NeilB Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 Hi there, There is a buying guide here for all the common faults that can be found with the GTV - http://www.alfaowner.com/Forum/showthread.php?t=23905 Running temp should be about 90-ish in town, 70-85 on a run. Alfa radiators and thermostats are prone to wearing out pretty quickly. If it is taking ages to warm up when you keep moving (even in town) then it is quite likely that the thermostat is stuck in the open position.

egg1980 Posted January 16, 2007 Report Share Posted January 16, 2007 yeah, mine is a nightmare, I've had the oxygen sensor replaced but it's only helped a little bit, I doesn't idle well when it's cold at all, really annoying! I know it sounds stupid, but how on earth do you change the wiper blades on the sods??? You can't lift up the arm even with the bonnet open. Mine is a 1999 model btw.
