Re: rear wishbone rubber

So did you find something? Do you have a part number for it or the unit the bushing is mounted in?

Re: Alfa 164 q4 owner

If you had any problems with fuel pressure, the submersible hose is definitely worth to check. But if restoring the car, it is worth changing components that are likely to be worn.

Re: Alfa 164 q4 owner

Good to hear that you still have it and want to keep it😎

Look at this thread, it contains bosch numbers and a possible other solution, though photos are not available anymore.

Re: Engine thermal death due to fault in transmission oil cooler (automatic)?

A long read, but interesting info!

I may have lost the overview a bit, but when replacing the engine(s) I guess you also had new/other waterpump thermostat and other ancillaries? Same transmission? New/other radiator? If some of this was replaced, I would rule out those being the main cause of the ...

Re: 3.0 12V accelerates itself

Sounds to me like an airleak, which has increased over time... Maybe combined with an electrical issue, when it occurs.

I don't have anything more specific, but I guess the suggestions in similar situations of trying to spray something (non-flammable) around the hoses might be a place to start.

Re: Stronger rear springs

I don't know, but I think it will be difficult to find, unless they have an armoured version, where the springs are stronger for the extra weight.

Re: jerking engine

I don't know much about the 2L version, but I guess a place to look is at the throttle linkage to the plenum - maybe it has become a bit 'sticky' over time?

Yes, as I have mentioned on a few occasions, Nagengast have done a great job on the adjustable shocks on my Q4 and 8.32, and steering racks for both, as well.
