Saabretooth 2nd Gear October 13, 2013 Share October 13, 2013 how was the torque curve? can text me if not convenient to mention it. anyway any recommendation for coolant, doing a complete drain on my next servicing. For your coolant, do a complete flush, change out your water pump and your piping as well. use the normal coolant that you're supposed to use. I like to use Millers coolant enhancer. does not leave precipitates or residues. http://www.millersoils.co.uk/automotive/tds-automotive.asp?prodsegmentID=193§or=Motorsport Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desmojon 1st Gear October 14, 2013 Share October 14, 2013 Better go get it checked. I had the same message that went away after restart, so I thought nothing of it. My Bella rewarded me with a trip up the tow truck about a month later. I notice my gearbox is leaking oil again. Gonna get it fixed real soon. Yes. Now at AS checking. This morning the system does not allow me to start the car even. Tried a few times then manage to fire her up. I quickly come AS. Weird thing is half way to AS the gearbox revert to normal. Maybe Bella is not happy I did so many non-Alfa days Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thingy 1st Gear October 14, 2013 Share October 14, 2013 Wear and tear I understand. My mileage is around 95K ... the workshop was telling me people change around 50 - 60,000 KM, got one extreme case is change at 30,000. So I guess mine is reasonable, I was planning to do a major maintenance to change all the worn out parts one shot when I hit 100,000 KM. 95km and you haven't change your clutch before? Not bad leh... My lemon friend changed clutch at 30k++.... ANother one change clutch at 70k++ ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
