  • 1.0 MPI ALL runs very unevenly

    Good morning I have a problem with the idle running of my 1.0 MPI ALL with 50 HP of ́ 99. When I turn it on for the first time on the day (whether in the morning cold or at noon or in the evening) it sometimes runs very unevenly (more recently) and runs out. Especially when braking at the traffic lights or when driving in (have servo). I turn it off and wait for something e.g. when shopping, often goes again. But not always. Sometimes I also have to turn it on and off. He gets fuel quite normal and consumes no more. Passage is normal and he also manages his 150-160 on the track when it has to be and he has time. New are (since ~ 2000 km): – spark plugs – runner -finger (since 10 tkm), were still IO at the look – LukeFi – fuel filter – interior filter (he has to do with it no more). – coolant sensor, original (since ~ 8000 km) – Drosselklappe was expanded and completely quieted?

  • V60 polestar engineered braking problems

    Did someone already have similar problems with the Brembo brake system of the V60 polestar engineed??? On the subject: Have the V60 since July 20 and relatively fast the problems (only) appeared on the front axle. When braking down from about 150 -170 km/h, the car vibrated on the front axle and also on the steering wheel. To better understand, it should be said that the brake pressure was already neat, but not starting in the area of the ABS. The visual test showed clear black “sliding” on the disks. These did not disappear completely, however, became again less. However, the problem occurred again and again, so that the car was then introduced to the workshop. The discs were no longer round after measurement! Result after some discussions & test drives: New disks and coverings!! After proper drive-in time the same problems occurred again. You can certainly imagine that my confidence in this so-called “performance” brake is no longer the best! Now the discs are exchanged again with coverings! Cost point after each exchange of about 3200,00 EUR. Of course, I did not explain the number of brakes here.

  • Buy or not as a first vehicle?

    Happy news, and hello to the community! I wanted to ask if this is worth it/returns as the first car to buy a Volvo 850. My father had a 850, unfortunately a Monday car. Has only made a bitch now he has a C70 of the first series (2.0T 163PS manuall). My mother has a 850 for 4-5 years, and you and I love this car and appreciate its reliability. The C70 is a nice part, but for me absolutely nothing. I absolutely want the combination, which is unusual for my 20 years, as I see everywhere. Since I am from my point of view very reasonable and strangely totally past the “gasser gene”, how would that behave with a T-5R? How do you get there the maintenance costs regarding the insurance? Will this be very bad? The one of my mother as 2.5l 10V 144PS costs my father only 37€/month. Does the T-5R have special masks? So from 100€ insurance would be painful, but what do you not do for an elch! With friendly greeting, Rene

  • Purchase advice Volvo 850 Stuttgart

    Hello, I’m looking for a Volvo station wagon… Since I find the nice, quite simple. Wouldn’t need the car every day, but already for every season, even in winter for the rides to the ski area, or longer rides. I would rather make short distances rather rare. So all in all I need the car for my leisure time. Found the following offer. Was previously available for 1400, jetz 1100. http://kleinanzeigen.ebay.de/…/1671155772-216-9598?ref=search Here are more pictures: http://img4web.com/g/9HT8W Would be cool if someone who has experience with the cars could tell me something about it. I think for my part that it is quite ok, even if he already has a good kilometer on it… Thank you! Greeting Lorenz

  • Slack noise while braking

    Hello, for a few weeks I’ve had a funny crack noise while braking, that I can’t get away. If I start early and then brake for the first time, it goes relatively loud KLACK. After that the noise is gone and won’t come for a long time. After a few kilometers on the highway and then again in the city traffic, it goes again KLACK at the red traffic light, afterwards, at the next brake it is gone again. I had the rear (I guess it comes from behind) brake blocks out and cleaned everything up. I thought it might be the spans that span the blocks, but it doesn’t seem to have been. Has someone had a similar experience, or does someone have a tip that might have to do with that? Could this possibly also have to do with the hand brake, which is also very funny when I pull it on when I’m driving. Greeting, Anton

  • Wide winter tyres

    Hello together, it is only now in the spring/summer, nevertheless I already think about which winter pellet are raised. In the SuFU I did not find anything suitable. To the choice stand 205/60/R16 or 225/55/R16, in the case on steel rims…. Basically I had so far always narrower winter tires on it than summer tires. But with the thick ship V70 I think, whether it is not more useful to raise identical tires to the summer tires (225/55/R16) Bzw. seems to me the idea, because these narrow bicycle tires (in relation) to it to pull…. The extra costs are snup, you don’t have to pay attention. What have you done for experiences? Is one also good with the 225ers through snow, rain, cold ?

  • Oil consumption on the first 10 Tkm

    Good morning, I had the first 11.000 km now run smoothly, ok exception a trailer at the map update. History. So I am very pleased with my V90 CC choice. Yesterday after a longer tour, I thought for the first time, look for the oil! Purely interested The electronic measurement yielded half of the beams, i.e. about 0.5 l on 10 Tkm. Can I live with it. On the other hand, it’s already damn long ago, that I had to refill oil. How high is the oil consumption with you? Is the oil consumption ok or too high? I’m curious about your experiences. Oh still a small anecdote, keep me strictly to the Volvo specifications and am looking for the Castrol Edge 0-20 almost desperate! No one has this stuff there either! No tanks have visited three, no hardware store and the Volvo dealer had already closed. Information, where the stuff should be found came directly from the Castrol homepage.

  • Civic, horn defective, which cable leads to horn???

    Hello, I have a problem where I can’t get any further. It’s about the Honda Civic, bj 93/94 from my father. With him the horn didn’t go there anymore I looked at it once, cables were totally corided and broken off under another auh. In addition, the owner of the BMW Relai had switched in between (nen Standart Relai). Now I have a problem, I have plus, the + from the horns, mass for horn runs over the screw on carroserie, but I have no signal cable from the horn, so what comes from the steering wheel. Where can I find this cable so that I can rebuild the circuit. I have looked around but can find nothing. I want to spare myself the steering wheel to expand, so where can I find this cable / unwind it? Thanks in the vorras, is urgent. mfg Gkiokan

  • Honda Civic EJ9 – What oil and price!

    Hello! I would like to ask two questions about my Honda Civic EJ9. In this case I would like to have the following things done. Oil change, changing the brake and clutch liquid and inspecting the air conditioning. My question would be at what price this would be possible?! I asked bnisher only at a workshop and there the prices were so estimated for oil change 52€. With the oil 5W30. The rest (climate, brakes and cooling liquid) should there almost 100€ cost. So together almost 150€ for the above known. Is that ok?! I ask because this would be my first inspection of this form for my Civic. I bought the good piece only in January. Would be nice to know if the oil mentioned is ok or if other oil would be better. CU + Thanks Steffen
