    Hi All, Can anyone tell me how to force a gearbox re-learn using the Autel AP200 on my 2013 MC shift. I just can’t see where to do it in the menu? Also - my PIS position is 4.30 rather than the 4.19 that Matt suggests - how can I manually change this? All I can see is ‘restore default...

    Winter tyre sizes (GT)

    I know this topic comes up every year, and I have searched the forum for answers…. I have a GT on 20’s, Pzero’s, which as we know are great in the dry when at temp, but terrible in cold and damp/wet conditions. They’ve not coped well in heavy rain recently. I can’t wait for the Pzero’s to die...

    UK Maserati store website

    So - I was looking for a key ring for my new P&J, and had a quick look on the Maserati site to see how extortionate they are. I found some very tasteful ones priced at £0.00 Now - I’ve managed to capitalise on website pricing errors for car parts before. Are these worth a punt for £10 delivery...

    Rookie question so apologies: I’m trying to pick up a few bits from Eurospares but they are showing as ‘New Special Order’ eg chassis plates. does that mean they don’t have stock and will sit on my money until they get some? Or does it mean I have to wait until Maserati make some more? the...

    Mortlake West London, anybody on here? 1 owner, full dealer history, 55k miles, 2011. Would a dealer flag any subframe issues? Or is it a case of ‘they all do that, sir’? https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202204124579655 your collective thoughts welcome

    So - I’ve just got off the phone from a chap I asked to do a PPI on a 2010 GTS - attached are pics of the subframe- he reckons it should be an MoT fail. (Due 6th Aug) What cost should I expect to pay to buy and have a refurbed front subframe fitted? The car is mechanically sound otherwise...

    Easy access system…

    Should the easy access system work on both sides of the car? I drove a 2016 Granturismo Sport yesterday to check rear space for my growing kids and only the drivers seat moved forward when trying to access the rear. Is this by design? (Noting they are designed for LHD) The sales brochures I...
