There’s not a ton of maintenance videos and I know dealers are getting scarce, this is a great team up to show people how to do work solo. Save themselves a decent amount of money. Appreciate you noticing the efforts 🙌🏽 a lot going into to planning useful content
Tristan came out and worked on my car. Very professional, very friendly, helped me understand my car better in terms of what to look out for. Thanks, Ricky, for always giving us great content and resources to make our Alfa ownership experience that much better. Most useful car channel ive been on.
Nice how to. A quick tip that I learned from Motoren Zimmer is to blow out the spark plug holes with compressed air, before taking out the plugs, to prevent debris from falling into the engine.
Don't forget to give yourself credit Geoffrey. You're probably one of the smartest individuals I've ever met and I enjoyed working with you. I appreciate the compliment 😎
Sometimes the oil level does not show up correctly for a few days, so do not put more than 5.5qt. I have just learned today on the Stelvio forum, that the MES should show the actual oil level, still need to find this feature in MES.
Gret video! Just a question about the filter. What's the difference between M0-339 and M0-090. It shows the M0-090 OEM filter online. Can I use either or. Tough to get M0-090 here in Canada.
Great video. I may need to head up your way to see if they can assist with installing SGW bypass. In my Giulia it is up so far & tight my fat fingers can’t manipulate it, think they would mind assisting? Keep up the wonderful content!
n the alfa was always my dream car, after watching the "6 underground" i knew I had to get it but once I noticed I couldn't turn off traction control unless i did the battery trick or got a quadrifoglio it just turned me off 😒 but W video this helped a lot
I know down the line you guys are gonna do a hybrid turbo install which is gonna be epic but what about a video on the transmission fluid & filter service👀
Great video! Is the $180 first time special include both oil/filter change & spark plug change? Thanks! ~Jackie (2020 Alfa Romeo Stelvio Ti Sport Q4) 😊🏁
Didn't look at all the comments so might have been mentioned but I know that carbon fuel canister thing is a known issue so maybe that. Great video though, thanks. Side note, I'm pretty sure Tristan has worked on my car when it had the oil filter issue last year
@@ModdedMotorspraying you see this comment too but could you guys do an in depth video of removing the ECU?? I’m trying to send it for the Squadra tune but no decent videos on removal process.
@@ModdedMotors yeah I did but I couldn’t really see where the other ones are that weren’t captured on film for that vid, I might just be dumb ofc!😂 but I’m a heavily visual learner if I don’t see it first, very difficult to do it right and understand fully. I guess I’ll rewatch till I can make me understand better rather than be selfish in asking you guys go through the trouble of doing a dedicated ECU removal video
The Giulia fuel filter is only serviceable through fuel pump replacement and is generally unnecessary for the life of this particular car. Additionally, There is no reported service life for it.
@@MichaelGarza-hd6nm yes they are. Left/right and Up/down. The up/down adjustment is behind the front wheel well on both sides. point it at a wall or garage door either right at dawn or dusk and adjust away.
Yall got me nervous!! Im at 76,000 miles I got the car used so I really need to change this now, or should I take it to Dealer because I’m over the 60,000?
We don't. All the techs I know are in Texas, and one moved up north somewhere. Did some business in Canada once but that was with parts 🤷. If you ever decide to come to Texas, we'd love to be of service to you!
So just did my spark plugs, got them from Advanced Auto. $17 something a piece. Not a very difficult job but i had a heck of atime with getting the clips off. Was trying to use a pick but he made it look a lot easier. Cylinders 1 and 2, the ones closest to windshield, i was able to get out without disconnecting the wires and there was enough slack in wires that they just pulled out. Everything but the clips went smoothly, but....i have always put a little anti sieze on plugs and after evrything is together and went for a test drive to make sure all is good, i see the NGK says to put them in dry and anti sieze may cause issues with threads and such. Now iam a little stressed out! Some people are saying on forum's, no big deal. Any input about this or what should i do? Take them out and get off what i can?
@@ModdedMotors been meaning to get back on here and comment. Talked to a few guys I trust with asking this question too. One guy, that has been working on car engines for decades, I asked him about putting anti-sieze on spark plugs? He said he dosent when he is working with aluminum heads. I said I pretty positive that's what the Alfa has. The others i spoke to said i should be just fine. He said you will be just fine. Most things I read were if you torqued then to spec, that spec is for when the plugs are dry and when you put them in "wet" they will turn more than they should and possibly strip threads and all that. I just did it by feel till they were snug so I should be OK. But yeah may be something to address one way or the other for the masses. Put a few hundred miles on it so far and don't feel anything weird at the moment so... Thanks for getting back
@@ModdedMotors would that fit a 2017 Alfa Romeo Giulia I’m at 7600 miles. I brought the car used so don’t know if they changed the spark plugs when I got it at 4500 miles
I'm a mechanic and even on my Giulia, that middel gray clip broke using the pick. It's cheap as f*ck. lol I had to zip tie it back on. Poor and cheap design at best. Also, which Autel scanner does the reset? I have an Autel scanner and it doesn't reset the oil change. I need a cheap way to reset the service as well.
We own the autel MS909. If you have an 18.5my or later, you'll have to either bypass the sgw or purchase auto auth (which I think is $60/yr) to be able to get in to do the oil reset procedure. If you're going to do this, be aware that you not only have to do the oil change reset procedure in the ecm, but also in the ipc (instrument panel cluster).
Great job guys! You are the best! Couldn’t see myself owning an Alfa without your videos. ❤
Appreciate you so much brother 🫶🏼 we wouldn’t have ours without the support of the community 🙌🏽
Wow... this is THE ultimate Alfa channel.
😭🫶🏼 Appreciate you brother
I'm excited to see more of the DIY videos! Thank you for all the effort you two put into helping the Alfa community 👏

Would love to see break pads replacement, love the videos and super excited for the new grill insert!
Yea I need to do mine
Appreciate the support 🙌🏽 yess we can do the breaks here soon!

Gotta love the DIYs 😅🙌🏽
How do you reset the oil life in the system
Didn't look at all the comments so might have been mentioned but I know that carbon fuel canister thing is a known issue so maybe that. Great video though, thanks.
Side note, I'm pretty sure Tristan has worked on my car when it had the oil filter issue last year
Yess carbon fuel canister is an easy one?
Triston has definitely worked on a ton of Alfas 😅😂
Great video thanks for the info
No problem 🙌🏽
This is amazing, just bought mine and love all the vids yall do! Can yall do a video on how to fix the seal on a headlight, mine just went out 😂
I can definitely attempt! Gotta find a damaged Headlight 😅
@@ModdedMotors yeah it’s a big ask🤣, just if yall happen to come across this issue, it’d be cool to see how to fix. Thanks, love the content
lol 😂 I got you, I’ll see what I can make happen!
I JUST bought spark plugs and was getting mad bc there’s ZERO videos showing how to do this for my car. Thank you.
Glad I could help 🙌🏽 I think a lot of us are passing that mark 😅

No danger but you should do them at some point 😅
Which model of Autel scanner do they use or does it not mater ?
Ms909 I believe
Where would you recommend buying the spark plugs from? I tried Rock Auto but they are out.
Please tell me they in Florida😢
Texas unfortunately
Great Video!! Do they have affiliations with Southern California people who work on Giulia's? My Ontario California Alfa dealer closed. Thank you!

have you gotten around to timing your 0-60?
Not fully but I have a device you might like to see next week. I’ll attempt some 0-60 soon
Where do you place the jack stands? The Giulia only has the 4 jack points and no official place to put jack stands.
Great question, I use ramps
@@ModdedMotors ahh ok awesome thanks!!
looking to get one of these alpha is this ti sports or is it a base model??
Mine is highly modified 😅 it’s a base but has everything a ti or more have.
Where did you get the plugs from?
Dealer , but they’re NGK ILZKR7G
Is there a recommended spark plug that you guys use? Iam at about 64k miles and need to do mine
Sorry! Supposed to put that in the bio, but NGK ILZKR7G
