In a high humidity environment, such as the PNW, it is good practice to fill the car with ethanol-free gas if you can get it. Prevents water from...
I have not experienced that. Did you scan for codes?

One way to avoid clearing out the car's "memory" is to connect a power supply (or spare battery) before disconnecting the battery. Of course, if...
My 599 maintenance experience has been very different from others in this thread. I have owned my 2009 599 (12kmiles) for three years now. It has...
I have owned my 2009 599 now for 2+ years. I took it into the nearby hills Thanksgiving afternoon-a combination of straights, tight corners and...
If you can get a working set of heads for $6k, by all means do that. If you can't find heads at reasonable cost, you might try salvaging the...

My guess is the new belt was not seated properly and then shredded within a few miles. Of course, they would not admit to that. Did they show you...
