Quick And Reasonable Service Items?

[QP4Me]

Evening all,

Where is the best place to go (or posting in my case), for service items such as filters, plugs etc. I am looking for fast, reasonable, service.

I previously ordered from a well know supplier, but they ship on a slow boat's to China.

Thanks,

Pat,

Absolutely.

He's just checking water pump code:

"I have double checked the codes and it definitely lists 2 pumps, 1 for the 3200 and 1 for the 4200.
The first number (195433) I quoted you for was the 4200 pump, in my head they superseded, but then you pointed out that the number (ET 578045900) may be wrong and on double checking they are supposed to be different.
I will speak to someone tomorrow who may be able to confirm one way or the other on the pumps."



So is it 195433 or 578045900 for 3200 assetto corsa water pump?

What about clutch kit, it seems to be sachs built, have you code and idea of price please?

 

[conaero]

It will be the longer number, the short one is a Ferrari number which is used on the later 4200, also the water and oil pump on the 4200 is one combined unit and retails at about a grand plus vat. The 3200 one is about £300 from memory which is the correct one for the AC.

 

[chippiepilot]

the clutch is a sachs clutch, over £600 from eurospares, eurocarparts can supply it for around £600.
alfa: Alan at DL's is great ordered a part at about 4pm and it was with me next day - great service indeed

Ross answers "195433 is correct for your car, the other number 578045900 was made for the Quattroporte non evo and Shamal and is different, however it is possible to modify this to fit a 3200, that is why Eurospares claim it fits on a 3200."
