  • Birthday inspection (30,000) for V 70

    Hi, because my V 70 D 5 (185 hp) has become a year old today, I gave him an inspection at KM 30.450. I drove him to the workshop almost on time at 8 o’clock at the “Friendly” in Dorsten. First I discussed with the master what I wanted to do in addition: clean the brake calipers and then mount the winter bikes, maintain higher xenon adjustment and change window seal at the back left. After a coffee I got a uf set a tyre stack and watched the fitter at work, was really instructive. In addition to the normal maintenance scope, the rear exhaust clamp was rusted and repainted. Otherwise, the underbody including axles etc. simply looked great, not to recognize a spark of flying rust (I am used to from the Toyota Land Cruiser completely differently, since after a winter everything was rusty). The rear window seal then changed the master together with the fitter. At about 10 o’clock the inspection was finished with a test drive and the car was washed. At 11 o’clock I was able to start the return trip. Costs (without VAT !!): – Wage : 142,50 € – Filter insert: 12,49 – Seal : 1,19 – Multi Filter : 50,85 – Waste oil disposal : 14,30 Complete with VAT : 256,74 € plus oil delivered (Alpin 0W-30 Longlife II A5/B5) 46,60 € (ohn) e VAT.) I think that this price is probably quite ok. Otherwise the moose is absolutely free of clapping and crackling and still looks like load new. Greetings, cruiserland

  • question to the learned, driven over bordstone, now worry about the track

    just come from the bakery and there my neighbour happily waving past me. I then also gesticulated wildly back and took the curb with the rear wheel. was at a parking bay, so completely over. to luck with us in the play road at speed 20 (yes, you can not drive 20). the same happened to me before 2 weeks with the front axle, this had to be adjusted then. now my question: is the rear axle less sensitive than the front axle or should I go back to being friendly to be presumptuous? johannes also I make mistakes

  • Where is the marking of the curtain airbag located?

    Hello all, I have the Opel Zafira Life Selection completely new. It should be equipped with curtain airbags for the 2nd and 3rd row of seats. However, there is nowhere to be found a marking. Now I am worried that this airbag was not installed at all. Is this airbag marked and if so, where? I hope someone can help me. Greeting, Kabuer

  • Questions about Quickheat

    Hello Since I’m not standing in a garage/carport I think about the heating power (grad now in winter). Primarily, I’m not interested in having high-quality heat, but rather to defrost the windows quickly and to prevent the fogging at low temperatures. At the moment, I’m very spoiled with my front disc heater. I should also have an electric heater in my Mondeo, but I don’t notice anything about it. So on all PSA PampersbombersL What’s the matter with you?

  • Opel Zafira Life steering wheel heater

    Hello together; What bothers me at the moment is that the Zafira Life is currently not available with steering wheel heater. The smallest Opel has this almost as standard! I know that the Opel steering wheel and the Zafira Life steering wheel are installed by PSA on the other models. Does anyone know if this will be changed soon? Especially in winter I don’t want to miss it! Thanks in advance!

  • Luggage storage for Citroen Spacetourer / Peugeot Traveller / Toyota Proace Verso

    Hi, I would like to start a short survey, which experiences you, i.e. all the one Citroen Spacetourer, Peugeot Traveller or Toyota Proace Verson have made their own, with the availability / installation of the luggage retention set. In the operating instructions (of Citroen) this is listed as “retention set for high load” (see page 116f. in the version up to 01/2017 or page 106 in the current version). orderly fixtures on the roof sky (behind each row of seats) are actually part of the normal scope of delivery. In any case, it is in the operating instructions, in which there are not the usual restrictions “depending on version” or “as far as your vehicle is equipped with it” exactly for this net. My PPE dealer has long decorated himself and repeatedly referred to the accessories catalog, after this net (still) is not available. After several requests he has explained that it is n This net is not part of the original scope of delivery because it is not listed in the price list. I think that this is a mere claim of protection. I expect that a product can do everything that is provided for in the operating instructions, unless this is expressly excluded elsewhere. The other load securing devices (such as the lashing eyes) were closed. Also part of the scope of delivery, even if these were not listed separately in the price list. In any case, a price list does not serve the comprehensive presentation of the scope of delivery, but the (up-)prices for things that are not included in the scope of delivery. The fact that this net can be delivered and installed without reservation as part of the scope of delivery shows the example of our co-forist:https://www.motor-talk.de/…etourer-paar-fragen-t6242589.html?… Mich w I would now be interested in what experiences you have had. I will at any rate stick to the matter and next turn to PSA Germany, after I don’t get any further at my PSA branch.

  • TÜV ASU badge not received (Ez 2006) V70

    Hello people, after my moose was first registered 3 years ago, is due in March 2009 TÜV and ASU. With such a great car, barely 3 years old, yes no reason to worry. But it started well – a Fzg with the key number (0444) should not have been allowed in 2006 at all, since for all from 1.1.06 Euro 4 is prescribed. After the whole TÜV team had dealt with the problem and me the comments (call the KBA, he would have never admitted (The dealer with whom I bought the car has meanwhile filed for insolvency) it was found that on the EEC conformity certificate (great word) an exemption is registered. Puuhh. Then it finally went to the car, starting with the ASU – OBD plug in, ah what we have there, a mistake has been done so the topic has already been read out. : P0 571 Tempomat brake switch ies A and under : “Emission-relevant errors” booked Why this runs under exhaust gas, nobody could explain to me, the guys also did not want to, because the system only because of the error refused the plaque. Everything else, which is usually so tested, was o.B. well, Euro 75.– paid, follow-up will then also cost again (+ every time 20 km easy) Before I go now, the question to the specialists – what can this be ? Sensor at the brake pedal ? Problem with afterwards in built diesel particle filter ? Had only 1x, so about 6 weeks ago, an error message in BC (BAS – maintenance required), which however again evaporated by itself. Greeting Edgar – grateful for assistance

  • Cheap tuning at Ebay?

    Good evening, soon my XC60 will be delivered. I decided for the slightly weaker diesel version, because I would not be willing to pay for a few PS more about 1.700 € more. Now I’m looking for a few ways to increase the performance … on the one hand there is Heico … but now I’ve come across a tuning for 89€ for + 40 PS + 65 NM at ebay. So every common sense says … DOESN’T GO … but did any of you have experiences with it? Thanks and Dear greeting, Garf

  • Custom Tips / Help Volvo S 60 Bi fuel Built 2007

    Moin Volvo- (and above all: natural gas species) species, I have problems with my S 60 Bi-Fuel Automatic: It went off to the intersection while rolling, throttle valve cleaned, runs again. Idle is very low, so it almost runs out, despite new candles and pressure set at the pressure reducer. Now sporadically the engine lamp goes on. When driving I don’t notice anything at all. The Volvo lashes well and runs well. One small thing: it jerks when “cruising” (speed between 1700 and 200) 0 Tempo 70-100) I’ve been around the Volvo Workshops here (there are only two!) and they all seem somehow helpless… The fault memory does not show any error, so the computer will turn off the engine lamp again and well! My S 60 is a Frenchman from Belgium and is equipped with an NECAM natural gas system from factory. If someone has had the same problems and can give me tips or call a competent natural gas vehicle workshop (what a word) in the Umk Reis Mannheim / Karlsruhe / Waghäusel? Merci Greetings from Nordbaden SAKBM

  • Steel wheels ET 52,5 – legal?

    Servas! As is well known, our “small elk” builds up on the P1X(x) platform. Of course, as a suspension dispenser, the Focus can be mentioned. My tire cap (one that seems to be customer-oriented) called me today and said that it would reach 15″ steel rims with new tires in my desired size, for just under 290 EUR (brand tires). However(!) the ET is not 46 as usual with Volvo (between 43 and 46 is normal with the front drive volvos) but 52.5. ET 52.5 also have my A Faithful rims, original Volvo rims. It is clear that the ET is working with me (I hope so). I could not see anywhere in my documents whether 15″ 6Js would be allowed with me or not. Would be nicer, of course, because the extra charge for ET46 is around 120 EUR! Scar diameter and hole circle are the same with Focus II. As with the Mondeo… Does anyone know about this? That I could pull up, is clear. Only if I can drive the LEGAL??? Greetings and thanks already in advance DDD
