  3. I been to two garages said I need a replacement cam phase sensor. Smaky has arrived and has his hands all over my ring!
  4. Car will stay, huzzah. At least il have fresh cambelt, water pump & aux belt.
  5. Well they would, they're retarded, CAM / CRANK, even my 9 y/o daughter spottted the difference and if Cloverleaf quoted 1 hour for a cam sensor then they aint doing it right. Car being taken to Harry bucklands on Thursday to be weighed in, unless the car is bought. Your gonna scrap it for this???? A mere crank sensor, £50 tops. Smaky I sent you a PM. It's the camshaft phase sensor. Parents persuaded me to keep the car if I can get sum1 friendly to help fix it, ovb il supply £££ for labour.

  8. Would like to see if I can get £300 for her in her current condition.
  9. Bloody hell! .... by the time you've stuck VAT on that you're talking £700, near as damn it. Bye bye 156...... Buy a replacement engine for just over £1k! Unfortunately this means the end of the 156, and end of Alfa's for a while!

  11. £590 + VAT Phase sensor + cambelt + Variator! Outward the cost of the car as I paid £475. It's not worth it so it!
  12. It did it! The old girl did the 133 mile trip! I could cry, now in traffic heading to cloverleaf.

  15. HELP!!!!!! Car runs and plan to take it back on M5, keeping below 3,000rpm so around 65mph! I can't see why it won't it made it down here. If it does need cam, Variator drive belt etc then I'd rather Pete do the work than a non Alfa specialist.
  16. Garage want to replace everything!!! Pahahaga I can't afford £1000
  17. In garage @ Paignton, quoted 6 hours work to change the Cam Positioning sensor.... Err Cloverleaf quoted 1 hours work. Someone help me out?
  18. When I said the symptoms straight away he said cam sensor, and ok labour charge for 1 hour is a lil steep but at least it's going to a specialists! The recovery bloke said yesterday my Spark plugs are in good nick so I won't change those!
