The idea of the light is that the change up light shows when you are driving like a proper Italian! My old prisma years ago had an econo meter and I kept it in the red all the time :-)

I'm on efficient grip performance on the front they remove a lot of the jitter that the previous avons had but maybe aren't as sharp handling

He reckons 90 to 100 euro for front pair incl shipping which seems a lot but that's bespoke, I'll see what can be produced and report back

I've sent a message so will see, the other option is the official trims which are about £35 or so each, might be the best option but I remain unconvinced that if I order from fiat the right ones will turn up as I can't see a chrysler specific part number

I found an italian guy on facebook that makes custom alloy sill trims, I'm going to message him to see if he is able to do anything for the delta and if they can be done at a sensible price or not.

I think the issue is that after disconnecting the battery some items on the canbus have got out of sync apparently a proxi alignment is the only sure way to cure this as it will synchronise all the functions, it will be as cheap (or nearly) to get the software than go to a stealer. In any case the software is fascinating as you can check regens and stuff, but then again I'm a sad case!

Changed the wheel centre caps today, need to do the tailgate badge when weather is better and the airbag. Thinking to buy new sill kick plates but slightly concerned that even if I order Lancia ones from a UK dealer chrysler ones could turn up so will keep looking for some cheap in Italy for now.

I suspect you were unlucky with the mileage issue, when you did the job did you wait for the car systems to power down fully before disconnecting the battery? Wouldn't be surprised if that caused the issue. Will post the outcome when I do mine, just haven't had time to be bothered with it just yet

Yes I believe so, not sure of it's identical or not as gm applications often have minor differences. Stuarts has been mapped as well so well over 200hp

Another reason to buy a 2.0 limited, I would say mine is just adequately fast so the 1.6 wouldn't suit me. Shame they missed the two really decent models over here as Stuart's 1.9 twin turbo really shifts with the smaller turbos meaning it responds much better from low speeds. Never been in a 1.8 200hp auto but I imagine those must be really nice.

I think the Delta uses an automated manual (dualogic) that auto box mentioned is for the 200hp petrol model

I think finding one of the rarest modern cars in a rare variation for cheap is a big task

expensive-ish but UK supply strangely yesterday night and this morning it has worked perfectly aside from one glitch where the AF on the radio didn't pick up a frequency change. Importers are looking to swap the unit out for me so all is not yet lost

Sound quality issues it uses FM transmission into the standard radio I know this isn't perfect in itself but this allows full station info on the OE radio/nav/blue and me. Signal levels from the dab aerial seem OK I suspect a combination of poor DAC and issues with the fm , the unit itself in theory is very clever so I'm not sure why I'm having issues sometimes it's near perfect others it's just awful. Spent ages on it so far, they recommend fitting at front but that's not neat and the theory was that this may have been part of the FM signal to aerial issues so putting it at the back was both 100% neat and inconspicuous plus closer to the aerial. Routing the dab aerial cable front to back was a bind! still emailing manufacturer/importer to try to find a solution suspect that unit could be duff or have bad firmware

In the end wasted effort ended up using an aerial lead extension and mounting the box in the boot, much neater but jury is still out on sound quality I'm still not happy with it at the moment .......

Do you have climate control? If so it's possible that a motor and or flap is stuck. If the car is under warranty I Would suggest getting a dealer to put diag on the car should only take few mins the car might be permanently stuck on recirculation

Can't say that I have this issue, most likely you have a leak somewhere. Do you keep the air con on? if not try using it all year round it didn't waste much fuel and keeps the interior drier, secondly it keeps the compressor etc lubricated and in tip top condition reduces need to recharge.

How did you find changing the airbag was it as easy as it looks on paper and how do you feel about the holes in the surround that have to be made are they noticeable?

Try 'be on road' app not sure how good it is as I have standard nav however you can download the maps free so should work off line

After market specific fit options are available in Italy check out done other threads on this forum.

Try disconnecting the battery for about half an hour if that doesn't work you might need a proxi alignment for the can bus to relearn the fitted accessories, multiecuscan will do that but don't ask me how to do it seems a bit technical for me! If you haven't got multiecuscan get it well worth the 50 euros plus the cost of a set of compatible connectors

In an under populated forum I hardly consider it matters

you could order from local dealer but it will be expensive I would guess about £300 (yes really!!) have you thought about getting yours refinished? it is a very dark grey metallic and as far as I can see the grille is otherwise identical. another option might be to buy one off an owner who has Lancia'd their car .....maybe you should PM paskey16 as he was looking to change his?

Only the inner bit comes out this reaches up to the base of the air con control unit
