    Oh no, airbag warning light!

    It will need the SD2 to resort the light. I think that theres an Alfa Part thats the same but the switch isn't that expensive anyway from Maserati Make sure you clean up the contacts in the plug as these are know to cause problems Lee

    4200 strange noise - maybe suspension?

    Hi Had a similar noise to this a while back try checking the front bottom shock absorber bushes & also the front bottom ball joints. This is quite easy if you jack the front wheel of the floor you will be able to feel lift in the wheel if you lever it up or just grab the wheel at each side &...

    Strange Exhaust Noise

    Catman you are correct I've taken primary and secondary out of one side only, had emission checked by the friendly garage that carried out the MOT a couple of months ago. They checked both sides of exhaust & readings on the machine showed it would still pass the Mot! They are obviously higher...

    Strange Exhaust Noise

    If it is the centre box thats blowing then it will be coming off for an x pipe. I'm more worried that it's one of the cat's thats disintegrating. Just seems strange it's only on overrun. Lee

    4200 a bit fluffy when pulling away

    Are you using the sport button? You could see about having the PIS setting checked as this will give this sort of effect if its too high

    Quick Silver Back Boxes

    Hi They are quite a lot louder than the originals. I fitted them a couple of weeks ago having bought them second hand & have done around 300miles with them on. To be honest I prefer to be able to have a conversation in the car without having to raise my voice & as I have the kids in the...

    lowering a 4200

    Hi Been reading this with interest & am looking to lower the car by around 10-15mm. I have measured the gaps between the centre of the wheel & the underside of the arches all round the car & they differ from side to side by as much as 10mm (fuel tank on reserve & no driver). I decided...
