Hi, Happened to me (2004 GT) Regulator is Alfa part number 60667936. Ebay have non OEM items .. but worked ok for me (£130) and still ok 4 years on. Takes an hour or two to fit. Not difficult - more just time taking door panel off and then lining up runners/glass when fitting new unit...

I am toying with the thought of selling mine, 4200 GT, Rosso/Nero, RHD, Larini X pipe (else standard). 39,000 miles, MY 2004 (04 plate) though currently has private plate. Obviously price will be the deciding factor. Colb

At the risk of further 'let's have a laugh' comments, this is why I paint mine. please direct contra arguments/disagreements/adverse comments direct to the association. http://www.bssa.org.uk/topics.php?article=89 Colb

Fair comment, but it's better than the factory spec humbrol silver paint. cheers Colb

Personally used Hammerite silver. Doing 2 bolts per wheel at a time, to save taking the wheels off (obviously not driving it - whilst in the garage). Just use some wet & dry to get any loose rust off, wash with mild detergent, dry, then paint using small modellers type paint brush. Leave to...

Once was outside a bank, once was at QV London (actually Windsor - Indi Ferrari service, good bloke), currently it seems ok but the padlock symbol seems to take half second or so to extinguish, whereas before it was immediate. It's almost like it is because of IOS 8.1.2 or newer = maybe I...

That was first port of call, but will try again as first time I probably only waited 5 mins (outside a cashpoint).

The lock symbol is displayed, which to be honest I didn't know what it meant initially - so had to check the manual. Wd40 was just that I felt I needed to make some sort of effort . . . maybe something was sticking was the vague logic. C .... turns over ok though, just no ignition

Hi all, Rare post from me . . . anyway, recently my 4200 has occasionally decided not to recognise the key (spare key included) = won't start. Common denominators are: a.Has been running over 10 minutes b.Has been on trickle charge for 1 week + c.After 1 min or less it decides...

As an alternative suggestion . . . said occurred with my 4200, the air con drain tube runs under the sat nav/radio. This is mounted on rubbers which over the years shrink - therefore pinching the drain tube = backs up & leaks into passenger footwell. All fixed by Maranello.... £ irritating...

Hi, Apols for being a bit late, as you will probably have resolved already. But for future searches: Alfa part number is 60667936. I got brand new one (not official Alfa though) on ebay for £124 . . . you need to use the two rails/channels from the old one though. cheers C

Hi Simon, Standard rear boxes, couldn't really justify the £1,500 or so for Larini's there (yet). Noise is slightly lower than pre x-pipe . . from a more noticeable burble at tick over - turning into a crackle/rasp at about 4,300-4,400 rpm & above. Under load I'm told it sounds a lot...

Hi, Assuming I've attached the pics correctly, this is a larini x-pipe fitted to my 4200 (about a month ago). cheers C

Same happened to mine when I put new speakers in, transpired it was a dead short, caused by me - wire was pinched when putting back door panel. cheers Colb

Hi all, Thought I'd sign up .... best known from/for 'other' forum for occasional acidic comment & the famous "turbos on a 4200" exchange with a 15yr old Aussie. Entertaining to say the least. Still got the MY04 4200GT Rosso Mondiale, considerably poorer but still with a grin. cheers...
