 156 with 10 months MOT on it, I mis-remembered that the MOT ran out on 5th Nov! Any road, it went in today, and failed! Previous MOT had an Advisory that there was a leak in the flexible exhaust hose. This time it failed on the same thing! :^( On the plus side, it is now much...

Dead 159 by Simon Mason
The 159 died last night in the driveway. I traced the fault to the fact that the quick release clamp to the negative battery post was barely of a small enough diameter to actually grip the post. Had to wrap some aluminium foil around it to make it wider. Poor design. -- Simon...

Catman server down? by Bert Kanters[_2_]
Hi Catman, I noticed I couldn't log on to my part of www.cuore-sportivo.co.uk, I was hosting my Alfasud page there for years (thanks for that again!). Also your main page is not working for some days now. Will it be back online? Currently I'm upgrading my Suds brakes to 155 V6 front and 166...

156 Speedo failed any ideas? by David A Stocks[_3_]
156 2.4 JTD 2000. It dropped to zero about 30 miles from home on a long journey yesterday - and the miles have stopped clocking up as well. It sometimes comes back but not for very long. AFAIAA it gets its feed from the ABS wheel sensors. The ABS system still seems to work OK - no warning lights...

Pikey tyres by R C Nesbit
The 156 was in need of a pair of front tyres, but since my financial partners pulled out in June I am flat broke most of the time. So I called in to The Tyre Shop, purveyors of cheap rubber to the denizens of Ollerton (ex mining village) and bought a pair of economy branded fronts for the...

3 Questions in 1 post... by GT[_11_]
Q1 - MAFs: I can relate to the "scalded cat / bus" post the other day and I have read the "dirty or faulty MAF" answer to so many similar posts that I presume this is also my problem, but not being particularly mechanically confident... MAF = Mass Air Flow. Clearly the engine needs the right...
