Thanks for the videos! I use this one as a reference. FYI coming from the drift world you can def jack up a Quattroporte from the front center subframe to lift the entire front end. Yours looks similar. Albeit I went a little offset to the side near the boxed portion of the lower A-arm. For some reason the Maserati subframe seems a bit skinny weakish (compared to a G35/350 or BMW even). You can also raise it up by the rear diff. Don’t be scurred

One way to help stop the drip from the filter is to use gel coated paper mixing cups for fiberglass repair or a super large slurpee paper cup.

It seems like these cars are tricky to work on but not necessarily any worse than any comparable sports car. Longitudinal engine + long hood is a plus too. I’d imagine a lot of jobs on these motors are much easier than working on a transverse motor where everything is either in the wheel well or in the firewall.

No clutch if you don[t get an older Maserati 4200 or a Granturismo with MC shift (F1 transmission style.). The ZF automatic transmission is on the majority of Maserati Granturismo cars. I have had both models and the 4200 is expensive to maintain. I kept my 2008 Granturismo; currently have 52K miles on it. The 4200 got too needy with only 39K miles when I traded it for the Granturismo; I got $10K for the trade in.

You can jack the rear on the differential housing. That also holds true for BMWs. I don't know why they make the housing sturdy enough to support half the weight on the car. There is a guy up above in the comments that says to do it this way and to be confident and not scared. I was a little nervous doing it to the BMW but it worked out, I've not tried it with the Maserati. How to jack up these cars and then use jack stands seems to be a popular question but my googling yielded little answers. It seems that for the Maserati the answer is: front: use the normal jack point for the jack, then put the jack stand on the pivoting lower control arm. rear: Jack on the differential and then use the jack stands on the normal jack points. The guys in this video did the front as I just described but they didn't explain it. Since you're putting half the weight on the car on the jack stand you need to be confident that you're getting it right. I was not able to tell clearly enough from this video where to put the jack stand, so it'll just be me with my legs under the car supported only by a hydraulic jack (just kidding, but not really).

My 2016 GT was telling me the 2 yr warranty (25k miles) is due when I was into my lease for a year and half and had less than 12500 miles. Apparently, it's either two years or 25k miles, whichever comes first. So if the car has been sitting on the lot for a long time, the new owner may hit the 2 year service way sooner depending on how long the car was sitting on the lot. The dealer decided to the full 12k service and partial items (whatever looked bad) from the 25k service list and made a note on the car's service maintenance log. It cost me about $900. I know for sure the timing belt was left out for the next round....

Great video. Now I know why it costs so much to have a car like that one to be serviced at a shop. Give me a 60’s car to do maintenance on. I always hate it when there is one bolt that won’t let you undo or you get all done and you have extra parts laying around. The neighbors don’t mind you revving your engine?

Mine was reliable until the battery got weak and left me stranded; I always have it on a CTEK battery charger. I replaced that battery 2 weeks later with an an Odyssey AGM. I need to do this major service now and while I am at it replace the alternator and during this time it needs new gaskets on the valve covers as it is dripping oil. My 2008 GT has 52K miles on it.
