Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my Alfa Romeo 159 Selespeed hesitate or lurch during gear changes?
The Selespeed automated manual transmission is prone to hydraulic actuator wear and clutch bite-point drift over time. This manual provides the full calibration procedure, actuator pressure specifications, and hydraulic pump replacement steps needed to restore smooth shifting on 2004–2011 Type 939 models.
Does coverage extend to the Alfa Romeo Brera and Spider?
Because the Brera and Spider share the Type 939 platform with the 159, many chassis, suspension, and powertrain procedures apply directly. The manual explicitly references shared components across these badge siblings.
Are wiring diagrams and CAN-bus schematics included?
Yes. Full electrical schematics cover the engine management system, ABS/ESP, climate control, infotainment, and all body circuits, complete with connector pinout tables for every module in the 159’s CAN-bus network.
What format is the manual?
The manual is delivered as E.Learn interactive software — not a static PDF. It runs on Windows, Mac, and Linux, and features searchable text, zoom-capable diagrams, bookmarks, and multi-language support including English, Italian, German, Spanish, French, Dutch, and Portuguese.
