Alfa Romeo 147 Catalytic Converter (2000-2010)

The Alfa Romeo 147 catalytic converters vary depending on the engine type (petrol or diesel 1.6/1.9/2.0), Euro standard (3 or 4), and the presence of a DPF on diesel models post-2004. They are typically positioned under the seat or in the exhaust line and require specific mounting kits. Common fitments include diesel 1.9 JTD/JTDM engines (2000-2007, Euro 4 with integrated DPF) and petrol engines 1.6 i 16v and 2.0 16v Twin Spark (2000-2010, Euro 3/4).

OE (Original Equipment) references for Alfa Romeo 147 catalytic converters include several part numbers specific to diesel and petrol engines. For example, diesel 1.9 JTD engines have OE refs like 51780162, 51800537, while petrol 1.6 engines use 46823073 among others. Aftermarket equivalents also exist, but always ensure fit and quality for your specific Alfa 147 model.

For diesel models equipped with a DPF, regular regeneration is key to maintaining optimal function. This can be automatic via the vehicle’s ECU or forced by sustained driving on a motorway for about 30 minutes at high engine speeds (above 3000 rpm) and temperatures around 550-600°C. Use of additives in the fuel can help reduce deposits. Professional ecological cleaning services are also available for thorough maintenance. Signs of clogging include warning lights indicating partial or total blockage.

• Regular monthly regeneration recommended
• Use fuel additives formulated for DPF cleaning
• Seek professional cleaning if warning signs appear

Proper maintenance of the exhaust system extends the life of the catalytic converter and ensures compliance with emission standards.

The price for a new catalytic converter suitable for Alfa Romeo 147 typically ranges between 170€ and 280€, varying by model and engine type.

Compatibility is best confirmed by checking your engine code and vehicle identification number (VIN). Alfa Romeo 147 engines have specific codes (e.g., 939A7.000 for diesel 1.9). Verify the emission standard (Euro 3 or Euro 4) and whether a DPF is integrated. Always consult detailed technical catalogs or contact suppliers for confirmation before purchase to ensure correct fit and compliance.

In most cases, only the catalytic converter needs replacement when faulty or clogged. The Alfa Romeo 147 catalytic converter is a distinct component within the exhaust system that specifically handles emissions treatment. Other parts like mufflers, silencers, or turbo components are separate and not typically replaced simultaneously. Focus on the catalytic converter that matches your model’s engine and emission standard.

Technical documentation and installation manuals for Alfa Romeo 147 catalytic converters are usually available through your supplier or manufacturer’s professional portal. Providing your vehicle VIN or engine code helps in obtaining exact fitment data and sensor positioning. Expert technical support by email or phone is recommended for installation assistance to ensure correct assembly and system performance.

Always follow manufacturer instructions to maintain compliance with emission regulations and to protect your vehicle's engine and exhaust system.
