Welcome to the Owner's Manual for the 166, an executive sedan produced from 1998 to 2007. Known for its stylish Italian design, powerful V6 engines, and sophisticated chassis tuning, the 166 offered a premium driving experience, competing with established European luxury marques. This model, particularly the facelifted versions from 2003 onwards, embodies dedication to performance and elegance, featuring a comfortable and luxurious interior, advanced safety systems, and available Q4 all-wheel drive. Its design, attributed to Leonardo Fioravanti, is celebrated for its timeless appeal, making the 166 a distinctive choice in its segment.
This manual provides essential information for operating and maintaining your 166. It covers a comprehensive range of topics including instrument panel functions, climate control, audio systems, lighting, and basic user-maintainable checks. You will find guidance on operational procedures, fluid level checks, and tire inflation. While it offers an overview of vehicle systems such as the engine, transmission, brakes, and electrical components, this Owner's Manual focuses on user-level information and troubleshooting for common warning lights, and does not include detailed mechanical repair procedures.
This is the complete and original owner manual for Alfa Romeo's 166 model. The manual describes the "facelift" version but is also very suitable for the earlier version of the car.
