Known faults for Alfa Romeo Alfa Romeo GT
Our database tracks 3 specific mechanical faults and recurring failure patterns identified across UK MOT testing stations for this generation.
MOT Roadworthiness: Excellent
This rating reflects historical MOT pass rates and recurring advisory wear patterns from official DVSA test logs. Note that roadworthiness does not verify outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen records.
Verify lender finance agreements, insurance write-offs, police stolen registers, and mileage rollback.
Common Problems: ALFA ROMEO GT
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Front Upper Wishbone Bush and Ball Joint Wear(Moderate)
The Alfa GT uses a high double-wishbone front suspension setup inherited from the 156. The upper wishbone rubber bushes and integrated ball joints endure heavy lateral loading and road grime from UK roads. The rubber bushes perish and dry out, generating loud creaks over speed bumps, clunks over broken tarmac, and rapid tyre scrub on the inner edges of the front tyres.
- Twin Spark and JTS Cambelt Tensioner Failure(Serious)
The 1.8 Twin Spark and 2.0 JTS four-cylinder petrol engines utilise a toothed cambelt with a composite plastic tensioner pulley. Original Alfa Romeo schedules specified a 72,000-mile interval, but recurring tensioner bearing seizure and belt snapping forced UK specialists to revise the limit to 36,000 miles or 3 years. If the belt fails, valves collide with pistons, destroying the cylinder head.
- Sill and Floorpan Structural Corrosion(Serious)
The GT features plastic sill body mouldings that trap damp mud, road grit, and winter salt against the steel inner and outer sills. Over time, moisture attacks the structural floor outriggers, jacking points, and rear sill ends from within. What appears as pristine paintwork on the upper panels can conceal crumbling, perforated steel underneath, resulting in expensive MOT structural failures.
