Alfa Romeo 164 Register.com

You should rather try a car for the Brasilian market (Alfa 164 as v6 12v and 24v only), these models had engines taht comply to a certain percentage of Rtzhanol. They have modified seals.

This post is for Alfisti from North America only, isn't it?

I am in Skåne.

So, you live closer to Hamburg as to the Pärs home

Hi Pär,

the car looks really nice.

Hi Rusty,

Thank you. My garagist solved the matter: I got a pipe for a 1st series 164 which was too short. Therefrom a hydraulic shop could take the screw and put it on the old pipe.

A guy from around Leizzig (DE) offers a set of sport seats in cuoio / tan color.

He's not willing to ship them, just asks for pick up.

Thanks for the hint - it's something for the alternative parts thread.

Hello Marc, as already stated above the Q4 is the pinnacle and parts are more rare as for the other ones. Its as well rather difficult to get parts for the 24V as for the 12v. If you would like a collectors car search for a Q4, OV. If you prefer a car rather to enjoy as to collect think about a 12v....

Meanwhile the automatic is still waiting for spare parts. Even that I got the needed oil cooler from Hendik "fasani" there is still missing one oil tube, the srew connect of the old one is distorted. I still ordered a tube for the serie 1 Automatic but it's too short. The part no of the tu...

Thank you. Just back home now. The drive was a lot of fun

The car did well on the 3 000km. Only issues were the ABS bulb light and the annoiying fan noise. The 164 is perfect for long distances - particularly equipped with Recaro seats

At presernt I am in holidays in Liguria. I went here with the 164. First turn was from Hamburg to Zürich. After 1 working week in Zürich and picking up my wife at the airport we continued to Italy, just taking some passes (Grimsel, Simplon) instead of queuing in the traffic jam on the Gotthard way. ...

You have one of the best 164 Super - and now you announce to mount a QV kit <8-0

In my opion you should really rethink to do it. Moreover your car has the wrong colour for that.

Hi Hendrik,

That would be great if you would find the right tube in there.

I still ordered a tube for the serie 1 Automatic but it's too short. My garagist wanted to ask someone to take the screw from that tube to replace the distorted one at the old tube.

Meanwhile the automatic is still waiting for spare parts. Even that I got the needed oil cooler from Hendik "fasani" there is still missing one oil tube, the srew connect of the old one is distorted. [url=https://postimg.cc/WhFXTTXR] https://i.postimg.cc/WhFXTTXR/IMG-20210313-145431.jpg [/...

What I ask myself - now that the suspension is entirely rebuilt, with refurbished adjustable dampers: Is is true that you cannot feel a great difference between Auto and Sport mode of the electronical suspension control? I am not sure if the suspension feel smoother in Auto mode just because I expec...

Thank you, just did enjoy it :) Went out to the countryside oit of Hamburg and had a ride on the country lanes as well as a bit on the highway. Was quite fun. It's just amazing how much fun it is to drive the 164 v6, how it just asks you to be driven, to rev it, without being demanding. [url=https:/...

Now the 164 is back on the road, just freshly MOT (TÜV) approved. )

So you have the calipers from the 166 Brembo break but not the 310mm disks but smaller ones for early 156 GTA?

Many thanks to Fasani - he offered me the wanted part and will deliver it soon.

Well, now I consider to change the differential or what ever it is for a longer drive ratio. The Lancia k 3.0 Automatic which has the similar auto transmission has a much longer drive ratio. This should be helpful to lower the rev level while going with high speed on German Autobahn. I guess that th...

For that price ...

... must be added some more

The Automatic now is done and ready to drive it into the garage - just waiting for the needed gearbox oil cooler
