Hello you guys, I really need your help from someone who knows about this kind of car guuuut 😉 I drive my Spider 939 now for 8 years and this car costs me the last nerve. There was not a single year with this car without problems! Currently I have the following problem: My engine light went on and off, on and off, on and off…. However, the car drove perfectly. Then he went after a few days into the “emergency mode” and I brought it to the workshop. This time to the workshop of my trust and not to Alfa, because I have only made bad experiences so far. After reading the error, the error should probably be back at the control chain again. I had already had this again at almost 30,000 km koplett. Today I had to go to… the car went out of the tacho. To make it short, the sensor has been exchanged for the 3rd time now. After that I was able to drive again about 1 week and now the engine light is again to drive again. Today I already had the Gau…. the car went out! I did not find this problem again, but I did not know this problem again in the last time. I remember.

Good morning Together, I would like to treat myself to a little flicker for the daily way to work. The way is 85 KM easy distance, so 170 km a day on 4 days a week. Planned and looked at so far the Spider from Bj 2000 with the 2,0 TS. I was very nice to drive. There would be another gas conversion planned. Now the question, how it is ordered about the long-distance suitability of the vehicle ? Are there experience values here or are the daily long-distance nothing for the Alfa engine ? For tips I would be grateful

Hello together Since my childhood I’ve been fascinated by the GTV. It’s just such a beautiful work of art from passion that I want to finally realize myself. As imperfect as it is, it’s also perfect. It’s definitely supposed to be a v6. Only there are 2 variants… 3.0 and 3.2 Which of the two is to be recommended? The one older and weaker, the other refined and stronger. However, what about the robustness of the respective engines and maintenance/replacement costs? And what is to be paid attention to except the typical, like complete service booklet, guarantee,… It will always be only a 2nd car, or max. 10tkm a year (time to Italy and couple of fun routes) Please ask for your tips and help gruß Bostal

Hello dear Alfistis I will sell the next my C-Class and since I want to change completely to Alfa it would interest me like such a GTV is? I have a 155 in the garage with 140000Km which runs like a clockwork but nn GTV is nevertheless another car. How stable is this car? So I am not the driver of the nice handling with his car, he very brutal. My Benz and 155 have held on to this so far. Would now like to know if a GTV is worth it for me. Because I really don’t have to pay 500€ or 1000€ werkstat every month. So if GTV the big machine then please write your experience and opinion pure. MFG The Hakan

Hello all, the cover of my Spider (bj. 86) is still original. Unfortunately, it is now so slowly tearing out on one or other outer edge. Also a crack between the rear window and the cover material has formed. Has someone changed the cover with his Alfa before ? can you make that yourself ? where do I get a cover ? what do you do with it when you change the cover ? (screws …) Thank you very much for your help and many greetings Jörg

Original 76,000 km 05/1997 EZ 141 kW (192 hp) Good condition, timing belt new, accident-free, only small scratches, tires good. I read here that the 8V has a higher maintenance effort, but what basically speaks against such a vehicle? It is black with red leather equipment and should cost according to offer 4590,- Euro. What should I pay special attention to during the visit? What should I ask the owner absolutely? I would make use of my check booklet at the KM number, since it is a proof for the KM stand, but otherwise?

Hello so I have a problem with my Alfa Romeo Gtv The following error messages Diagnosis: P0340- Cylinder Indentification Sensor P0220- Gas Slider Potentiometer So the Alfa is jerking in the stand gas and I can’t give more than 3000 rpm gas. many thanks in advance for your help Friendly greetings Faton

Hello dear Alfa driver, have seen at a dealer a GTV 3.0 with 220hp, beautiful, with 4 tube Ragazzon exhaust, leather 108tkm, very well maintained and maintained. Timing belts have already been made. The car is supposed to cost just 650€, which is very cheap for this performance. It is Built 99 and 2nd hand But somehow everyone advises me from Alfa, all say, shit, fingers off, there are always the engines broken and and and, but of the people does not have an Alfa, everyone has heard this only once somewhere:-) On the net it says that the 3.0 should be very robust and good, what is important because I drive 2000KM a month. Is it true that the car is really very maintenance-intensive and that when something comes up, it is very expensive? Does it come from that the car is so cheap??? The money is not the problem, just doesn’t want to invest hundreds of euros in any defects every month. How is the feeling in this car?

Hello have an alfa romeo gtv 2.0 16v bj 99 now my problem. Have already searched all through and tried out come no further so my cooler jumps not on when I put on the relay mass runs the cooler when I turn on the air conditioner he actually should run but does not. the relay in the safety box is completely switched off even when you plug it in clicks the and fan goes on but immediately off again and then never on again … I slowly don’t know further say here all you have a temperature sensor sitting on the cooler I don’t have one in the cooler I see only the sensor in the thermostat seat with 3 cables that gets over the signal or from where the signal knows slowly no more hope you can help me how to measure the standing again by going through 2 cables and on the back side is 0-23 ohm but don’t know how I can measure when I come to zero (((( second problem the airbag lamp is on white but why the seat is not under the cable but where the cable is located but where the cable is located is located but where the cable is located

Hello Alfa friends I have bought an Alfa Gtv V6 TB. 2liters Bj.11/95 from first hand, check booklet and complete,I even documented the invoice of the new purchase. So everything was always done with the dealer, where the car was bought also. Ohso, the car has now 125,000 down. the 120s inspection was of course also made first. new exhaust is also on it from trouser tube (including cat), it is also accident-free, now my questions come, hope for many answers. So, how stable is the engine? Turbo? Who can tell me what it costs at Alfa the valve?(All 20,000km) What is the cost of the small service (Oel change) I have the receipts, but there is always only service from the 10,000s to the 120,000s,and what it cost total, mostly tires were there and various other things. So I would like to know what only the oil service costs, and the valve adjustment.
