Alloy Wheels by
Tom Boltwood
I've just come into some 164 3.0 Super alloys. However, my TSpark is 4 stud
and the 3.0 was 5 Stud. Stupidly, I assumed that 164s would all have the
same wheel fixings. I'm a bit of a novice when it comes to wheels, so can
anyone tell me:
a) why they have different stud patterns on these...

156 restyle: Last chance to buy a new future classic? by
Barry Bingham
Saw a copy of "Practical Classic Car" or some such in WHSmugs yesterday
& they were listing cars made in the last five years most likely to
become classics in x years time.
156 was top of the list, with a prediction that it would be the earlier
pre-facelift cars with original nose, interesting...

Alfa 156 GTA vs A4 with sports suspension? by
MacIglebek
For three years, I owned a 156 2.0 Selespeed. Unfortunately, a Toyota Hiace
hit me in a front accident and totally smashed the car. Immediately after, I
replaced the car by an Audi A4 2.0FSI (shame on me) with sports suspension
and 18" rims.
Today, I had a testdrive of a used 156 MY2001, similar...

Hi guys - I'm new to this forum. I was given an old Alpha Spider 1974 as
a wedding present - and its sitting in a garage in Italy without a
license plate and a mechanic saying I need to change some things to get

How much?! by
MarkK
A bit of an announcement: I've sold my 156 after 3.5 years with it. Tough
decision, but the other half found the family car, a 406 estate, too big. So
I got her an Audi A2 (great car by the way), and I'm taking on the 406.
Also, as pointed out elsewhere, I'm expecting 156 values to drop with...

Alfa 164 Electric Window problem by
Emjay
Hello folks,
Thought I'd ask the audience for some advice before I leap in with my
screwdriver !
Both front windows on our Alfa 164 (2.0TS) intermittently stop
working. The nearside blows the 30A fuse occasionally, and the
offside window wont move (or gets stuck).
You can here a small relay...

Tyre Advice, Please. by
Ross
Hi All
I'm due 2 new tyres on the front of my 147 1.6 soon and would appreciate
some advice.
It's currently fitted with Goodyear Eagle NCT5's which give great grip and
feel but I'd like some more life (16K miles and down to 2mm) and they are a
bit noisy on a lot of surfaces.
I'm tempted to stick...

Alfa radio reception by
Neil Waterworth
Is it just my car or where I live, or is the Alfa 156 aerial (I believe
built into the rear screen) useless for long wave and medium wave radio
reception? Also, if the aircon is running, it gets even worse. My crap old
Renault, with the classic pointy metal stick on the roof never had a
problem....

How to tell a different trim version by
Charlie Money
Hi all
Looking at buying an older 156 T-spark as a second car. Struggling to
work out what trim level/designation it is and nothing to really give
me any cluse.
It's a 2000 2.0 T-Spark with full leather interior, but other than
that looks fairly standard. No cruise etc. How do I tell whether it...

What are mid 90's Alfas like on LPG? by
MeatballTurbo
As the time to actually buy a new car approaches, I just an inredible
thought. While the Saab has to go, period, I could get something with an
equally juicy engine if it could be run on LPG.
While I said before, no V6's because of economy, maybe that wouldn't be
the case if it could safely and...

156 driver's seat - lumbar adjust broken?? by
fmt
Hi folks,
I've never tried to adjust the lumbar setting to the driver's seat of
my 156, until today that is....now I wish I hadn't bothered!
Whereas the passenger's seat knob turns quite heavily and can clearly
be seen to be doing some alterations to the seat back, the driver's
side just appeared...
