Hello, I bought a Folia-Tec brake caliper paint now. It says that you have to wait 2 hours before you can mount the bike again. But honestly I don’t want to wait 2 hours. How are your experiences … can you mount the bike again after 10 minutes? Thank you.

Power’s gone
Hello, my 460 Turbo makes again mucken: At lower speeds everything is relatively normal, but from 140 km/h the power is completely missing. The engine “capsulates” the power – you give full throttle, but nothing happens anymore (even switching back doesn’t bring anything). At the same time the engine jerks (as with ignition stops). From time to time it is also “first” at 160 km/h. Overall the engine runs extremely restless in the stand or even in idle mode. In addition, it smells, almost like when oil burns with it. could the problem be there? Did someone ever have a similar problem? Greetings, Anja

RTI TMC problems
Hello, now I have read all TMC-Postings here and unfortunately I am still not further … so I have to get it myself: Have a 99er RTI (CD-Version and TMC capable). Unfortunately, the good piece does not find a TMC-Sender. Have a second car with a Blaupunkt-Navi and that finds at the same location various transmitters. Various texts here speak of an extra antenna. Where can I find this and where is it connected to the Navi-Unit? I have another question: In the sky of my S80 I have such a cover plastic under which there is a cable with a green multi-pole plug. What else should you connect? Another antenna for ….. ? Thank you for your answers … Janos

That’s what they should dare to do with Audi.
Aaargh! I’m sorry for my short-term anger, but I’m starting to get fat, as the German automobile press is doing against imported manufacturers with constant subliminal stinging, especially when manufacturers are still delivering very good products (such as Volvo). Latest case: current ams (issue 12/03, page 92). Quotation “Finally, their [Swedish] reputation is already quite hollowed out when you look at it more closely. In my opinion, manufacturers such as Renault are in fact able to shift the image of the security image in my mind by strategically positioning (and timing with NCAP tests) of vehicles exclusively designed for European safety tests. Of course, for me, the effective safety elements in series vehicles also primarily count, but also It is not to be forgotten that new security concepts such as some of the ones installed in the SCC are being developed. Security research is only being promoted by such studies. And at this point, someone from ams would like to call me a similarly groundbreaking safety study like the SCC from a competing manufacturer over the past 2 years. Anyway, to get back to the title of this article, I doubt that the ams ever had such a safety study. It would publish a sentence about a brand like Audi, even if it would be as (un)appropriate as in this case with Volvo.

Mazda 323 BJ, ABS and TCS lamps light up (but they work occasionally)
Hello guys, I’m currently driving a Mazda 323 BJ (1998), 1.5l. The problem: the ABS and TCS lamps have been burning for a little more than 1.5 years. The problem has been dealt with many times here, but none of the solutions have helped me so far. Maybe there are new insights in the meantime. As I said, ABS and TCS lamps light up. If I start the engine and roll in the stand gas and “drive” in the stand gas, then the lamps are out. The TCS works, you can see nicely with ice and snow. I’m going through the city and the lights are going on and ABS / TCS are not working. Other phenomenon: I drive through the city and the lights are shining. During the ride (e.g. at 30 km/h) I turn off the engine and restart it. The lamps go off and ABS / TCS work completely normal… until the engine is switched off again. And if you don’t even expect the lamps to go off like this, it happens maybe 3 times a year, so it’s more the exception. Mazda Werkstatt and Bosh Service have already read out the error (multiple…) and said that the control unit (2200 Euro) or at least the hydro generator (750 Euro) is defective. I can’t imagine it, but it works, if you turn off the engine for a short time during the ride… I sprayed the small, narrow plug from the control unit with contact spray, didn’t do anything. I jammed the battery for a whole day, didn’t break anything. t. I replaced the fuse, also unsuccessful. Maybe one or the other recognizes the usage here: January 2009: battery replaced (against a new and stronger one with approx. 65 Wh, standard are 40, I think). July 2009: ABS and TCS shine uniquely. I stopped and turned off the engine and left it new. Problem was gone. September 2009: brake pads rear renewed September 2009: new winter tires bought. Since then (summer tires had gone off) September 20 09: Review & TÜV made, no problems found about from October / November 2009: ABS / TCS light up permanently, as described above Does someone know (new) solutions? (Thanks for reading, it has become a lot. )

How to reseal?
Moin people! I recently sealed my car. But I noticed 2 days later, at the first laundry that the Beading is not as great as in many other areas of the car. I probably did not apply the sealing carefully enough at these places. The water runs off super, only not as fast and beautiful as at other places. Therefore my question, what to do if I want to seal over it again ? Must I degrease before with a mixture of IPA, or dimply it polish, or simply on it with the seal (vehicle is clean of course ^^ ). LG

Polishing and growing beginner question
Hello. I want to polish and grow my car. Ask a few questions. I have the Sonax Xtreme Polish + Wax 2. Can I use the Meguiars Ultimate Paste Wax after treatment with the Sonax or not? After polishing and growing, what shampoo and SnowFoam can I use so that the Wax is not “attached”? Thank you for your support.

Which drying cloth by Liquid Elements
Hello together, after having seen and read several tests, I have now decided for microfiber dryers. The choice has fallen on the Silverback of Liquid Elements. In addition to two different sizes (XL I want to use for the paint, the small version for the rims) there are now also two versions. Once the normal version with 1200GSM for 14.90 Euro for the XL version and once as light version with 1000GSM currently for 5.94 Euro for the XL version. Who knows the Un and what would you advise me to do?

Honda-Alufelge crumbled
When we talked about the Honda-Alu rims before, I just had a stupid mess. At the exit from the garage, I striped a curb with the left rear tire. Unfortunately, the result is not pleasing. The tire itself got nothing, but the aluminium rim has clearly visible grinding marks. I got over it with my finger and then the upper layer of the aluminium rim came to me already. It really crumbles off, had afterwards the Brös So it’s totally ugly and that’s why a new alloy rim has to be here. Fortunately I have an appointment with the dealer today anyway and I’ll ask if you can order the standard 17-inch rims from Honda extra. Take a look at the cost of around 200 euros for the alloy rim, because that’s unfortunately not cheap at Honda. Shit happens. So always be careful with curbs. Such a rim is broken faster than you think. I won’t happen to me in five years, but now it’s the new Civic.
