Alfa156 electric window repair

All of sudden, my electric window on the driver side was not working properly. It went up but did not go down with the control panel. It was so inconvenient whenever I needed to get in and out from car parks, to pay tolls, etc.

I checked the window control panel, the other 3 buttons worked perfectly. Only the driver side window didn’t work. Someone suggested that the problem was the comfort control unit.

Power steering pipe leakage

From the day I got the Alfa 156, I experienced twice of having squeaks when turning the steering wheel. The root cause is the low fluid level as the result of power steering pipe leakage. Though topping up the power steering fluid can be the temporary fix, I decided to have it really fixed. I don’t want to damage the power steering pump.

Steering rod gaitor replacement

The right steering rod gaitor was found broken when I toke off the broken engine guard the week before last week, this Saturday I book an early time slot with the mechanic to fix it.  Woo…..it was really decomposing.    The mechanic said the left hand side is fine, I just decided to replace both on the left and right.
