I have a Gran Cab, love it but my interior door levers are a bit marked and some of the chrome has flaked off over the years and Id like to replace them or have them re-chromed etc if that is possible. Anyone done this or have any suggestions please?

So an update on this, I finally had the drop links replaced, but that didnt make any difference, will look at the lower wishbone ball joint, but my local garage seems to think it may be the steering rack, anyone know if this is something can could cause knocks like this at all?

Thanks Phil, But it appears the fuse box is different for the Cabrio, as mine isnt the same as that, mine is as in the photo, which as you can see is different. Not sure why I dont have a manual, looking online I can only see a Granturismo manual not Gran Cabrio? Cheers mIke

Thanks, any idea which fuse is the one to try and change? Ive not been aboe to find a description of the fuses anywhere and the manuals dont seem to have any info

My nav etc, all works, but there is no sound, this went after a flat battery, so suspect its a fuse gone, well going to try that first anyway, anyone know which fuse is the one to change? Ill try to upload a photo of the fuse tray..

Thanks guys, will give it a go....

One of the rear parking sensors has come loose and I want to have a look to see if its something straight forward, is it easy to get at them and how do I do it? I can see bolts on the bottom, is it as easy as removign them and it comes off?

thanks, didnt know they were also called tie rod..... Scuderia do sell them after all here and much cheaper, thanks https://www.scuderiacarparts.com/part/201812/maserati/259572/ball-tie-rod.html

thanks will check, where is the best place to buy drop links as cant seem to find them listed?

Thanks, will ask them to check, but where would I buy drop links, just had a look of scuderia car parts, they dont seem to list them?

Thanks, yes a dull thud only over smal things like cats eyes, over larger bumps, not so much, which makes me feel the suspension is mostly ok, as ive replaced all the suspension bushes upper and lower. could this be drop links as suggested by someone else?

Hi All, Ive got a Gran Cabrio and ive got a dull metal to metal kind of sound coming from the suspension, had the bushes on the suspension replaced, so thinking it is probably the shock absorber, any thoughts? If so, can you just replace the bushes on the shock absorber or do you have to buy...

Thanks

Hi Guys, I have a Gran Cabrio and the music system has started to periodically stop working, with no sound, gives a loud audio thud and stops, any idea what it is? Im going to take it to the garage, but would be good to have an idea. Cheers Mike
