Bought my car last year with what was a newish battery at the time. Never owned a car before that needed to be hooked up to a maintainer and though running it once a week or so (avoiding salt roads) throughout winter would suffice. How wrong I was. In the depths of winter the had a tendency to...

Just drove the car for the first time in over a week after a couple of hundred miles in a couple of days. Battery had run down a bit so had it on trickle charge all morning. Started and set off ok, only once warmed up noticed it was a reluctant to rev beyond 2500 revs as if in limp mode. Parked...

I appreciate when Maserati designed the 4200, a cold winter morning in the UK probably wasn't at the forefront of the design brief. Just curious how much moisture is typical with these cars, as mine feels borderline sopping when air moisture is high/air temp cold when parked outside. I took it...

Without upgrading the head unit is it possible to do much in terms of audio upgrades on a 4200 and what could be done for say £1000? (including installation as I've no clue about this sort of stuff). At the moment its the original system with a Parrot bluetooth and what I believe are individual...

Morning all, Hopefully this is the appropriate thread, please advise it not. Just after a quick bit of advice to put my mind at ease. Had the car in for some work and MOT Wednesday/Thursday, consisting new thermostat, gearbox oil change and handbrake adjustment. By all accounts the thermostat...

When having the tracking done recently I noticed the reverse lights didn't engage when being reversed off the ramp. With the MOT on the horizon is this a common issue and how can I resolve it? Car hasn't been used a huge deal recently so I did wonder if it's a voltage issue, although the battery...

Just noticed my mirrors aren't adjusting when in reverse. Although not working is an improvement, as I find them infuriating, I'm still curious why they're not working? Since they last worked, car has been sat a couple of weeks and had a new windscreen, not sure if either of these would have an...

Just discovered some significant scrubbing on the inner nearside front tyre. Significant to the extent that a 50 mile drive took it from partially visible tread to no tread. Car tracks ok, tyre pressure ok, just about about to book a new tyre but wondering if an alignment would be sufficient in...

Just having my car detailed and it would seem the headlight hazing is on the inside of the lamp unit. Has anyone successfully separated the unit from the length and re-assembled without issue? If so how easy is the operation? Not received the car back yet but one side has buffed up better than...

I'm looking at getting a coolant flush done when my 4200 is booked in for an oil change next week. Although I'm more than capable of doing the job myself I have limited means to do anything underneath the car as my driveway is on a slope. Question is: When it comes to a coolant change would a...

Hello Everyone, I'm Russ from North Wales and I recently bought the Maserati 4200 registration: RK53FTN from @ravingfool and I believe formerly owned by @Matt82. I've owned the car just over a week now and in all very happy as it covered the 230 miles drive from London to home without issue...
