    BOSCH AEROTWIN WINDSCREEN WIPERS

    I live quite close to Monthlery, south of Paris.. I put those blades as I was looking for a cheap replacement (and for only 1 or 2 storms a year...). But if you have some spare originals Don t bother indeed.

    BOSCH AEROTWIN WINDSCREEN WIPERS

    Hi Tony I do have these on my 32. I took the AR 550 S They are fine the passenger side is just a bit away on about 2 cm at the corner when down but nothing bad. Work perfectly. If you want to take a look...

    Oil cap hissing noise

    Exactly. Some did that too. If ever you decide to go for the rivet solution, you have to pinch it a bit to reduce. Remember it's highly scientific:yeah:

    Oil cap hissing noise

    2 holes exactly opposite seems normal. but I don't think they vent and yours has been drilled in the inside as well. It is possibly a solution to avoid a different hissing sound. I put a coin that if you block theese holes you will have a hissing sound (but different) at idle when hot. If yes...

    3200 Thermostat

    We are plenty to have it on our 3200. It s a perfect fit. The only difference is that it opens at 80 celcius, vs 85 for the original. OK 5 degrees theoretical difference... For me 80 is fine on our old engines..

    What do members want from SportsMaserati

    Hi, Happy to be aligned with the majority of this poll. I personally enjoy coming here and read point of views also on other topics than maserati technics. Imho, if a group of people share a common interest then they are more prompt to discuss on different subjects, should they be conflictual...

    Piston Weights?

    Hi Alpa, always great to read your in depth analysis and learn things.. So for a 2l 24v (like a racing ;)) we can swap the chains with vw 2l GTI? Do you know if the 3,2 heads are similar (+2 pistons) design than the v6 24v? Again for the chains even if supposedly lasting forever on the...

    Random/interesting/curious event today with my 3200 at the dual carriageway

    Hi, the only limp mode I happened to have was a p1226 error indicating the pedal pot. It doesn't mean it s this pb for you but could be. The good thing is that you have on this forum the world's best producer of contactless pedal pot for 3200. :D Yes David Askew provides alternative oil sensor...

    4200 Rear tie rod bearing availability

    Superformance sells the tie rod end assembly (GE15C + rings). The job is not that hard though, the more difficult being to find the proper motivation to start the job and to fit the tie rod back may be tricky... You may want to take a look here for photos, but I'm sure you'll find a lot on SM as...
