Stelvio Owner from Europe similar spec, same engine, it's great to see content coming from the US, keep up with it! This is a highly underrated car, mostly because we've been brainwashed by German marketing for decades... I've been on the forums since this car came out and they are pretty much bullet proof. Most issues come from battery voltages, earlier models had some water infiltration that caused electric failures (fixed via recall in 2018). Mine required an oil top up after a series of strong pulls to 140mph. If needed, ensure you use the proper spec oil, always the same (oil is very important for this car) A few advices: - Don't touch the suspensions, Ferrari engineers have tuned them, it will be easy to fuck them up. - Get a 95ah AGM battery (most issues come with older, lower specs batteries - the car is sensitive to voltages - Get a 2020 Steering wheel, they are much better quality (the leather) and refreshes the car a lot (you can do the same for the gear knob, plug and play) - Get 20 inch wheels, they improve handling without sacrificing comfort too much (I recommend the forged Quadrifoglio wheels, they are lighter, strong and look amazing) - Change oil every 6k miles, this is the trick that will make sure your Multiair never dies (along with not pushing with a cold engine!) - You desperately need a new exhaust! I'm sure it's on the way... I've put a street legal Italian made Ragazzon on mine and it doesn't sound like a washing machine anymore - ZFs are reliable and Alfa (as well as other brands) don't train/equip their dealers to maintain it. Oil changes are required every roughly 50-60k miles, preventing wear and rough gear changes By the way, the platform is called "Giorgio" (italian for George), not Gregorio :D The Stelvio is more exclusive than the Tonale, which is an evolution of the Jeep Compass. The Stelvio is an evolution of the Giulia Quadrifoglio, which was the first model of the series (unlike some German brands, the Quadrifoglio version is not a tuned up base Stelvio, instead the base models are de-tuned Quadrifoglio versions. If you want to de-activate traction control, just disconnect the battery for a few seconds, the first re-start is without electronic controls Hey I know this car pretty well, feel free to ask for some advice! Cheers
Love how you say the Stelvio is at the perfect height, yet you might have some lowering springs for it lol I have seen a lowered Stelvio and damnnnn it looked goood! 👍👍
can't agreed more, I own Stelvio and a Cayenne but this Alfa offer the best driving pleasure than the German car, they are in another class, DON'T trust the press but take a ride we all know the Stelvio is miles better.
The 5 holes look soo good bro on the Stelvio! Glad your out there enjoying a family vacation. I agree with you that it should have had a different wheel at least some what different. I need a drone bro B roll
We have talked and you know I really want to get a Stelvio as well to go with our Giulia too. I love the look of the Stelvio and with everyone saying it doesn't drive like a SUV but feels like the Giulia is why I want one.
Try the veloce seats before, I'm pretty thin and found the side bolsters excessively intrusive (uncomfortable even at the widest open position)@@ModdedMotors
Hey guys, you should know I love your videos and everything you do…but I have to correct one little thing….😊 it is the “Giorgio Platform” (pronounced George-E-O)… Please don’t think I am being a d*ckhead or anything, just wanted to make you aware! Keep up the great work!!!
I have been looking for months to see what I want to replace my jeep Cherokee with. I’ve had a Durango and was thinking of getting another one. The sporty SUV area is so hard to find. Do you do any of your own maintenance?
I think this will be a nice change especially moving into the “sport” category. I do my own maintenance on certain thing, some things I take to the dealer. Pretty easy overall to work on
you'll be surprised how well it will handle soft offroad, check the comparison with the Macan on rollers... the only issue is the stiffness of the suspensions, doesn't allow much wheel travel@@ModdedMotors
it must suck when your wife wants to be in the videos ... but doesnt really add anything .... but when you're married you have to do what you have to do
Man you don’t comment anything positive and you’ll be block from the channel. I just want to make sure you see this response. These are real people you’re commenting to; and we see your responses. Instead of spreading negativity try be positive, especially since you’ve taken the time to watch a few of our videos. Krystal is the reason there’s even a RUclips channel, and she could care less to be in the video. I have no idea what would make you think this was a “funny” or “helpful” comment but I hope you find some peace in your life.
100% apology !! The channel is fanstic, one of my favorite as a stelvio owner. Working with a partner I'm sure can be very rewarding. and fun. I guess I was refering to my experience of keeping work and personal seperated. But I'm sure its great for those that can make it work. For alpha owners this is the best channel anywhere ! @@ModdedMotors

Considering purchasing a 2022 Ti, your input is very detailed and informative. Thank you
I own a ram pro master city with multi air engine with no issues, 60k miles. Is this Stelvio similar as the multiair except with turbo?
@@rudyperales3936 is stronger on Stelvio, closed deck block vs open deck on your car
Love how you say the Stelvio is at the perfect height, yet you might have some lowering springs for it lol I have seen a lowered Stelvio and damnnnn it looked goood! 👍👍
😂😂😂 I can’t help myself! I just want it to be lowered for the cool factor 😂😂😂 lmfao I think it would look soooo good dropped 2”
@@ModdedMotors Do it up man, you won’t regret it!! It will look Stellar! 😍😍
Convincing me 😅
You will most likely end up screwing up the suspension setup... if you ever decide to drop it, keep it to 1 inch max@@ModdedMotors
The STELVIO is STELLAR & STUPENDOUS !!
Thanks for helping solidify my decision to buy one soon !! 👍
I’m glad this video brought you value! Almost didn’t post it 🙌🏽 hope you join the club soon!
@@ModdedMotorsI'm looking into a 2019 stevlio that costs 24708 with a little more than 66000 miles, do you think its worth the pruchase
The Stelvio handles better than any other SUV. Even the Macan and especially with cost taken into consideration.
can't agreed more, I own Stelvio and a Cayenne but this Alfa offer the best driving pleasure than the German car, they are in another class, DON'T trust the press but take a ride we all know the Stelvio is miles better.
Totally agree!
I agree, I've driven my brother's Macan and I own an Alfa Romeo stelvio ti sport, wow really impressive 👏
easily explained, the Macan weighs 150kg more@@jhonnypina9463
You guys are the best! Thank you for saying that you were a regular car guy.
Thank you so much! Means a lot when we get positive comments
Looking forward to the giulia vs stelvio video. I’m a proud owner of a 2019 giulia I purchased in 2021, 32k miles and she’s flawless!! Viva Alfa!!
It’s definitely a great comparison between the two! Viva Alfa 🇮🇹!
The 5 holes look soo good bro on the Stelvio! Glad your out there enjoying a family vacation. I agree with you that it should have had a different wheel at least some what different. I need a drone bro B roll
Thanks bro! Much needed vacation 😅

You won’t regret it, definitely a nice edition to the Giulia!
I spend half the year in Broken Bow, missed y'all by two weeks!
No way! Oh man it was absolutely stunning there!
The throttle response plug=in tune is a must for these cars. I use the one from madness autoworks it's awsome
Same here! The one I have is madness first throttle control
Like your work. Keep it up. I must say I prefer the Veloce seat over the standard onee
Thank you so much! Oh yes the veloce seats are much better! Hopefully I can find sparcos for this one

Love watching your videos! :)
Thank you so much 🙌🏽 means a lot to us

Thank you! I never knew how to say it 😅never would think you were being a sick! Appreciate the correction
@@ModdedMotors lol, no worries… I knew you guys would be cool or otherwise I wouldn’t have said anything. 🙂
Hope you all had a great vacation!!
What’s funny is off camera I told Krystal “I hope I’m saying this right; or ima look dumb” 😂😂
Hello! Where did you guys get those OG 5 hole wheels? Would love to stock a set for myself :)
Proof I watched!! lol Fun content guys....
🫶🏼
The throttle response on my 2022 Stelvio in D mode is extremely sensitive.
Everyone definitely has a different preference
Stelvio is simply great. 🎉
I totally agree!
I you could only have one as a daily with tasteful mods, which one would you pick and why.
Stelvio or Giulia ?
Man such a hard question… for now I’d still pick the Giulia tbh
Its an Alfa world! 😂 Kool vid.
Everything Alfa 😅 thanks boss 🙌🏽
Very lucky 🍀
Thank you!

Vacuum
Lmfao 🤣 I know, I was on a road trip though. Alfa has been since washed lol
@@ModdedMotors funny 😁
Makes me wish I went Stevio instead of Giulia,2019 Ti sport
Why?
@user-io4sr7vg1v new grand babies. Its an adjustment moving from S60 to a real sports car.... added FM FX exhaust. New 275/30R19 rears
Definitely enjoy the Stelvio, the Giulia is still a phenomenal car
Great Car❤❤
Thank you!
Its an Alfa World ❤️👍🏻👍🏻
Yess it is !
Would love to see if this thing can go off road
Next video idea 😅
you'll be surprised how well it will handle soft offroad, check the comparison with the Macan on rollers... the only issue is the stiffness of the suspensions, doesn't allow much wheel travel@@ModdedMotors
Are you going to wrap it?
Yes sir, have to finish adding a few more pieces, and we’ll be wrapping it
@@ModdedMotors looking forward to seeing that!
it must suck when your wife wants to be in the videos ... but doesnt really add anything .... but when you're married you have to do what you have to do
