    Anyone know what these are…?

    I figured a security torx bit. T27 in fact.. er..no. Maserati must get these specially made..? Do I drill the teet and use a reg torx, or is there a fitting that can undo these little bugger5…. Remember kids, it’s for your own good..!

    Black screen of death..!

    A slightly dramatic title but never the less, I am being presented with a complete lack of life from the NIT screen upon start up each morning... I can see the display unit is backlit at the small round knobs bottom l&r, and the LCD screen has power. Run a fingernail across it and the liquid...

    FS- 8 x 3200 spark plugs

    I have a full set of plugs suitable for the 3200 that have done less than 1000 miles in my 4200. These are NGK-PMR8A's and recommended for the 3200. If anyone wants a cheap set of plugs, get in touch. What are a (barely) used set of plugs worth..? Me neither- open to offers...! tah

    Door lock assembly- rh

    I've been looking for a door lock assembly since mine decided it only works occasionally; a scenario I expect only to grow worse.. I wonder of anyone has a defunct unit (either side) that they have removed to fix their own issues. These were still available only 18 months ago at about £80-100...

    Dash vents- getting them out...?

    I know this has come up in discussion before. The heater matrix replacement thread tells of simply removing the two outer most vents as part of the process- no further details.Pretty sure I know how these are fitted and they are the same as the center console/rear seat vents... My question is...

    Tracker ?

    Would someone be kind enough to confirm what I am looking at here- I think it's the tracker from under the parcel shelf of my MY2006 4200 ..? Is that all it is ? Are these sensors and aerials all to do with GPS tracking and alarming..? The fuse is blown , Im guessing why it's never been an...

    PO128 and O2 sensors....

    Ive just had a quote from McGrath for nearly £580 for replacement lambda sensors in the 4200.. Only one has thrown up a recorded fault. Quite apart from the prices ( I note that there are significantly cheaper...

    Precautions before welding a 4200...?

    Basically I want to minimise potential damage to electrics from welding on the car.. Presumably, isolating the electrics via the boot switch AND disconnecting the battery is all that's required Id have thought, or is there something I need to know before I blow up expensive ECUs end such...

    Educated guess why its started to sound like a clockwork orange...?

    I was giving the car a shakedown prior to it's MOT early next week. I noticed that it started making a pronounced and light ticking sound that is engine speed related. I hear another 4200 doing this ( bought by a forum member who reported no problems because of it but it was the reason I didnt...

    Retrofit parking sensors- 4200

    Ive found the central (main) connector block for (optional) rear parking sensors in the boot of my facelift 4200.. Can I use this connector to simply plug in sensors ( if i had them fitted ), or does it require other sensors, like, I dunno, something to tell it it's in reverse, and a speaker for...

    Harmonic damper pulley 4200

    Has anyone tried removing the damper pulley from their 4200...? Ive read of a special tool, and I realise I could probably lock the flywheel with a bar if I had two pairs of hands...! Perhaps there is enough compression to get the screw undone if I leave it in gear...? It isnt a QP...so when...

    Rear tie rod removal...

    Presumably the easiest thing is to remove the long stud that locates the tie rod helm joint through the hub carrier from the ball joint, then wind it off the wishbone....? cheers

    Fuel pump(s)...?

    How noisy are they meant to be...? I ve had the trim out of the boot area to get at the shock heads - this preamble is needed as perhaps it is the lack of said trim that is making the difference but the fuel pumps appear to be making alot of noise when the engine is running. A constant...
