    I just recently bought a 22 stelvio and had to get a second key from the dealer. Which the place i bought the car from paid for. It was $364 for the key fob, $215 to program. But the craziest price was $315 for the little key that is inside the key fob. While at dealer they showed me that my serpentine belt was cracked and wanted $285 to change it. I bought just the belt from the dealer for $34.45.. love your videos keep up the good work

    The Alfa dealers are honestly crazy with their pricing. I asked the Daytona dealer what it would cost to adjust my headlamps because I'm tired of blinding people,and they quoted an hour of labor ($280 +tax). Blows my mind.
    As far as the offer you got for the Giulia btw, I thought not using the Wolf of Wallstreet meme in the last video was a missed opportunity. Glad to have seen it on this one 😂😂

    Good video! I replaced filter on my Stelvio once so far and it was a major PITA, took me a bit over two hours, I did not want to force any plastics and/or break any clips. Would still do it again myself instead of paying the dealer. About to change my rotors and pads this weekend, you should do a video on that. PS: Independent Euro shop quoted $1,300 for rear and front including standard aftermarket rotors/pads. It would be about 2k if OEM. Pricing for Western New York.

    I would add that when pulling the glovebox, though more an issue when reinstalling, those bolts are super soft compared to most torx bits, so its easy to chowder up the bolt heads by overtorquing
    Same goes for the torx bolts on the aero tray you pull when changing the oil
    Alfissimo has replacement bolts, so easy fix to my mistake
