WTCC Monza by
Tony Rickard
It was nice to see Augusto Farfus fend off the BMWs to win the 2nd World
Touring Car Championship (WTCC) race at Monza in his 156. Unfortunately
he was assaulted by another factory 156 in the first corner of the first
race :( but finished 8th. The Brazilian driver is 2nd overall to Yvan
Muller in a...

Regular readers may remember me ranting about a cambelt failure on a 156GTA.
To cut a long story short, I had suggested that I had had a bad deal, having
been charged over £2000 to be told that there was "no damage". Having
written in October and failed to make contact with anyone until December,...

Just a reminder by
alfistagj
Spring is just around the corner, so a little reminder that now is
the time to change the air in the tyres of our Alfa's. Old air
results in inferior handling and higher fuel consumption and Alfa
recommends air replacement every 20000 km or 12 months, whichever
comes sooner.
Although it...

The new Alfa Sud by
John, UK.
Has anyone seen the news in Auto Express this week on the new Alfa Sud?
If, and I'm sure it will, compare with the old Sud, it should be a
little stunner. They think, Due out 2008 .
Looking at the picture the designers have done a cracking job, although
I am wondering what engine they will use?...

Robert
Have been out of UK for over a year, now, and when last there tried
the nifty sportswagon 6 speed, was told by the dealer that Alfa were
bringing out a 450 or 460 bhp engined model.... did this ever happen.
And sad oh so sad, no Alfa dealers in the US - well not offcial ones
anyway. (Wonders if...

New tyres for 156 - Eagle GSD3 v GSD2 by
[email protected]
Hi All,
I need to get a new set of rear tyres for my Alfa 156 2.5 V6.
Currently It has Avon ZV3s on the front and Eagle F1s (don't know which
revision) on the back, which is how it was when I bought it.
I need to replace the rears now, and the fronts probably in the summer,
so want to get 4...

Alfa 147 1.6 TS leaking power steering fluid by
davea
Hi folks
I posted a topic a few weeks back because my 147 petrol was making a
"diesel" sounding noise when it starts up as well as a whirring noise
when I turn the wheel. Thanks for the replies for this.
This noise went away when I topped up the power steering fluid but when
I checked the level...

Alfa 147 51 plate "diesel" sounding engine by
davea
Hi All
I've just bought an Alfa 147 51 plate 1.6 TS in January. When I start
the engine from cold it makes a loud "diesely" sound which goes away
after 5 mins. Also now it's making a louder whirring noise (which seems
to be coming from the belts) as well. It gets louder when you turn the
steering...

Alfa 156 by
Jim
Took delivery of one of the last 156's on Monday. 1.9 JTD 16v multijet.
What a car! I really love it. I know it's old now but it's not tainted
with the 'chav' image like the German lacklustre cars. And the road
holding is just magical.
I didn't think I could get this excited any more!
