  • Motor brake by means of a shift paddle?

    Hello everyone. I’ve had a Si4 for a few days. I’ve been on the road with a Mercedes CLK for a long time, which I’ve only given me a wistfully. I’m all the more grateful that the Evoque meets my expectations so much. I had planned to drive more quietly, and in fact the new car gives me a pleasant calmness. Unfortunately, there’s no hand-operated petrol engine; I had my hope set on the switch-buttons, but it doesn’t seem to get into lower gears really quickly, for example, to brake with the engine. I’d like to understand what the car is doing when I pull on the left paddle; there seems to be something like a short idle moment before the new gear grabs. Can anyone explain that to me?

  • FZR 1000 engine damage

    Hello guys, I’m new here and I need your help!!! I probably have an engine damage with my 1000 FZR Bj. 89. Had it not run for a few weeks and when I had brought it back to run after several attempts, super much white smoke came out of the exhaust, which smelled like oil. The cooling water level also remained constant, but became quite hot. Now I am expanding the engine and I have also discovered a lot of oil on the spark plugs. Will the cylinder head seal be, will you? Can you give me now perhaps a few tips on how I can best make myself to the engine. What I should renew, check and consider. Where do I get the spare parts best? Thank you

  • Experience with the new…

    Hello, I picked up my Adam last week Friday. My joy about my Adam picked up on Friday took only so long until I had to find out that the air conditioning doesn’t work! And that with a new car! After I had checked in the workshop whether the air conditioning actually doesn’t work, or I made a service error, I now have an appointment to repair next week. Tuesday afternoon, Wednesday afternoon back. How do I get to work? Free car rental? NO!!! I’m supposed to pay a rental car. Hello, is it my fault that the Adam has to go to the workshop right now? I’m very angry! Have a new car that doesn’t work properly and should pay my own car rental, or see how I get to work. “Great” service Opel! Then I also had to realize that the Multicolor LED light package doesn’t work! Well, I can complain on Tuesday. Very annoying, let’s see what comes to me. Greeting Willow

  • SL 350 – Buy or not?

    Hello together – I’m new here and have a question (clear, otherwise I wouldn’t be here)… and please don’t hit it, because the topic was certainly already a thousand times. Come actually from the Porsche world and wanted to treat me to a somewhat newer one. Model 996, because predecessors and successors were too expensive. But the screwdriver of my trust talked me out successfully, because of the most serious production defects. I see the R230 as the only affordable and also attractive alternative to the Porsche. I already had a 500 year in 1993 tested (without a purchase intention, because too old and too many kilometers) and was really very enthusiastic. Now I was offered a very well-kept SL 350 from the first hand from the MB center, good equipment (only panoramic roof is missing something, but I think it is extremely nice, but you can probably also do without it), EZ 2009, 21,000 kilometers, 7G. I know the very serious predecessor, but can not speak to him at the moment ́, because I would like to have neutral answers. Long talk, short meaning: I have a lot here in the forum and elsewhere, but also about a lot of gear and some problems.

  • A few questions about loading pressure…

    Hi, everybody. I’ve been discussing a lot of times, but I still have a few special questions for the specialists among you. I’ve installed my Auto Gauge LDA on the WE and I’ve been testing it a little bit. I noticed that the charging pressure is 0.2 bar higher when it’s very warm outside. At 15C I’ve got 1.45 bar and held 1.35 bar in the overboost. But at 28C I’m driving in the overboost 1.65 bar and held 1.5 bar. I also noticed that the charging pressure is getting higher and higher the gear is in place. So 1.2,3 gear is a little less charging pressure. I have the most loading pressure when speeding through in the 6th gear. Furthermore, when I speed through, I see the charging pressure again and again easily controlled. (the needle of the LDA trembles easily, so about 1-2mm) Is this also so with you? Many times a video could be put in the 3,4.5 or 6th gear. So I can compare the course. The LDA would be super of you.

  • Charging pressure okay?

    moin, had read out a few values with horn yesterday, but still wait for the logs. what I noticed before: 0.6bar charging pressure and o,7 in the overboost is that in order? doesn’t seem to me very much! nm are even more there:251nm lmm: wait for results, but the value rises very slowly and sluggishly. when should the max value lie? his colleague also said that somehow the turbobumms are missing. pulls more like a vacuum cleaner than a turbo.Have heard of the suv once when you pull it off. suv broken? when the engine is cold, he jerks as if he were running on 3 pötten. have also increased oil consumption. but have consequential damages of false ignition candles? mfg aemkeii

  • TT engine too hot? Or is that normal?

    Hello, Have a question about my water temperature.. If I let my engine run in the stand it comes up between 90 and 110 degrees. At stop&go it is at just before 120 degrees. That can’t be normal. The engine is sitting in the gulf three, but it can’t be there, can it? The water slugs all have about the same temp. Only the one that goes down into the cooler is a bit warmer than the one that goes out of the top. At the balance tank the small hose, there comes water out, too. Is also quite hot. What can this be on? So the water pump will probably be. Thanks already for plenty of answers. MFG. Charly

  • WHAT IS HERE LOS???! Or: How do I break impact wrench nuts on the Legacy rear axle…

    Hello together, yes the chrome vanadium steel. After my turbo saddles are now beamed and varnished (VA) and only a few spare parts are missing, I thought, come, let the rear axles disassemble from the Legacy Turbo. Just for straightening and so on. I don’t think anything bosses. Impact wrench taken 19er nut and give it. Well -taktakak – nix geht. Is everything lazy. OK, rust releaser. Dump and coffee meanwhile. Again – 10 seconds long – a blow – shatters me the Proxxon nut. No matter, shit on it, get away with it, want anyway more noble. Well, and now comes: Here comes the Gedore nut for impact wrench unpacked. Full solder on the screw ridden – Bam – crack – NUSS broken, not the assi screw. And the end of the song? I grinches right, the sow. picture in the attachment. What am I shocked about holding the handbrake?

  • How do other road users react to you as Dacia drivers?

    Have a nice afternoon! I don’t drive a Dacia myself, but I was allowed to borrow from a car dealer last week as a rental car. I have to say, for the price he did not drive badly. I notice a lot that some road users have taken a look at me “You poor sausage, you can’t afford a real car”. When I wanted to spray the car with the steam radiator, another driver told me that I didn’t need to wash the Dacia because it won’t be a car. Until then, Ocean Driver
