Campaigns and weak points of the Alfa Romeo Stelvio and GiuliaKnown weak points
Engine / equipment
Alfa Romeo Stelvio and Giulia (2.0 Turbo petrol and 2.2 diesel)
Period mentioned
2016 onwards
Symptoms
Loss of power and higher consumption from carbon on injectors and intake (petrol); a fuel gauge that reads too high; exterior lights that fail; on diesels, fire risk from the alternator cable rubbing on the EGR pipe.
Possible cause described
Documented recalls (KBA/ADAC): water in the lighting electronics (December 2016–May 2018), a coolant line that could come loose (2016–2018), the diesel alternator cable touching the EGR (18/1/2017–18/9/2018), the fuel gauge (31/3/2016–26/7/2019, fixed by software). Direct injection encourages carbon build-up.
Check for the garage
Check every campaign by VIN; on diesels, check the alternator cable; read codes if there is a loss of power.
