  • Tap in Mongos

    After everyone is on all-you-can-eat and this seems to be the only way to get really tired of you, sometimes another suggestion: 20.05.06 – 19 o’clock at Mongos in Dortmund? We only have to reserve the table as soon as possible, so register at short notice. I will reserve for 10-14 people today or tomorrow. Changes should not be a problem Participant: Erw./Kinder 2/0 cbhagen + OHL Greeting, Carsten

  • new truck concept

    so dear friends of the truck, I am an industrial design student and make to my diploma a new concept for a semitrailer, actually rather a roadtrain for the areas where this is allowed (USA, Australia, sweden,…). that means total length of the train car or driving car does not play a big role! So the following points: 1) Which suggestions have you experienced Trucker for improvements regarding… – Aerodynamics – Consumption – Noise insulation (outside) – Axle load distribution – Transport volume (how much should you really transport in order to efficiently use time and consumption) 2) What really matters if you have been on the road for several days? (especially in the interior) 3) What do you pay attention to if you would buy a truck? (and not only cost) 4) Which trucks do you like most? and why? (exterior) 5) Can you do anything with the huge things from America (mack, freighliner, kenworth,…) or are these just polluting fling for you “e Uropäer? 6) Tires! how often are the vegetated, renewed, cut,…? cost a new set of tyres? 7) Transport goods! what usually goes on the longest journey and which types of trailers are suitable for it? 8) Logistics! are actually just loaded containers and transported from one point to another without it being opened and the contents being unloaded? 9) There will still be questions… … many! so.. I hope that wasn’t too much at once… I am happy to hear ch about every contribution and hope that we create a cool concept at the end… and then go tos design… even hornier! thank you so much! ..bin already excited lg johhny

  • Mercedes/Actros/MP2/Interalheck/Saddle

    Mercedes/Actros/MP2/Interalheck/Sattel IMPORTANT READING BITTE Hey, people I found out today on my father’s tractor, on our premises there is such a hill in it, in which always a tractor is pushed into to park, and today I have seen the Rahemn from the Actros, falls off behind the drive axle again in about 45° angle (can also be less) and then the cross-section comes at the back as the end of the frame, and the hill is so steep that the rear axle ieger (the frame of the trailer) hangs into the frame of the tractor, and has the frame (thanks to our good ranger who understands nothing and always approaches when crawls and scrapes) about 5-10 cm to the left “bowed, pressed” (however) , that is also noticeable, that the left control wing looks further out than the right, the question to the experts among you, must one have such a “SHADEN” directed on a frame bench, or if tüv, is that criticized by the tüv,dekra examiner ?? does he see this at all??? thank you for replying… greetings matze

  • Oh, my God, it’s already built…

    Hello MINI community! I just got a call from mine, our clubby is already built and is standing in Germany (at the central warehouse). Going faster than expected, it was obviously built before the factory holidays. Planned handover was at the end of September, because our 3er runs until the beginning of November (leasing) and the BMW Leasing agrees to an early return, but still wants to see about 2/3 of the leasing rates. I honestly have little desire to see several hundred euros in the Mona On the one hand, we are happy that the clubby is almost at the door, on the other hand, we don’t want to give back the 3rd and have to pay for it for another two and a half months. Does anyone have an idea? Can you somehow make BMW Leasing give up, does someone know such cases? Somehow, you would like to “close into your arms” your new MINI, on the other hand, I don’t want to “give up money” … Greetings Dirk

  • Mini Cooper or S

    ….I can’t decide! There is a purchase of a convertible automatic and now we are at the superior COOPER and tuning or S without tuning What are the experiences and where can I find a serious tuner which also replaces the factory warranty? Does Carlson also do something at Mini? Where can you get beautiful attachment parts? How does the automatic drive in the Cooper and S ? Many questions……lover before than later too late! Thank you and greetings

  • Webasto VW T91 with 1533

    Hello car friends, I have a normal heater (analog) with a 1533 – functional! Now I have made a VW T91 incl. transmitter – I can also activate it.My problem: The mode cannot be switched in the remote control – every time I start ON lights it only green and the ventilation function is on. But press on heating with 2xON/OFF does not work. Does anyone have experience with it? Thank you already in advance 🙂

  • Brake drum no longer fits over jaws

    Hello together, stupid story, after disassembly of the brake drum at the rear (was a bit sanded because of rust) someone has probably still stepped on the brake pedal in the developed condition. The brake cheeks pressed themselves outwards and did not pull back again. Now of course the drum is no longer over – what is best to do here. Annoying thing that :/ MfG N

  • Lacquer becomes cloudy milky after polish

    Tachchen, I had completely polished my car about 3-4 weeks ago.Sequence: 1. wash 2. knead 3. wash 4. bad places with sanding polish 3M green 5. polish with 3M antihologram polish 6. grow in, first with A1 Speed Polish. Afterwards I had everywhere in the paint, which did not go away. I guess it was residue from the polish that were now sealed. ;-( So again step 4 to bring the wax down again and then again step 5. Then I applied Sonax Wax. The result was perfect. Absolutely no holograms and very nice shine. Fly residue can be washed off simply with the high pressure jet. BUT Bin On Friday by car 5h in the bright sun drove to Austria. When we arrived there the paint was suddenly totally milky in some places and you see where I am along with the polishing machine (excenter). How can that be? The car looked great 3-4 weeks and now that? I need to get help, don’t trust me on the street as he looks now.

  • Corrosion and bad paint

    Moin I want to protect my car from rust. It starts all over flight rust. So far I have used sonax flight rust remover but everything does not go away. Manufacturer ? – Type ? Mercedes 250 td Kombi bj 1992 – Color 147 White – Metallic (j/n) ? No – Age ? 26 – Care history in a few words, like e.g. „So far approx. every 3 weeks washing system, 1x a year hand polish and waxing , 1 times a week with high pressure cleaner 1 times a year by hand with red white polishing paste – Description Condition, like e.g. „ e Washer stripe, on the front insects burned, approx.3cm long scratches in bonnet, wheel runs made of plastic bitten off everywhere flight rust Partially repainted Rather little shine – if necessary targeted photo(s) of defect(s) to be removed – previously used polish/paint cleaner ? – previously used wax/sealing ? – Budget: What do you want to invest maximum for the upcoming action on care expenditure (abs. pain limit) ? 250 Euro – Conditioner: Comes a professional – Is the purchase of a polishing machine (power socket!) with corresponding professional means in question (several hundred EUR, but if necessary lasts several years) ? I don’t want to invest more than 250 Euro – Do you regularly drive through a washing machine and have that further, or does it come into question ? No It would be in question – How much time is provided per week (approximately) for car care ? One hour – How often per year b is you ready to polish / grow ? 3-4 times it would be nice if the seal protects the paint permanently.
