A little birdie even told me that his can sweep the floor on Mitsubishi Evos and Subaru STIs in the twisties on Genting, with the sole reason being… because Alfa.
There are however a few common problems that plague this Italian sedan. The front tracking and alignment is prone to go awry.
Check for excessive wear on the inner edges of the front tires. Lower arms and engine mounts tend to also give up the ghost more often than one might think due to the weight issue.
Coolant leaks due to cracked coolant hoses have been reported by some owners. The coolant expansion tank also does have a tendency to crack. The Selespeed flappy-paddle gearbox too has been known to cause a few headaches. Although the unit in the is generally known to be more reliable than the one fitted to its predecessor, there are some stories out there about Selespeed gearbox actuators and clutches needing to be replaced every k km.
The key to mostly trouble-free Alfa motoring lies in routine maintenance. Most Alfa problem stories only occur when owners skimp on routine preventative maintenance. Service jobs like the timing chain replacement should be done either on time or earlier, if possible. More importantly though, it is recommended to use only Alfa Romeo recommended serviceable parts, like engine oil.
Thus, a good independent mechanic is still a requirement when entering Alfa ownership. Plenty of independent specialists are out there who will look after your bella when it is down. Prepare to spend more though when bella goes under the knife though because with Alfa Romeo no longer in Malaysia, parts are scarce and inevitably more expensive. Many Alfistas get their parts for their either from Singapore or straight from Europe, with half cut s being a more popular reasonably priced solution for many Alfa shaped problems in recent years.
The most common on the market would be the 2. Prices of this particular model range from around RM 30k to RM 40k, depending on condition and history. Not too shabby for what is already at least a year-old car. Do note though as with only a small number officially imported by Sime Darby AutoConnexxion in , it took a long time for Alfa Romeo Malaysia to sell them off.
This means that even if you do see a model year , or , it is most likely made in but registered a year or two later when it eventually found a home. With the vehicle stationary and the engine running it is possible to engage 1st gear, 2nd gear or Reverse.
The control simply requires an input to engage the gears and then it returns to its central position. The lever control takes priority if simultaneous requests are made using both the steering wheel buttons and the lever.
