Hello everyone,
i have just become the rpod owner of a Stilo Abarth Selespeed, and i've got to say it's spot on. 18K miles, 1 previous owner in sprint blue.
i do have a couple of questions though, is there an update of the navigation system? I was drving around the M42 last night and the maps in the car were clearly out of date, it was no big problem cos i knew where i was going, but there's potential to get caught out... somebody must know how to do this
Secondly, under corniering at 30 mph there's a knocking coming through the steering wheel + it's audible (only with the radio turned down), i will be getting this checked out by a garage (cos i'm no spanner monkey) but i just wondered if it was a common thing, is it a cause for concern?
Thirdly. It needs lowering!!! any recomendations? I'd prefer to just swap out the springs to give about a 35mm drop. I also want to keep an air of comfort to the car. (I used to have a Mk2 Golf that I ruined by lowering too much, it made it too harsh a car for everyday living - shame cos before that it was a lovely car ) I do realise i could go crazy and spend big bucks on some coilovers, but i'd rather not!!!
Cheers Rob
