  1. crank sensor maybe Does it start after you leave it for 30mins to cool down? Is the "check engine" light lit?
  2. Sorry but no one here is going to tell you how to cover up a problem to sell your car. If you want to fix the squeak for example, replacing the upper wishbone bushes will cure it.
  3. When my battery failed, the dash lights did a disco lightshow. Didn't yours do this?
  4. Or have the replacement ballasts professionally potted. Problem permanently solved.
  5. The non button facelift fit okay though. Will probably sell the button one anyway. Too much work to wire up. Still haven't braved retro fitting my OEM headlights either
  6. I couldn't be bothered to wait for something to arrive on a slow boat from China. So I bought one of these (including the airbag) for £10 + £5 postage. Arrived in 3 days and took 10 mins to fit. No modifications went straight on and is still perfect 6 years on. If I can ever be bothered, I might fit this one. £10 + £10 postage this time but no airbag
  7. Disconnect earth strap. Clean with a stiff brush. Apply liberal coating of dielectric grease.
  8. As well as loads of other makes/models http://metro.co.uk/2015/08/18/volkswagen-kept-huge-key-security-flaw-secret-for-two-years-5348992/
  9. I would call your nearest Alfa/Fiat parts centre and ask for part number 0071713715 (as per image provided by Smaky). No great saving by buying online as its a cheap part to begin with.
  10. No idea but mine is still the original on a 2000 156TS. Still looks like new.

    New Alfa

    Unfortunately, the best "bit" will be on the out of reach top model. The Ferrari collaborated engine giving 510hp with a 0-60mph of 3.9sec.
  14. Check this how to out. Not mine but had it saved since I did mine ages ago. http://greenserpent.unospace.net/howtos/156_V6_intake_mod.pdf The GTA part numbers are at the end.
  15. GTA V6 is the better option. The 2.5 V6 pipe is smaller in diameter.
  16. Take your MAF out. Remove the actual sensor fro the tube. Make a note of the sensors part number NOT the one on the tube. Search google for other cars that use that sensor and which is cheapest. Visit that cars part supplier and purchase. Then mount that sensor in your old but now freshly cleaned tube and remount to car. I did this a while back and only paid around £50 for a new bosch.
  17. Welcome Steve. Always lusted after a GTV V6. Feel free to post plenty of pics.
  18. Hoping to get mine back on the road after two years of storage. Was with you up to then so hope to get a decent quote to come back.
  19. Don't let the door hit you in the arse on your way out " "
  20. I thought the clutch on the compressor wouldn't engage if gas was low ie low pressure?
  21. I ordered parts on the phone/email from Desira a year ago and had them posted. Great prices too.

    Only way to know for sure is to take a look.
