Common Problems: ALFA ROMEO GIULIA
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Relay Failure & Random Limp Mode(Serious)
A bank of six micro-relays located behind the front-right (passenger side) wheel well liner is a major failure point. Sticking relays for the starter or auxiliary water pump can cause "no-crank" scenarios, parasitic battery drain, or random "limp mode" where the car loses power.
- Parasitic Battery Drain & AGM Upgrade(Moderate)
The Giulia is extremely sensitive to voltage. Factory EFB batteries often struggle, leading to "ghost" faults. Many owners upgrade to a larger H8 (LN5) AGM battery (95Ah) to solve these issues. Parasitic drain can also be caused by the USB hub or BCM staying awake.
- Suspension Bushing & Alignment Issues(Moderate)
Front lower control arm bushings wear prematurely, and the aggressive factory "Ackermann" steering geometry causes significant tyre scrubbing on full lock. This is often misinterpreted as a mechanical fault but leads to rapid inner tyre wear.
