Hi wonder if you can help.

I have a 99 146 Ti and when driving quite happily sits at 90 degrees Celsius. When i engage the air con the gauge starts to climb. Switch the air con off and it drops again to 90.

Any ideas ?

Thanks

Neil

146

hi mate have you checked your radiator as they corrode quite bad . i have a w plate 145 cloverleaf that gets quite hot and needs a new rad so have ordered it and hopefully should run cooler.
i have also heard that they run hot with the air con switched on.
also have a look at this site www.alfa145.com they have alot of useful information about 145 and 146 .
hope this helps.
