what did you hae to fix?
The thing started steering like an ocean liner and one of the problems on them is Alfa in their wisdom did'nt use long enough bolts to bolt the steering rack to the subframe of the car so they work loose until finger tight and then the thing starts steering like a boat because of the play when the racks trying to come loose from the car.The fix is to get underneath with a 13mm ring spanner tighten the bolts back up and away you go....................onto the next fix.................pmsl.Which is my hotstarting problem due to substandard 20 year old wiring...............and the Alfa i've got is one of the best ones in existance and has only covered 30k from new.
