Hi All I've just registered on this forum to try and help my Uncle. I bought him & my Aunty a 147, 2l selespeed off a colleague as their replacement car as they desperately needed one. Unfortunately they started getting a problem, the car wouldn't select 4th gear. They ad it checked by a garage and codes P1747 & P1748 were thrown up, cleared but reoccured. A sort while later the car also stopped selecting reverse. Its been to their local Alfa specialist (KAP of Eastbourne), on the first visit they had it for 2 days and failed to get to it diagnosed. KAP have just had it back for a week to diagnose it again, and have removed the gearbox to do this ( ) and claim that there is water in the box and £3k needs to be spent on a new box. I'm not convinced and I think that they're possibly exploiting the fact that Uncle is not mechanically minded in the slightest.. As the car ia some way from me its making it difficult for me to get to look at it. Subsequently, from research, I've found a few things it could be but I wondered if any one could give me an incling of where to start please? Many thanks in advance
