    One thing I forgot to mention is that you don't want to follow 30K oil replacement interval, replace it every 10K at the most.

    Giulietta has always been my dream car, and I can call myself a proud owner, but I have to admit that she can be rough on the edges sometimes. If you take good care of her, she will give you back so much joy. Forza Alfa!

    I am writing from Turkey. After the 4 156s I used, Giulietta was really a test for me. I solved many problems thanks to your videos. All that remains is the problem of the ABS module and the noisy suspension. I don't think you can do anything for the ABS, but I am looking forward to the video with your recommendations for the suspension. Even though I changed a lot of parts, the problem continues.
    You have great content, it is very enjoyable to watch. Please excuse me if there are any mistakes in my English translation :)

    Start stop works fine if the battery is in a good state. When I first got my car the system was unpredictable. When I changed the battery I installed an AGM battery - wow what a difference. Start stop now really makes difference, I've pulled over at times and the engine has stopped for nearly 10 mins before starting again.

    • @arcgarage
      @arcgarage  Місяць тому +1

      Exactly what I have experienced, but then again the system needs to meet numerous parameters to work properly

      ​@@arcgarageYou're right, it also depends on electrical load, eg headlights. It's also disabled if rear demister is on. Thanks for the great videos, next job for me is to watch your fuel cap video and fix mine!

    Good video, i agree the Giulietta is a good car. Especially after the facelift which fixed many issues. My father used to have a 2014 Giulietta and has now bought a 2020 Giulietta because it was so good. Before he has never owned a car longer than 1 or 2 years 😂
    I have heard about an issue with the rear wheel arch liner hitting the body and causing some rusting near the rear sill before the facelift. Have you seen this ever?

    what changes happened 2013 to multiair unit?
    I only know the early mito units 2009/10 had probs...
    no issues here with 2011 giulietta so dont panic (but only 95000km). engine is very nice if not the best for a budget giulietta. Fires like 180 or 190hp! Keep oil fresh and clean and do the right oil specs (most important) is the magic. every 30000, you could clean debris from multiair filter if paranoid...
    Man, thanks for your nice videos, helped a lot!

    • @arcgarage

    Hi there I got a quick question so the 2013 model onwards has had the engine issue fixed right? Fingers crossed because I bought the 2013 model earlier this year with just over 30,000 km on the clock. I’ve added another 20,000km to it & thankfully have had no problems so far.

    I have a 2010 170hp multiair and a 2015 Qv Line 170hp. Both have had boot wiring looms I've had to fix (Not an issue as I'm an electritian) My Qv line has a stiff storage compartment, My inner door handle was peeling so it had to be replaced, I replaced my gear knob in advance, DAB arial not working (Most likely a wiring loom issue) my fuel door is fine but fragile. My Bluetooth can be hit and miss sometimes, Mine is 1.4L Turbo and the vapour line that recurculates oil to the inlet of the turbo back feeds and oil collects in the air filter. Don't even get me started on the fear of waterpump / Timing belt going and detonating the engine.

    Hello, please make your original English-Audio default again. I hate this AI translation. If someone doesn't understand english he still can choose his language in the player settings manually. I suppose the majority understands english so please change back to original audio as default, no need to auto-translate. Of course this is only my opinion.
