Evening gents Last week the drivers side wiper stopped working - just as it was raining! I popped it to a friendly indie who popped the link arm back on. It looked like it had simply slipped off. This week the same fault happened again. So I know I need to replace the link arm (not sure...

My spare key has stopped working and I need the battery replacing. Does anyone on the forum change the batteries?? Thank you Mark

After 3 very happy years of owning a 4200 - I've now got a larger family (2 wee boys) and I'm in the early stages of considering a bigger car. I love Masserati and don't think I could look at another marque. Whats everyone's thoughts on the virtues of both?? I love the speed, looks and head...

Evening all I've just driven my 4200 from Newcastle to Manchester - a lovely smooth (if not wet) drive. When I arrived in Manchester I hit bad traffic causing me to slow. I then noticed the red oil can light flash on the dashboard. I then noticed that the oil gauge was reacting directly to...

Good morning everyone This last few days I've has issues starting my 4200. When I get in and turn the key the engine turns over and sounds great - it just won't fire up! In order to get it started I've had to turn the power off next to the battery, lock and then unlock re car and then try...

Looking for a spot of help please.... my 4200 has somehow managed to loose all light to the speedo! The rest of the cockpit remains lit (well apart from the front interior light!) and the lights on the front of the car still work. But for some reason I have no idea what speed I'm doing at...

Morning all Ive noticed this morning a tick tick tick noise coming from under the bonnet. I also thought there was a slight squeal as I pulled away. Its possible the squeal was brake related. Any ideas as to what the ticking is? I'm sure I've heard it mentioned on this forum before. There...

Afternoon guys 4200 (Manual 2004) went in for it's MOT today and failed - **** :angry::worried1: Apparently its failed on (costs in brackets): Break Pipes (£20 plus 3 1/2 hours labour) Wiper blades (£15 each) Rear brakes - hand brake efficiency - discs are rusted and corroded (Discs...

I've looked into this before and been advised I need to buy the entire ashtray just to get the shiny Maserati badge back! (it snapped off before I bought the car). Does anyone have one for sale or seen them anyway for sale? Thanks Mark

This is an issue I've ran with for a while - it's going in for a service soon but I thought I'd canvass opinion first. When I steer, slowly to the right or left, I can hear a whirring noise that appears to be coming from the back. The noise does not appear when driving in a straight line. It...

Another electrical question and one I'm sure I've read about before but I couldn't find the answer! My front passenger seat refuses to return to it's original position after someone gets in the back. I have to manually press the button to shuffle the seat back. Then when someone gets in the...

Afternoon all Been a while since I've posted - apologies for my absence! Given the volume of snow my 4200 had been grounded on the drive and my wifes quattro A3 has been called into full service! I've not wanted to drive the Massa incase I get stuck. Had anyone bought Snow Socks? If so...

I have not used my car since Friday - but when Ive gone to use it today there is an issue with the central locking. When I lock the car it simply re opens itself! I thought I had locked it but when I was walking away the alarm went off. Has it simply got itself out of synch and if so - how do...

I seem to be having one of those days!! How do you remove the centre wheel caps (with the trident on) without removing the wheels??? Very carefully with a flat blade screw driver??? I have 2 to put on and really don't want to remove the wheels as I've got the new chrome bolts on! Mark

My engine looks pretty clean (4200) but I want to give it a wee spring clean what should I use on the plastics coverings and also on the red of the engine??? I will just use normal paint cleaners/polish on the body work within the engine bay, but would love some tips to ensure the power plant...

For some reason - one of my wiper arms is badly faded - you can see the grey metal beneath it. I've been advised to simply take them off - rub them down, get an aerosol and re spray. Allow to dry and do a few coats. What do you think??? Is it easy to remove the wiper arms? Seems a...

Apologies if this should be on another thread... I bought my 4200 nearly one year ago and have done about 5000 miles in that year. It's coming up to MOT time and the annual service. When I bought the car the servicing record states: 43,500 mile service done on 11th May 2009 (actual mileage was...
