Re: Milano Rumble

"I' ve often noted a funny rumbling noise which affects my 2 transaxle
Alfas
('88 Milano Verde and '83 GTV6).  When the car has been parked for a few
minutes and I start it up again, I hear what can only be described as a
rumble
for about 20 seconds that then fades away.  It sounds like its coming
from the
rear.  It doesn't happen after being parked overnight.  Only when parked
for a
few minutes.

Any ideas what it is? "

Tony, 

I get the same thing you describe with my 85'GTV6.  I have always
believed it has something to do with the vapor recover system, as maybe
the tank being situated over the rear brakes/exhaust temporarily heats
gas/gasses and hence rumbling. Indigestion i guess....

My 2cents,
