Is it 12 or 13?

Can I check I have got this right...is the bearing SKF GE15C a direct replacement that fits the original Maserati control arm?

You don't have to replace the whole lower suspension arm anymore when the ball joint wears because you can buy one of these from https://www.autoepoca.it/brands/maserati-parts/suspension-maserati/ Cost 150 Euro....

Alas..my delight at having cured the problem was short-lived - its now reverted to blowing cold again and no amount tweaking the connector restores heat. So its back to the error codes. I'm getting AA 44 84 55 44 = Type = "AC or DC": Description = "AC or DC towards battery +": Cause =...

Whilst fixing my heater problems I removed the grey plastic moulding that sits at the bottom of the windscreen - it was badly faded and looked pretty awful. So before putting everything back together I did a search on how I might get some colour back and came across this hack...I tried it and it...

Thanks guys...where would we be without the internet and Forums like this when one needs a vital bit of info! Maserati ownership would surely prove to be somewhat more expensive...

SUCCESS....actuator was on driver's side - I disconnected and reconnected it and hey presto...there is heat... Thanks everybody...

Thanks for everyone's help so far.... I think I have narrowed it down to one or both of these...the ambient air temp on the dash shows "E" when I turn the ignition on, but then when I start the engine it shows correct temperature. I have carried out the HVAC reset procedure by pressing the...

Thanks...that's a must do even if it doesn't fix anything. Other than being red, what coolant would you recommend ?

Thanks for the helpful steer - I was puzzled by not being able to find a control valve in the diagrams.

Oh I do so hope this is not the case...and lovellracing is right and that one way or another I can get to the flaps/sensor without taking half the car apart!

I did look at this excellent post and studied photos, but couldn't see anything that looked like a control valve

No coolant hasn't been changed for quite some time...that could be the reason for the fault...

Yes, that's what I'm thinking...but do you know where it is?

Thanks...a good point for others who might read this post in the future....but definitely not bypassed, I've owned this car 13 years and there was a time when it did work...

All the HVAC controls appear to be working...all temperature changes show on the centre screen, the vent/demist all switch and work OK, but only cold air ever comes out of the vents. Car has only been used during summer months for several years now so I can't say how long the ventilation system...

"...the lighting control unit has failed..." My lights failed recently - took a while to trace, but turned out to be the bottom of the ashtray shorting on the bodywork. Check the 5A fuse number 28 - the lighting control unit is on that circuit.

One more thought - £4k new, and upwards £1k used is simply daylight robbery and approx 10x what it should cost even allowing for a Maserati premium. The hydraulics on a Spyder seem to be mostly assembled from generic parts used throughout the motor industry. There are convertible roof...

Here are a couple of pictures of an Astra pump - it has fewer of those vertical cylinders which I assume are electronically activated valves, but apart from that it is similar to that fitted to a Spyder. The valves themselves, the layout and configuration is all the same as was the pipework. The...
