Sunburnsam 2nd Gear December 2, 2015 Share December 2, 2015 Saw a beautiful black GT with a sweet rumbling sound on Monday at West Coast Esso Kiosk. The exhaust note is so delightful to the ear. The GT design is really Master Piece. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrispie and Sjourn are few of the longest time 159 owners, other than Count who is still holding on like me. Maybe someday you will return to Alfa since the Giulia looks promising.

Count_duku 4th Gear December 14, 2015 Share December 14, 2015 (edited) Even at the final year, still throwing money at the car - 2nd time engine mount replaced (blown for > 6 months already). I chose to repair it now cos there were recent faults, leaks that could be linked to it. The car drives okay, except for some sluggishness. The exhaust tips are black with carbon so the insides are probably worse. I suspect a partially clogged cat or muffler (any cheap way to service this?). Yeah, I am tempted too - why not change car and forget about all the repairs .. but I do learn a lot keeping an old car. It's become more of a hobby now.

Agree, treating it like a hobby is less frustrating and there is stuff to tinker and learn. I am also due to change the top engine mount, second time round. The hige pressure power steering pipe is already the second time changed. Clear some carbon to Melaka, sure is good exercise for bella to clear its inards.

Clear some carbon to Melaka, sure is good exercise for bella to clear its inards. Same - power-steering high pressure hose also changed second time some months ago. Good thing when the fluid is low it makes some whining noise. Now I try to refrain from full locking the steering. Today sent the car for PDR treatment, have been driving with a huge dent on the fender for a while now ( cannot tahan the eyesore on its beautiful lines).
