These cars are very easy to work on...one of the easiest (lots of room...smart design) and I have had a lot of cars!
Right! I was very surprised when I got mine. Granted I haven’t done any work in the engine bay, put pretty straight forward.
Beautiful car bro! I actually just purchased a 2024 Alfa Romeo Giulia. Weirdly the sprint that i bought came with paddle shifters and the big nice red ventilated bolster-sport seats. Mine is also white with black accents and she drives like an absolute ballerina I was going to go with the TI but the TI didn’t have the paddle shifters or the ventilated sport seats like my sprint did I thought that was weird like it should be the other way around so I went with the one I got but I’m happy. Much love bro
Thanks bro I appreciate. Yea you can add the paddle shifters to any model actually you can buy them on eBay pretty easy to install just got to be coded in the system.
The best all around sedan under $30k. Put close to 30k miles on mine in 1 year. Alfa knows how to build an engaging automobile.
@@princecarrington can’t agree more it’s definitely got some personality
The 2.0T engine and ZF transmission is solid with proper maintenance, like any other car. Most of the issues were relays or small electrical, that can all be updated. These things with the radiator issue, was resolved with the update in 2019-2020 and newer models. Solid car and fun chassis to drive.
Have a 2019 ti sport that has been flawless. I have it dealer serviced and only drive it hard 1 or twice a week.
Good video I will definitely look into this stuff when I buy one, what made your brake job so difficult?
Ah yea I forgot to mention that. Long story short you need to disconnect the battery when doing break service or it will throw a bunch of codes on the car. And to clear them you either have to have the Delaer do it or you got to buy a scanner, multiscan ECU program, adapter & bypass if you have 2019 and newer car. It’s definitely annoying but if you plan on keeping the car it’s nice to have them to do other simple things like reset your oil light and monitor systems.
I have 2017 Giulia and the wastegate arm problem (ongoing---waiting for a cheap fix), had the plastic coolant plug fail (grrr...$500 because a piece of plastic failed), and my AC compressor died at 6 years. I'm at 100K miles, about to change the plugs (for the 2nd time), brake pads (first time), oil chg (every 5K using only Mobil1/Pennzoil), aaannnd that's about it. No rattles, no squeaks, leather dash not lifted (I use conditioner once a year), leather seats not a bruise (unlike cheap GM leather in my 2014 Corvette that bruised in less than a year). Imho, not a Camry, but WAY more reliable than a Benz; but not quite as reliable as a 2.0 BMW or Audi with the EA888.
I have a 2012 c250 . Hardly any issues. Has a sun roof and I installed an apple android play screen with clear back up camera I feel like I'm going to downgrade by getting this car. Good thing I didn't get it before watching this video
Hmmm I haven’t heard about that problem yet. What mileage did you get your car at?
Same spec, mines Alpha red though. I have the black rims and full glass top. Love , love it. Mines a 2019. So have most kinks been worked out in 2019?
Yea I heard the 2017/2018 models have a lot more issues. I guess us 2019 up got some small updates/fixes.
Very good. Battery is the biggest Issue. Not Working windows hmm not normal. Your interiour needs love and some cleaning^^
Yes, true lol
@@importpro1334 anyway nice car i love it to but dealers suck big in Germany...
@@THEBUFUMAN. they suck here to :(
Row-ma-oh.
What spoiler do you have? It looks sick. Also looks a bit bigger than the OEM QV style spoiler. I also have a white Giulia with the black roof and window trim and I love the styling you did to yours. I wanted to get a CF spoiler, CF mirror caps, and CF V-grill on the front. But maybe going gloss black for all these parts would match better. Also want to powder coat my 5-hole wheels satin black or gunmetal.
Also , are you doing your own oil and does it require a reset in the computer. Getting ready for intake and muffler delete.
Yea I have done my own oil change, super simple and easy. You do have to reset the light with a scanner. Bit annoying but it’s nice to have the program you need (multiscan) is only $60 for a year.
No its people who owns other makes of car.that call alfa romeo mainly the people who own German garbage.
makes BMW look like a Toyota
I think ur low on oil 😂
That’s another fault I should have mentioned the oil level sensors on these cars are ASS. I had problems with mine when I first got the car not giving me accurate level reading & replaced it and it’s still not the most accurate.
Damn. This video made me not want one anymore
@@jesusmalverde612 why?
@@importpro1334 I was thinking of buying one to upgrade from my 2012 c250 mercedes. But upon watching videos, I feel like I'd be downgrading. My Benz has a huge screen I installed with clear backup camera and Apple Android play. Even has a sun roof I can open. I won't have any of that getting this car. Plus the Benz I've had has 140 thousand miles and I've had hardly any issues
Have you figured out how to reset the oil change required light and if so can you let me know the procedure?
