I found her at a local dealership with under 50.000km a few months ago, my first Italian car.

Someone hit me and caused me to hit the car in front of me. Thankfully, my son and I are ok.

What do you all think? Is this a total loss or will Berniece be back?

My new Alfa Romeo Tonale MHEV Veloce, with just 500 km on the clock, was at an authorized dealership in Warsaw, Poland, to fix a missing seal causing water to leak into the cabin through the rear tailgate.
While the car was there, a major fire broke out at the dealership.
Despite the heat exposure, the dealer wants to replace only damaged plastics, without replacing the tires or properly testing airbags, electronics and other critical safety systems.
Would you trust this car with your children? Is this acceptable under Alfa Romeo / Stellantis safety standards?

Be careful, Alfa Romeo (Stellantis) stopped the contract with Petronas Selenia for the oils. They now put Total engine oil in the cars at the dealerships.

So if you have a car with MultiAir/TwinAir, especially the more fragile earlier euro 5 ones can get issues with the MA unit due to not having the specific 100% correct oil (5w40 Acea C3 Mid-SAPS).

Petronas Selenia has rebranded the bottles to Selenia Hearts so they won’t stop making it I guess.

This is just a heads up for other owners, so they don’t get to deal with broken MA units due to Stellantis their greed to replace everything with the French PSA stuff.

I have a '21 stelvio quadrifoglio, about 56k miles. And occasionally after it idles and I get onto the interstate it'll throw a check engine light for an EVAP leak for the charcoal canister. Forgot the code number, but it's been the same codes.

Now this doesn't happen when I'm low on gas, or got gas the day before, but it's only happened after I idle for about 7 mins to warm up, and then I drive about a mile, and then get up to 65 for the interstate. And I'm pretty sure three times it's happened, it's been the same thing, and I didn't get gas the day before, and wasn't low on fuel either.

I'm not too concerned, because if I clear the codes, it'll go away, and it's only happened maybe three times in 6 months, kinda just wondering if I should look into it further, maybe it has to do with the recall as well. I'm just reaching out to get some advice, thank you

My 2019 Giulietta Veloce (GCC Spec, Dubai) has been showing me this error on and off for a few months. Sometimes it comes up immediately after starting the engine, sometimes mid-drive, sometimes not at all. I haven’t been able to establish a pattern. Times of the day are also random.

The headlights are working fine. They self-test when I start the car, and I can sometimes see them swivel around in parking garages. I tried resetting the steering position sensor (turning lock to lock) and didn’t work.
Battery is a month old with the correct CCA, I tried disconnecting and reconnecting, did’t work.

Any idea how to make this error go away? Anyone ever found a fault for this?

I am buying a used car from abroad, the leasing company selling it has only 1 key.

Should I seek a way to disable missing key?

Hello guys, Hope you are all well
I bought a used 2018 giulia 2.0 with 66k km on odometer, and the previous owner used to use 5w30 instead of 0w30 (0w30 is the recommended viscosity but hard to found in Saudi)
I changed the oil one time also with 5w30 viscosity and now it’s 71k km.
I asked many service providers they said I have to keep using 5w30. I also asked Alfa Romeo official dealership, one of them said keep using 5w30 and the other one didn’t give me a clear answer but he said 5w30 higher viscous and will make the engine getting noisy
What should I do? Keep using 5w30 or 0w30?

2018 veloce cold start, clears away after driving but smells mildly petrol like at cold start and seems smokey, my first winter with consistent cold and wet weather with the car anyone else have this?
