Decent cars I agree that the suspension is sensitive on the 147/GT/156. I’ve got a Q2 Sport 1.9 which I paid £1000 for. Spent double that keeping it going but worth it!
Same things on Spain !!! i did the grandmas trick putting a little screwdriver located exactcly where i found the light error on my 1000 euro 147 🔥and solved It
I also own an Alfa 147 1.6 105 hp twin spark 5 doors from 11/2007 used in 2016 with 121000km..it is fitted with an Emer LPG system and I must say that after the usual maintenance costs are removed, it's fine. Now I have 180500km I have replaced the spark plugs with 8 platinum from Champion coils and spark plug cables again because every now and then the engine failure warning light would come on .. at about 200,000 I will redo the distribution better to do it every 60000km or 5 years is a bit delicate .. A greeting from 'Italy👍
@@arcgarage Yes, I agree, it's a great car, I have had several Alfa Romeo in the past .. my grandfather the Giulia 1.3 and as a child I was always sitting in the driver's seat fantasizing .. my father Alfa 33 1.5 4x4, I had also a 146 1.4 twin spark and now the 147 that I take particular care of .. the engine should have no problem exceeding 400000km ...😉👍
Well i bought 147 2006 restyling with new paint job, it just look amazing for only 1700. Well it turned out i had to rebuild gearbox bearings, there was also 470€ worth of work on the engine bay ( pullyes from alternator and a lot of other stuff ). And about a month ago i also found a rot in the sill. Luckily it just seems to be on the one sill. I just hope that there will be no more rot on other places. I don't know what to do now, should i fix that rot since i fixed a ton of stuff and it is in pretty good shape now or just sell it :/
Hello mate, what is the name of the software you use and how can I get it? I have a somewhat troublesome Selespeed that is making my local mechanics quite rich off me , hehe
Hi, for Alfa I use mostly MultiEcuScan, I did a review on it, it will definitely help you and you get a lot with it for 100E(50 for software and 50 for cables)
Believe it or not, this one doesn't take a drop, this car has been well taken care of all its life... It is a perfect example of how important regular service is
before 2002 didn't burned oil, but it's not a rule, I read that they changed during a period of years the valve rings, therefore some engine codes that even alfanics don't get it. Do u still drive it?
Vozim alfu 166, otišao varijator, da li će biti neki video o tom problemu, nov je skup ko otrov, da li da ga repariram ili se kockam sa polovnim? Inače radiš odlične videe, pomažu mnogo, samo tako nastavi. P.S. drugar sada juri 147 ili 156 za kupovinu, kada bi iskopali ovako dobru kao što je tvoja bila bi premija, 140.000 km, divota.
Ukoliko ti je Alfa u dobrom stanju najbolje je uzeti nov. Sa repariranim nemam bas iskustva ali polovan nebi uzimao. Nove sam uzimao za nekih 250E. Uglavnom planiramo neki video i o tom problemu u skorijoj buducnosti... Sa ovom 147icom sam prezadovoljan...
@@arcgarageHvala ti na odgovoru, stvarno lep gest, a što se moje alfe tiče malo je zapuštena ali motor, kvačilo i menjač su odlilčni, ostalo krećem da sređujem kad završim biće ko bombona :-) Možeš moj varitor da središ i da snimiš...hahahah Veliki pozdrav.
Pozdrav drug, planiram o kupovini Alfe 147 ili 156.. Sad hocu u Srbiji da izdvojim oko 2100e pa koja se nadje u boljem stanju. Hocu tvoje iskreno misljenje, neki mi pricaju da nema sanse da je nadjem ocuvanu za te pare, da su krsevi za te pare. Ako moze i savet izmedju benzinca ili dizela. Ako je benzinac 1.6ts i 1.8ts svakako razmisljam o ugradnji plina tacnije TNG uredjaja. Nadam se da mi mozes pomoci, sve najbolje 💪👍
Mislim da se moze naci i za te pare u solidnom stanju. Moja preporuka ti je benzinac, ali gledaj da uzmes od nekog ko je odrzavao auto. Sto se motora tice, po meni ti je najbolji 1.6ts 77kw, nema variator, koji zna sa vremenom otici. Sto se dizela tice 1.9 je super motor, ali opet imas EGR, swirl flaps, turbo, plivajuci zamajac, itd. koje ces na autu za te pare definitivno morati raditi, bar nesto od toga

I got one 147 before 2 years for 800 euros and until now the only stock is the suspensions and the inside of the engine. The whole project until now is 3300 euros with program new brakes racing exaust etc etc. Very reliable until 208k kilometers. Check my Chanel
ARC Garage i just bought one and there’s some issues such as sun roof not opening, Bose speakers only working on one side, windscreen wiper control not working. Does it sound expensive to fix?
I've got the restyling version of this model with the same engine and the same alloy wheels. It has its issues but I'm in love with it.
Me too, it is a great little car...
Wow! This will be a interesting 147 project to follow! I need to learn more about how to use diagnostics on my GT.
I think it will, diagnostics seem to be increasingly more important, as more computers are implemented...

I just bought one of these off a mate too, for about 800 Euro. Mine's a 2ltr though
Congrats. Great car, I am more than happy with mine... With 2 liter engine it should fly...

If you got that far, it might not be a bad idea to fix it...

nice vid. but how much oil does that twin spark drinks? 1L per 1000km?

Hey, I realy like your tutorials on the 147! I have a questiom: do you know how to remove the exact same shift knob (the same as in the video)?
Thanks. In my case you pull it up...
Pozdrav, koji program za dijagnostiku koristite?
Ova diagnostika sa videa je Autel MK908, a za Alfu je najbolji MultiEcuScan...
