Ok I'm bordering on trolling here but after the response to my rear spoiler comment! Except in the dark, what does the group think about the use of the front fog lights?

Hi I am interested in boosting power output on a 1.5 single carb sprint motor. I need more BHP and importantly torque. I am currently overhauling the engine and am thinking of super and turbocharging, but having problems of where to mount a supercharger. I can get a merc c200 kompressor localy. Any...

Hi guys, I need a favour - I have a 2001 2.0l GTV that I love to bits, but the wife is pressuring me to trade it in for a "sensible" car (not being able to fit the kids in it seems sensible to me, but that's another story...) that is a bit cheaper to run. I have the dreaded 60k service looming,...

Just started to get clutch slip on the GT. Strangely, this occurs not in low gears / hard acceleration, but in higher gears (say 4th) when accelerating away from a roundabout for example. This seems very early at 26000 miles! Is there any adjustment on the clutch, or will it be a new one. Could it...

Just seen a Brera, Gold, (2.4 JTDM) on Contract Hire 10,000 per annum, 2 years hire, fully maintained for £480 per month. It has 7,000 on the clock ..... Should I? -- Thanks, Domestos --------------------------------------------------------

Hi all! I have an Alfa 147, which is almost 4 years old with 37,000 miles. I absolutely loved it when I first bought it, but then things started to go wrong. First, there were a few wiring problems, where airbag warning light kept coming on and I had to take it to a garage 4 time for the...

has anyone got access to the 164 3.0 v6 workshop manual or could upload it for a new 164 owner thanks.

Just spent all day on this - just to change the headlamp washer stop valve! Not mentioned in the 156 service manual for the JTD is that the three upper retaining screws on the LHS are not as described - only the petrol car is described. The one nearest the front is a badly corroded nut and bolt...

Is there anyway to put roof racks on a Alfa GT? Would be great to be able to put the surfboards on top the car. Thanks, Mikael Sundell

What are the correct pressure's for 215/45/R17 on a 147 JTD, are they the same as 205/55/R16's ?

What sort of slippy stuff do you choose to put in your motors? I bought some Comma 5w30 semi synthetic, though at 22 quid a tub I may elect for something cheaper in the future given the rate at which it (156 2.0TS 2002) seems to 'use' it. What do people use/prefer? Is the dear stuff any...

On the 2.0 JTS, do you have a square cut out on the front offside corner of the undertray? i.e when you look down through the engine, can you see the road in the left corner just behind the headlight? It's just that it looks different since returning from the garage and also the wind noise and...

Hi I've a problem about my 147.. I don't know why the right fog light doesn't work, it shoud be the same light of the reverse that work properly. Also fuses seem ok.. suggestions?

Hello, The previous post caught my eye, as this past weekend I experienced 3-4 episodes of a loss of power for a 1988 US-spec Aprider Veloce w/ bosch injection. It idles fine, and the loss of power is very intermittant and so far has always gone away. I've changed the plugs and air...

Hello group, I was hoping someone might be able to help me out with this one... I've got an 87 Alfa Romeo, 43k miles. last week when I was driving home the car would vibrate a little and make a sound like I was driving down the rumble strip (that gap on the right hand lane so you don't go off the...
