That merc looked awesome.

Having owned 6 Alfas and 2 RCZ's, both have similarities to the enthusiast. A 'sporting heart' , looks, and different from the pack. Funnily enough, I've found all 6 pretty reliable, and certainly no less reliable than anything else I've owned. The Mazda RX8 wins the award for my most...

All the other tourists were taking pics of Castles and stuff. I just took ones of the Stelvio. :P Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

Definately. Been trying to come with a different way you could have got out of the situation, and I'm stumped. I guess sometimes we just have to write things off to experience, remember the important things, and just get on with enjoying the life we have. Still searching for a new Alfa...

Sounds most unfortunate. Used WBAC in Barnsley when I got rid of my last Alfa before the Z. It was mint, but that didnt stop the bloke spending an hour trying to find any flaws. He gave up in the end, and I got the original online offered price. I suspect this happens rarely though.

Naked driving also helps. :eusa-whistle:

Reminds me of a 1980's Barnsley nightclub.

Will it go all saggy when it rains ?

Had my lukewarm aircon regassed today, and now back to ice cold again. Was a bit worried it was something more serious, but simply out of gas. £39 well spent.

I also had an RX8. Must admit, I found it more fun to drive than the RCZ being rear wheel drive. The extra 40 bhp and grin factor as the back end skipped out were a joy. That said, it was bordering on dangerous in the snow, and the bizarre flooding quirk was annoying.

Looks fairly straightforward. I reckon we could do ours on a Sunday afternoon if it doesn't rain for a couple of hours. :D

:D :thumbup:

I think AEK is also very experienced in this area. I asked a neighbour to help me pull mine in the end.

In the Uk we sometimes find that lubrication helps. I think the European spec Knobs pull easier due to the warmer climate.

Did you use any form of lubrication ?

Great video with unusual but effective 2 handed technique for knob pulling. He looks quite a young guy though, and not sure I could do it as quick as him. He also pulled a bit hard, and was lucky he didn't make a mess of his rooflining.

Any chance of a few more pics from a bit further back to get the full back end view ? That sounds wrong.

Difficult to fit ? What holds it on ?

Sensor warning has reset after a couple of hours. Great learning for me, not to keep topping up based on the electronic warning, and to use the dipstick (as bad as it is as) your best guide.
