Removing the Throttle Body on Alfa Romeo 147

Model: Alfa Romeo 147 MK 1 - Years 2000-2010
Part: Throttle body

Remove the engine cover by unscrewing the fixing screws. Unscrew the intake duct at the junction and disconnect it. Next, remove the duct connection by unscrewing the three Allen screws. You will now see the throttle body: this is also secured by three Allen screws that you need to remove. Disconnect the lower duct connected to the throttle body, and finally remove it. To do this, proceed carefully by prising all around the body and lifting it from the limited space available. As you can see, this is theoretically a simple job, but it is made much more complex by the position of the body itself.

After restoring the correct pressures, you need to reset the warning light that has illuminated on the instrument cluster. To do this, locate the reset button on the lower central console. Press this button and hold it down for at least 3 seconds, after which the low pressure indication will turn off.
