Cruise Control Stalk - 156 Jts

[Alfa156Melb 9]

Smaky, the the rotary knob on my cruise stalk is failing so it's time to replace it, can I just get the stalk, or is it part of the full stalk cluster?

 

Looking at the pic, it looks like its separate - perhaps it depends on the model? In Australia only one JTS was released - fully spec'd.. so there was no choice here and as such I have no idea what the options were in the UK...

 

The pic below is from Alfa Workshop and it seems to be the only variation they offer as far as I can tell...

 

 

Also, are they easy to dismantle and replace? (probably not)

I got the answer, local dealer wants $1200 for a new cluster... whoa.

 

At least I know they come in one unit now. I'm staggered at how expensive it is locally?! I shouldn't be, everything else in Australia is, but this is ridiculous.

 

Edit: Just checked prices in the UK - $450... amazing.

 

Still, I think I'll just go to a wrecker...

Approach your dealer with the part number 156047955

I looked that up in eper and it doesn't tell me anything.. What is it?

 

Edit - OK found it, so that will retro fit on my model? 2003 2.0 JTS interior facelift.

 

I ask, becuase the dealer assured me that the stalk is part of the full cluster and could not be seperated...

Not that i believe much of what they say!

That is the C/C stalk all on its own and is a simple plug and play. Your dealer has no clue what theyare talking about.

Yeah i saw what it was, and thats great news looks like a simple job to fit too

 

thanks Smaky, you've saved me a fortune...

requires 2little screws to hold it in too and a slot cutting in the lower shroud
