1999 Alfa Romeo 156 review from Australia and New Zealand
"If only it was as reliable as it SHOULD BE"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Erratic revving a week ago perhaps due to air filter being faulty?
Injection system malfunction light intermittently on.
Rear left electric window failed.
General comments?
I have only had this car for 2 weeks and already I pray I haven't bought a lemon.. Something tells me I have. It doesn't enjoy city driving, but eats the road up in the country which is amazingly fun. It goes to the garage tomorrow to have the problems addressed... I sure will miss my romeo (and my dollars?)
