Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my Selespeed transmission hesitate or fail to engage gears?
The Type 939 Spider’s Selespeed system is known for hydraulic actuator wear and pressure sensor drift. The manual covers full actuator bleeding sequences, clutch bite-point relearning via the diagnostic interface, and the replacement procedure for the external hydraulic pump — the most common hardware failure on high-mileage cars.
Does this manual cover the Alfa Romeo Brera, which shares the same platform?
This manual is specific to the Spider (Type 939) body style. The Brera coupe shares the GM/Fiat Premium platform and several drivetrain components, but its body structure, convertible-top system, and some electrical schematics differ. A separate Brera-specific manual is recommended for that vehicle.
Are the 2.4L JTDm diesel wiring diagrams included for US-market diagnosis?
Yes. Although the 2.4L JTDm I5 diesel was not officially sold in the US, the eLearn manual includes complete wiring diagrams and ECU pin-outs for all engine variants. This is especially useful for grey-market imports and for understanding shared circuits on the 3.2L V6 petrol version sold in North America.
What format is the manual?
This is Alfa Romeo’s factory eLearn dealer software — not a PDF. It runs locally on Windows, Mac, or Linux after a simple installation. You get searchable text, bookmarked sections, high-resolution zoom diagrams, and connector pinout charts, mirroring exactly what Alfa Romeo dealer technicians use.
