Not bad.
I've had my fair share of little niggles (Italian character I guess), servicing it is expensive and I still hate the gearbox.
But other than that it's been good to me. The best thing by far is the handling/comfort balance (almost) top of the class.

It is pretty common these days that ECU keeps track of two different values: scheduled service deadline and engine oil deterioration. Both need resetting, if the oil is changed during regular service.
But the fact that Alfa uses the same warning light for low oil pressure and contaminated oil... I guess this can only be called Italian humor.
Very good!
I found it strange too, as if you were resetting one why not reset the other too?
To be honest, I've been very unlucky with the official Alfa Romeo dealers I've visited because it's not the first time that I've had problems with them...
Lack of charisma can be fatal.
