I meant to say - there's a small oil leak from the engine which was picked up on the last MOT but the garage said to monitor it. 

Also it has mopar wind deflectors for both passenger and drivers windows. 

Hi Guys

I've had my Delta since 2016 and I might be getting a car through work. Therefore my Delta will be surplus to requirements. I'll be sad to see it go as I really do like it. It's a 61 plate and it's done 65K miles. It's the 1.6L diesel with the tiptronic gearbox. It's got a reversing camera fitted along with an after market Pioneer Apple CarPlay head unit. The interior is the full leather interior and I've only ever had about 5 people in past since I've had it. I bought it with 18K on the clock, so I've put 47K on it. It's in generally great condition with a few little marks here and there. It's crazy efficient and I used to get over 65MPG when commuting too work in it. The grill has been replaced with a Momo design grill, so it's black rather than silver. The wheels were spray painted when I bought the car and they looked terrible, so I got them painted properly. It's been a few years since that was done and they could do with some attention. I have the locking wheel nut too. 

I've got two sets of keys and lots and lots of documentation about servicing, oil changes etc. It's been well looked after.  

However, the last month or so I've been getting an intermittent warning about 'Check transmission'. It's a red warning that come up on the dash but disappears a few seconds later. I took it to a local automatic transmission specialist who couldn't find a problem with it and they suggested that I took it to an auto electrician - which I did but who also can't find a problem. It flashes up on the dash and then disappears, it doesn't write a code to the ECU or anything, so it's proving quite hard to diagnose. 

All I can tell you is that in either auto or manual mode, it goes up and down the gears perfectly. There's no lurching or juddering. There's no clouds of black smoke coming out the back or noises or anything.   

Because of this fault, I can't really sell it on Auto Trader and if I did, the prices are between £3000 and £5500 - I'm looking at £1000 for it as I can't in good conscience ask for the full price. Perhaps buy it to strip it for spares?

I'm just putting feelers out at the moment. 

Is anyone interested or know anyone who might be?

I'm based just off J11 of the M6 in Staffordshire. 

Hi all

When diving my Delta S Momo Design 1.6 Multijet, on occasion when the revs are just under 2,000, there is a bit of a drop of for a fraction of a second. It feels like the engine is misfiring but like I say, only for a fraction of a second. It is more noticeable when going up hill. 

I've plugged in an ODB2 cable and connected it in MultiECUScan. Attached is the results of the injector correction graph, compared to my partners Delta SE 1.6 MultiJet (Auto). On my partners graph, the lines are much more uniform. 

Has anyone had a similar experience? Do I need to worry that the graphs from each vehicle do not match, considering the engines are identical?

Any advice would be appreciated. 

Cheers

Rich

I bought this https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/USB-cable-for-Triumph-Motorcycles-TuneECU-FTDI-FT232RL-Chip-OBD-II-KTM-Tune-ECU/162131241026?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649as my engine management light came on on my motorbike and on the off chance tried it in my Delta (1.6) and tried it with the demo copy of MultiECUScan and it worked. 

We had this problem on the Black Momo 'S' Delta. It turned out to be water in the light cluster. We removed it, heated up a metal rod and pierced the plastic and poured out the water.

Then got on eBay and found a replacement for £60 and fitted that when it arrived.

We'd both be interested in attending in our Delta's. One is a Momo 'S' which has just been Lancia branded (on the outside only at the moment) and an SR with the black Momo grill.

Just wanted to thank Nello for his instructions on how to replace the front grill and yes, I know this post is getting quite old now.

We've got two Delta's - a Volcanic Black Momo 'S' model and my white SR, both 1.6TD. I found a grill on eBay Italy but the guy wouldn't ship it to the UK for some reason. (He also ignored the messages that I sent him), so I got it shipped to a friend in Germany who kindly shipped it to us.

Yesterday we took the front bumper off the S and replaced it with the Lancia grill, then moved the Momo grill to my SR. The grill wasn't cheap, it was 199 Euro. Also the back Lancia badge was another 22 Euro.

The right hand side, underneath the car is a total pain in the arse because its got plastic screws which hold a cover in place. The rest of it was fairly simple. The first bumper took about an hour and a half as we were learning on the job, where as we did my SR in about half that time. I'm not convinced yet by the black grill on my SR, but it does look good on the S. Here's some pics of before and after.

I've got the 1.6L diesel SR auto and the 'e' is for Eco mode. Basically the gearbox tries to get into 6th gear as quickly as possible. Haven't left it in e for very long to see what effect it has on economy as its annoying!
