Engine Family:
Maserati V6 Twin-Turbo (likely based on Ferrari-derived architecture for earlier generations, or FCA Pentastar derivative for later ones, depending on the specific Quattroporte generation this manual applies to. The V6 nomenclature suggests a performance-oriented V6.)
Displacement 2.0L:
Approximately 2.0 Liters (This displacement is highly unusual for a Maserati Quattroporte V6. It's possible this refers to a specific variant or a typo, as Maserati V6s typically start around 3.0L. If accurate, it would suggest a highly specialized or early model.)
Displacement 2.8L:
Approximately 2.8 Liters (Similar to the 2.0L, a 2.8L V6 is also atypical for Quattroporte models which are usually 3.0L V6 or larger V8. This could indicate a specific market variant or an older generation's engine option, though less common than 3.0L+.)
Horsepower Range:
Varies by year and specific engine tune; typically 300-450+ HP for performance V6s of this era.
Torque Range:
Varies by year and specific engine tune; typically 300-450+ lb-ft for performance V6s.
Injection Type:
Direct Injection / Multi-point Fuel Injection (depending on generation)
Fuel Type:
Premium Unleaded Gasoline (91 Octane or higher recommended)
Turbo Configuration:
Twin-turbocharged (common for Maserati V6 engines)
Crash Test Ratings:
Not typically tested by NHTSA or IIHS in all markets; manufacturer claims focus on structural integrity and advanced safety features.
Active Safety:
ABS, EBD, Traction Control, Stability Control, Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS) such as Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Keeping Assist, Blind Spot Monitoring (depending on trim and year)
Passive Safety:
Multiple Airbags (front, side, curtain), High-strength Steel Body Structure, Crumple Zones
Infotainment System:
Maserati Touch Control (MTC) system, often with an 8.4-inch touchscreen, integrating navigation, audio, climate control, and vehicle settings. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility may be present depending on the model year.
Adas Features:
Availability of Adaptive Cruise Control, Autonomous Emergency Braking, Blind Spot Monitoring, Lane Departure Warning/Assist, Surround View Camera System (depending on trim and year).
Connectivity Options:
Bluetooth, USB ports, optional Wi-Fi hotspot.
Oil Change Interval:
Typically 10,000 miles or 12 months, whichever comes first (refer to manual for exact specification).
Major Service Interval:
Often around 30,000 miles or 3 years, involving more comprehensive checks and replacements (e.g., spark plugs, fluids).
Engine Oil:
Full Synthetic SAE 0W-30 or 0W-40 API SN/ACEA C3 compliant (specific viscosity and approval codes are critical and found in the manual). Maserati Genuine Oil or equivalent. Example: Shell Helix Ultra ECT C3 0W-30.
Coolant:
Ethylene glycol-based antifreeze, silicate-free, with corrosion inhibitors. Maserati Genuine Coolant or equivalent (e.g., Mopar MS-9769 or similar specification, typically purple or blue).
Transmission Fluid:
Specific ATF for ZF 8-speed transmission (e.g., ZF Lifeguard 8). Crucial to use the correct, approved fluid for longevity and performance.
Brake Fluid:
DOT 4 LV (Low Viscosity) or DOT 4+ recommended for ABS and ESP systems. Maserati Genuine Brake Fluid or equivalent.
Common Concerns:
Turbocharger issues (oil seals, wastegate actuation), exhaust manifold cracks, suspension component wear (especially air springs if equipped), infotainment system glitches, door handle issues (older generations), potential for oil leaks from various seals.
Troubleshooting Focus:
The manual will be invaluable for diagnosing these common concerns due to its detailed diagnostic procedures and component-specific repair instructions.
Brand History:
Maserati has a long and storied history in motorsport and luxury grand touring cars, known for performance, Italian design, and exclusivity.
Quattroporte Generations:
The Quattroporte has evolved through multiple generations since its inception in the 1960s, each reflecting the automotive design and technology of its era, consistently positioned as a flagship luxury performance sedan.
Manufacturing Location:
Likely Italy (e.g., Grugliasco, Turin or Modena)
