alfizta 6 Report post Posted October 25, 2013 (edited) version "2" of the variator solenoid butchered, for all you alfa nerds to see. part no. 71736025 if you get a p1653 fault code with "high signal" on a twin spark and you got this version of the solenoid, then is probably faulty, and it's not repairable. just couldn't dismantle the black cylinder, where actually the solenoid is. version "1" repair guide coming soon...

alfizta 6 Report post Posted November 3, 2013 but I got to admit. is not understandable for such such an expensive part to be wrecked in just 60 000 miles... fortunately you can get some 2nd hand ones on ebay... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
