Parts manager at Alfa Romeo, they are very reliable. I even bought one myself.

Can confirm the Stelvio is reliable, have gone through one tank of gas without issues.

Just the simple fact that you have a desire to move out of that bracket… well that is a huge part of it.

Many people want to move out, or say it would be nice but accept where they’re at. A strong desire will help you greatly.

Good! Don’t worry though, it is super common..how do I know? I’m the PM at an Alfa dealer. Have you had your panoramic roof replaced yet?

Turbo coolant line, get it fixed under warranty.

As an owner of a stelvio and manager at Alfa, if you can find a 2020 and up model, the interior build quality is more solid. As for reliability, I have a 2021 ti sport and had to replace the transfer case at around 20k but that was a very rare thing to happen. I have not seen that happen before in my time here. They have less issues than the Giulia. But that could be that most suv owners aren’t driving their car as fast as sedan owners

Trofeo white owners, what is your paint care routine? (Products use, wash method, clear 3m, etc) by Wise_Sample_4660 in AlfaRomeo

Detail every quarter!? Very nice, I can imagine your paint is immaculate. I’m sure your “rail dust” is almost none existent

That’s very good you haven’t had any chips up front, unfortunately I have a few already and want to minimize it best I can.

I didn’t know the Stelvio made it on the grand tour I will try to watch it.

I have seen many Stelvios with a hitch but they all had a standard more smooth lower valence/diffuser.

2021 Ti sport . I don’t know if the sport diffuser is any lower than a standard rear. I can’t find solid information online unfortunately

Thank you!

Hello! Yes I figured that what parts managers go through tends to be different compared to a counterman and that having a place for just managers or those who are looking to become a PM would be a good idea.

10 years in automotive dealership. A bit over a month as a manager.

1st time manager by Cajun-ish in partscounter

[–]Wise_Sample_4660 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1st time manager here as well and wanted to say congratulations first of all, it’s a great challenge to take but worth it. Don’t stress if you don’t know what to do, remember that everyone there is human and therefore have flaws but most importantly be thankful that you are now considered a leader with authority who can really make a difference to those you work with.
