    Loosing coolant...

    No emulsion on the dipstick is there?

    Summer ace 10th may!!

    No, it's not. The last time I had a car on a loader was back in the 1980s. That was my Thema Turbo - the last Italian car I owned before getting the Maser. Steve.

    Ecu recommendations

    Yes-----but they're put into the car by Italians (using spaghetti as wiring.)

    Summer ace 10th may!!

    I live in Uxbridge and find the BBC Weather website is pretty accurate. I'm going for 14-16c and, more importantly, dry. My 3200 is on strike at the moment. Is is socially acceptable to turn up to the pub in a 1997 523i? Steve.

    Looks like a good buy.

    Leaking

    Yeah, K-seal. I was losing up to a litre very 200 miles but no sign of a leak under pressure testing and a little emulsion on the dipstick. Since putting K-seal in I've had no further symptoms. I know Mike Roberts put it in his car and that's what gave me the confidence to try it. Steve.

    no throttle response

    Thanks will do. Would anybody like to suggest one? Otherwise I'll just do a search and randomly go for something reasonably cheap. In any case it looks like a trailer ride back to MaseratiShed for me.

    no throttle response

    Yeah, I get a CEL but clear it with the resets. Must get a code reader! TDC sensor might be a good call. I'm reluctant to believe it's TB or PP as they've just been done/checked by Mike. Thanks, Steve.

    no throttle response

    I have this same problem - but intermittently. I had a throttle body rebuild and the pedal pot checked at MaseratiShed a few weeks before. Problem seems to occur when I drive a few miles, wait 1/2 hour and then try to drive home. Battery reset and throttle reset seem to clear it for a (very)...

    3200 Asseto Corsa front roll bar remanufacture

    Hi Dave, I'm still unsure as I don't have much data to go on. Interest will generally depend on price vs benefit. It's not that I wouldn't be interested, just that I don't know that I will be for sure. For example: if we estimate that we're talking £200 for the bar and 4 hours to fit then we...

    It's pretty big, not unusually small.

    3200 GT Error oil level light

    I have a funnel I keep in the boot specifically for that job. (And others for oil and for coolant.)

    3200 GT Error oil level light

    There's nothing to stop the filler pipe into the washer bottle pushing into the bottle so far that the opening of the pipe is flush against the opposite wall. This results in an overflow when filling the washers once the pipe is full. Later it will trickle into the bottle but will be used up in...

    3200 GT Error oil level light

    Oddly my 3200GT doesn't do this. Maybe I should scrap it as a 'dud' car? Steve.

    Looks like the end of the Maserati adventure........

    Personally, I wouldn't waste energy on arguing about the loan car. Focus on the important thing. You need, and are entitled to, a replacement AC or it's true cash equivalent. It can take up to a year to argue them up sufficiently. Others have covered evidence of value etc. but don't forget the...
