Hello care nut, I have a problem in the interior of my E-Class. I never really let this one get dirty, so that the cleaning consisted only of dust wipes or with a foggy household microfibre cloth. Afterwards the Jeffs Werkstat Satin Prot was applied with a pad, let in a few minutes and wiped with a microfibre cloth (by Hygi). This procedure was every few weeks, maybe 1x a month, actually always when I used to the vacuum cleaner had to hold in. Basically too often I believe. The following problem: Since I only wiped dust or with a fog-wet cloth, I never really “cleaned”. Afterwards, however, always applied the plastic care Satin Prot, so that I cleaned up an ever thicker layer. Maybe I also took (beginner-typically) sometimes too much. In the cockpit I have much softly padded or foamed plastic made on leather optics. it a lot of structure (see picture) and around the switches and controls smooth “hard” plastic (see picture on the left). On the smooth plastic there are no problems, everything perfect, but on the “leather-like” plastic I have too much product. Looks optically good, but when I rub over it with a dry cloth or the flat hand, the care dissolves in small white crumbs. Sorry, I can’t describe it better. I don’t think that the satin prot itself the problem is that I have just too much of the product on the plastic by hardly proper cleaning but regular application of the Satin Prot. How to proceed now? I first wiped thoroughly with a really damp microfiber cloth, which has improved the whole thing, but it is not gone yet. On my next shopping list there is once the Surf City Garage Dash Away, which is a real interior cleaner and not only a care like the Satin Prot, as well as an APC cleaner, either from Stjärnagloss (hey, which is in stock again) or from Meguiars. I could also imagine that a small brush like this would be quite helpful for leather and convertible top with the structured plastic surface. How would you proceed? Rather the Dash Away or APC 1:10 (or even sharper?)? And with or without a brush? What do you have for experience with this soft plastic in leather look in the interior? ell Mercedes or even W/S 211 drivers who can write something about it? Thank you in advance !! Gruss DiSchu

Where can I get Opti-Coat 2.0 now?
Hello community, I’ve been looking for more than 30 minutes in the net and just can’t find a dealer who can sell me the Opti-Coat 2.0. Everywhere it’s sold out or is not offered anymore. Does any of you know a shop where I can order the product at the standard price? My car comes from the workshop this Wednesday and I want to polish it immediately afterwards and seal it afterwards.

Air freshener – do you use which – if yes which ?
Hello, I haven’t found anything concrete about the SuFu, so I ask you this. We have a dog who, of course, develops a certain own smell just when the coat is wet 😉 Now I am looking for an air-earther that does not smell too penetrant ( am not biased as far as the note is concerned ), and maybe not only available in gallons. Do you use one, if so which, how is dosed or used ? In the climate ? Spraying agent ? Rub in upholstery ? D anke & Gruss E.

Heavy Duty Foam Lance
Hello, I didn’t have a single hit on the SuFu. What do you think about the Heavy Duty Foam Lance? Edit: I’m looking for some quick laundry in between. Foaming, scratching, done. Sounds (too?) good.

Elaris Finn / Elaris Pio
Hello together, what I know so far: Elaris is a German company that has different vehicles manufactured by Chinese manufacturers for the German (and European?) Mark. The two interesting models are the small cars Pio and Finn. Both are purely electric, are indicated with an amazingly large range and are quite inexpensive. As dealers and workshops mainly the branches of Euromaster act. ler in Straubing/BY Elaris. Of this dealer is also the only Youtube driving report I could find. But that was pretty much practical information away from the pure manufacturer data and a few press photos. Has anyone already seen an Elaris Pio or Elaris Finn in the wild or even driven it? Would I be happy about any kind of experience report!

Experiences Delay in delivery Leasys or FCA
Good day, I had ordered a Fiat 500 electric unit as a long-term rental / leasing (duration: 13 months) about 3 months ago. As a delivery time 4 months without obligation was confirmed according to the manufacturer. Now I was informed that the production is only planned in September, the delivery time would therefore amount to at least 6 months. Is there any experience with Leasys or FCA here in the forum? Is there a free replacement car, so I know it from a colleague who has a VW ID3 g The contract contains the following: “Delivery periods depend on the availability of the vehicles and the respective production time of the manufacturer and cannot therefore be legally predicted. LEASYS is not liable for any delay in delivery. This does not apply to damages resulting from injury to life, body or health caused by a negligent breach of duty by LEASYS or a deliberate or negligent breach of duty by a statutory company. LEASYS is not liable if the damage would have occurred even if the delivery had been made in good time.” My previous status was that 6 weeks after the end of the non-binding delivery date, I can request the lessor to deliver in writing with a time limit of 2 weeks and then could assert further rights, such as damages or withdraw from the contract. Is this now excluded or is it permissible by the contract sig to exclude this? If yes, this would mean that they could deliver me the car someday further away, distant future and I would have to take it off. Thank you already in advance. With kind regards br.an

Air conditioning performance at Fiat Panda
Hello, I have a question about the air conditioning at Fiat Panda. We have a Panda Dynamic 1.2 with manual climate. Last year we used it only sporadically. Because of the lubrication we ran it twice a month 5-10 min. and switched off 5min before the end of the journey and let the ventilation continue. Over Pentecost we were away and used the climate there for some time longer. Although the climate is already cool, but cold feet or the like are not available… I wanted to Do you know how your experience with Panda’s climate performance is? Does it create a real cold? Should I notice this at the next service? Thank you in advance

General questions about truck usage
Hello, I did the CE driver’s license in 1998 and would like to try as a professional driver. I have already searched various search engines and websites but found nothing meaningful. Now I would like to try it here. Here a few questions that came to mind: 1. Driving and rest periods Why, Why, Why is it clear to me but how do the penalties look if I don’t stick to them? 2. Total weight allowed I let myself say that I have 3% of the load Is that true? If so, what about penalties? 3. Top speeds BAB 80 Landstrasse 60 Innerorts 50 Wasn’t there even one thing where you were allowed to drive 70 inside when it was signposted? I would like to thank you in advance for Euro help. MfG dotterswelt 👿

Problems with D2866 KFG – grey/white qualm in partial load operation
Hello together, in my MAN SX have installed a MAN row-six D2866 KFG with 345 KW. When starting and in partial load operation it is really grey/white and runs a little rough. As soon as load is on and the turbo pressure builds up the combustion seems to be optimal – engine runs round and the smoke is gone. Now only a slightly brownish flag comes out of the exhaust. If you hang the affected block at the pump is also the smoke in the stand away. The engine has almost 100tkm on the uh r, at 55 tkm all 6 barrel bushings and pistons as well as 2 cylinder heads were replaced. Both the nozzles and the injection pump have already been replaced. Could now only imagine that in the affected 6th block the piston rings are broken. Would be happy to get helpful tips. Thanks, Gruss Chriatian
