    4200 Spyder ABS Diagnostics

    FWIW my X431 Pro Mini told me yesterday that I don’t have an ABS module in my 2002 Spyder. My subscription has expired so maybe I need an upgrade but I was a bit surprised. I agree it’s a good bit of kit otherwise, used it to adjust my PIS and some other stuff.

    Advice needed on replacing my GS stereo and speakers

    You’ll achieve that with an upgrade to the Focals, they make a huge difference. That said, you’ll probably notice a lot of rattles, resonance and booming if you push the volume up unless you do a lot of work with sound deadening etc. Even without that extra work, the upgrade is still well worth it.

    Funny or clever number plates

    [emoji106] Mine means something to me (and hopefully to anyone who reads Italian). It’s part of a line from a song I like.

    THE FUTURE vs THE PAST!!

    Even worse, EV use is mainly subsidised by those who can’t afford to buy one.

    2019 Ghibli Gransport Diesel ULEZ?

    Euro 6 is enough. The ‘emissions’ being 158g/km is a red herring as ULEZ compliance is not about carbon emissions but only about NOx and PM (particulates). For some reason, your car must be showing in the ULEZ database as not EURO6. It does happen. If you put your number plate in here you can...

    Sportsitalia…the end

    So sorry this has happened Matt. You are a very decent guy. I hope that in time you can come back with something even better.

    GS ULEZ emissions

    I believe that at least 2 would be valid, depending on which catalytic converter configuration the car has.

    GS ULEZ emissions

    You probably know this, but just for clarity the MOT doesn’t measure NOx. It seems hard to get an actual measurement of your car unless I am missing something.

    Dont upgrade your rear view mirror QP5

    When I select Reverse, a green light illuminates on mine. No other indication that it’s working apart from the dimming.

    The future!!!

    I think MrMicks’ point is that most of the important risks were a lot harder to check than that and would have caused a lot more damage if the faults weren’t found in advance. A lot of money was wasted on pointless work like your friend’s, which would have proved very little about the PC, but...

    Dont upgrade your rear view mirror QP5

    My 2002 Spyder has a dimming mirror courtesy of pre-purchase rectification work I specified from the dealer that I bought it from 7 years ago. The original was cracked and they told me this was the Maserati specified replacement, which I was quite happy about. Out of interest, how did you...

    Audio Upgrades

    Yes, I think that’s all it is. But if you don’t get it right you can end up with high frequency distortion, on the edge of the audible range (at least to my old ears). It can make listening to music quite a strain, quite uncomfortable in my case.

    Audio Upgrades

    As Julian says, there are plenty of replacement speakers that will fit. I would look at the Focal range as well. The front speakers have a separate tweeter near the top of the door. You need to decide whether to replace the tweeter as well, with an appropriate change to the crossover...
