First start in 19 years - abandoned Alfa Romeo 75
Переглядів 42 тис.5 місяців тому
In this video, we follow the journey of a neglected Alfa Romeo 75 that has been sitting in a barn for 18 years. I bought the car last year and brought it to yard. After some tinkering and troubleshooting, the moment of truth arrives I attempt to start the engine. With a few cranks and some patience, the Alfa Romeo 75 roars back to life after nearly two decades of silence.

      10 = 0 Just google P0340 as shown in video… The description of the P0340 fault code will point you in to the direction of the problem. A defective camshaft position sensor can cause this fault. Defective wiring or corrosion on the connectors of the sensors can be responsible for this fault as well.

      ​@@garagedilettante1128 Speaking with a Fiat manager, years ago, I asked "why the Multipla?" and he said: "When we noticed it was so ugly it was too late to stop the project and it was less expensive to continue it and try to sell it like a weird car". Anyway everything that exits the standard taste remains in history. Multipla was used in a wonderfull Sci-Fi British movie (Children of man - 2006) and it works. It is a wonderful car inside, the only problem is when you park it, get out of the car and see it.

    My 2012 RVR (outlander in Canada) is rusting from the inside out. It lives in a garage, no salt on roads, very low mileage. They kept pushing off the repair until they could say it's no longer under warranty. They had a recall to spray the undercarriage for rush protection but say it's unrelated to the paint issue (!!??).
