Can Alfa Romeo service save me money?

Servicing the drivetrain system can help you save money by saving other parts of your vehicle. A bad drivetrain can put undue stress on other vehicle parts and lead to premature wear and tear.

What are signs my Alfa Romeo drivetrain is damaged?

Hear noises toward the back of your Alfa Romeo Spider? See fluid leaking? Having issues turning? These could all be signs of drivetrain damage you don't want to ignore. Take action quickly to catch repairs or replacements before something more severe happens.

How often should I come in for Alfa Romeo Spider differential service?

Differential service frequency varies from car to car. Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. We generally recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine since your vehicle cannot function without a differential.

What triggers the malfunction indicator light (MIL) in a Spider?

The malfunction indicator light — also known as the check engine light — on your Spider can illuminate for a variety of reasons, including engine issues, electrical problems, damaged sensors, transmission problems, misfires, and faulty connections.

Is it possible to reset the Spider malfunction warning light on my own?

While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable. The check engine light is typically a sign of a problem in one of your Spider's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue. Instead, you should bring your vehicle to a reliable auto shop to have the underlying problem identified and fixed to help ensure the safety and reliability of your Spider.

Is a drivetrain malfunction in my Spider serious?

Is the transmission considered part of the drivetrain in my Spider?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your Spider’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your Spider forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.
