Buying Tips for the Alfa Romeo Stelvio

  • A strong AGM battery matters on these cars because weak voltage creates a cascade of false warning lights and start-stop complaints.
  • Inspect the inner edges of the tyres and listen for front-end noises because alignment and bush wear matter on heavy, wide-wheeled Stelvios.
  • On 2.2 diesel cars, check for AdBlue, NOx or emissions-system faults even if the warning lights are currently off.
  • Test all driver-assistance systems, cameras and the infotainment screen from a cold start because electrical niggles often appear before the engine is warm.
