  • Purchase of an Opel Antara

    Hello Opel _User, I’m looking forward to the purchase decision of an Opel Antara Cosmo. I’ve been working through the forum for several days. I’m a little unsure in my purchase decision. 1. High fuel consumption 2. Reliability 3. Is there a new model 2010 I like the FZ and the price that the dealer offered me is really attractive. < 30,000 I would have liked to hear from you the opinion. Greetings Harald

  • Oh, what a true word…

    ..that the mirror is writing http://www.spiegel.de/spiegel/0,1518,389688.html “…The decay began already in the eighties with a felt pen, the green edding 800. Those who paint the edge of a CD with it, it was said, improve the sound significantly. “The trigger for this nonsense was demonstrably a April joke,” says Thomas Sporer from the Fraunhofer Institute for Digital Media Technology in Ilmenau. “In truth, a CD, as long as one treats it with care, always sounds the same.” !!! ts add more !!! mfg carauDDiohans

  • How to check the level of the servo oil at Volvo V50 1.6 D 2010?

    Hi, I’ve been driving a V50 for a year and a few weeks ago I heard so tedious surren while driving. Maybe it’s normal, but I’d like to check the filling level of the servo oil, because maybe there’s not much in it anymore. After a long search I finally found the storage tank under the right headlight. Seems to be somehow part of the servo pump. But oh fright, when I unscrewed the lid, there was no trace rod integrated in the lid. I want to suck out the old oil and fill it up with new oil at some point. But how high? Everything is somehow not thought out by the car. Others have a nicely accessible reservoir with a knife. Does any of you have an idea? Greetings

  • Squeaking on the rear axle

    Servus, I’ve had really bad sounds on the rear axle since today, this morning on the way to Stuttgart there was nothing (about 80km from home) then when again 20 km drive, there was still nothing to hear, but after that we drove into the parking garage, it started to squeaky or what it is, you hear every floor shaft or curb. What do you think, silikonspray brings something? Volvo v50 bj 2004 km 229tkm

  • XC90 four wheel

    Hello I would have a question about the XC90. I have been offered a used one. EZ 06/06 but already model year 07. During the test drive I noticed that the front wheels have gone crazy. After I addressed the dealer on it he also said that there is something wrong. He is still clear. Now I am somewhat unsure. I thought that from the model year 2006 already the angular gearbox with the hardened gears is installed. Has someone experience with the angle g I don’t want to buy a car with which the four-wheeler fails every few months. Is there anything else to consider with the new model? At the moment I still fluctuate between the XC90 and a Toyota Landcruiser. Gruss Jens

  • V70 R instead of S40 T5 ???

    Hello, who sometimes takes a look at the S40II Forum, knows well that I am not really satisfied with my S40 T5 (MY07), so I have been looking for an alternative for a long time. In the conversation are BMW (because of rear drive, roughly up to M3) and Audi (RS4, but would have to wait a while longer), but the two brands are not really symphatic to me. Would like to stay with Volvo, but after many test drives only the V70R remains, which is surprisingly sportli The S40 T5 (although the difference is AWD/FWD) and is not as much bigger as you would expect. And optically it is a dream anyway. I first tested a machine and only a country road, since the “R”, which must be black in my opinion, is not to be found at every corner… Have now one with JG 2003 in mind, and what interests me above all are the following points: Does the HU 803 with Premium Sound reach the PS of the S40 (or even better) ? e the normal sound system ?) Can PDC be retrofitted ? Are the maintenance costs significantly higher (without verse / control) ? Are there with the model 2003 “children’s diseases” ? What about the quality of the clutch, which is clearly overwhelmed with the S40 T5? How pleasant is the speed-dependent servo? (was not on the AB) What else should I consider ??? Thank you in advance, $id

  • Purchase advice Volvo S60 2,4 Bj03

    Good evening, dear motor talkers. I found a Volvo S60 at Mobile and I also looked at it today. It’s: http://suchen.mobile.de/…/showDetails.html?… I have to say the car looks like licked from the outside and from the inside and up to a few small stone strokes at the front of the thruster I couldn’t find anything. Well, except that the windscreen wiper doesn’t work… But I think the fuse is broken because the wiper garkein life drawing The car was a leasing vehicle and looks very good for the age. At extra cost the dealer TüV AU gives me new and 12 months used car warranty as well as a working wiper. What do you think of the car? And what do you have to pay special attention to with Volvo? (weaknesses or known defects) Thank you and MfG Martin

  • B3 conversion 1.6 to 2.8

    Hello, have an old B3 bj.91 on which I very much hang! the car has installed a 1.6er mono-jettronic (or electric carburetor as it is sometimes called). goes quite well for its meanwhile 75 HP (5 over ori power thanks to small audio VSD instead of cat modification) only the thing should be really brought in. just because I still do this for my old master (who left me the car. i.e. he would really be happy about it if he gets his second spring) because a little bit of juice is supposed to be and also from the balance should be partly good – would I be for the 2.8 V6 from the B4. to reduce circumstances the fronti version. the 5 cylinder is unfortunately a bit more front-loading… cabling in the engine room keeps itself within limits with the 1.6er. the question is how does this look like with ECU. otherwise would be another alternative motor ne matter (proposals please… vll of the 16V fourzyli?) someone has already missed a B3 of another motor? of the further I search for a used thread over winter then (the conversion should come also in winter… first have to finish my Nissan) – would also exchange greetings for Weitec kit + money from the B3 driver + at the end of the picture ^^
