1999 Alfa Romeo 156 V6 review from Australia and New Zealand
"Smiles in and out"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Every 3000 kilometres the auto transmission error light comes on. Is reset by turning car on & off (mildly annoying).
General comments?
Great car - best stress relief ever invented - can't believe that there hasn't been rave reviews about the Q-system auto transmission.
