  • Complete painting of Audi 80

    Hello guys, the paint from my good piece (B4, 1991, red) is slowly getting matte and some parts have been badly overpainted by my predecessor rather than quite. Now I play with the idea of having the car painted completely new and above all decently – especially since it is technically tip-top in order and meanwhile also somehow grew to my heart. I am unfortunately not a screwdriver, have from paint shop almost no idea and also no relevant relations in this direction. I would like to get a little more information and I hope to get some answers and advice from you. • How much can a completely new paint be? • What should I pay attention to? • How long will the action take? • Does the whole economic sense at all? • Has one of you already had experience with a repainting? Is one of you who wants to take over the job and can do it? I live in Berlin, but there are also holidays-drivers. len. I could imagine this: get there with old paint, take a few days of vacation – with new paint home. Or should I always go to a specialist workshop with such an action? twoparts

  • Water penetrates

    Hi people when I went to work this morning with my Volvo 480 S Built. 92 and during the rain the windows started at the front and the back (although I had the blower on cold standing) I was a little surprised and took a little look at it during the lunch break. Through the left rear light hood water comes through, because it has a crack. Since the apertures both tinted, I will need new ones and there comes my question: Where do I get a few cheap fit When I open the hood and look at the blower, normally there would have to be bars for it, but I didn’t and then I wanted to ask: Where do I get the matching bars? And now the big question: Why does the rear window start (sweats) I know, but where does it come from, that the windshield also starts from the inside, even though I put the blower cold on it??? And now the last question: In my Volvo is a kind of foam carpet in the trunk, So to speak as a floor. Of course, he sucked himself full of water. Do I have to change him, or is it enough if I hang him a little on the heating until he is dry? Greetings Tobi

  • Design of the subfora

    Hello, some time ago we had voted to set up another subforum for the “old” series 3XX, 4XX. Unfortunately, this has been postponed until now, because there is a desire to “overall” change the structure of the subforums. In addition, it is also about the length of the textual description of our foren, which is generally a bit long. Well, here I stand now. . . . . . . I could live well with the previous structure, just add the 3XX, 4XX, but can They cut down the terms, but how?

  • Volvo 4xx Series

    Hi to all Volvojaners (especially at Ober Guru Oli :-)) Now I have to know something: What do some have against the 4xx series of Volvo. I find that these cars are quite successful, especially in sports. Light, powerful engines, beautiful cockpit and good equipment. That they apparently like to have childhood diseases, I wouldn’t say exactly, since I now have 3 4xx and all 3 run like one for 2 years. The brakes are to be made regular, but the Prob The only major damage I had was the starter with my 440 Turbo and a headlight engine with the 480 Turbo but otherwise I am completely happy with the cars. You will never reach the flair of one of my 240, but they are not bad in my opinion and they deserve the Volvo beam. What do you think??? MfG Patrick

  • G20 with LPG

    Mojn, have had my G20 converted to LPG in order to annoy our finance minister, Landirenzo Venturi. But I’m not quite satisfied yet. Although the new workshop here in MA has done a very clean job, it’s still a bit difficult to adjust, I hope it’s a problem of attitude. For example, when driving in the OD with cruise control around 100, I have a permanent light jerk, not on petrol. ng with this car and a Venturi?? Thank you Tom

  • A dream or affordable?

    The following problem: I find the Trans Am of the 3rd generation simply horny, but I am only 18 and therefore not very wealthy. Would it be realistic if the car as a second car was aired over my daddy (perhaps classification 100% or so), that an 18 year old with a training fee of 400-500€ mtl. could provide the support for a Trans Am TPI? Or if at all the Firebird would be more possible. Did not know who else I should consult.

  • Power loss Golf 4 V6 4motion

    To all Golf 4 V6 4motion DRIVER Please help me! Hello Golf V6 friends, I have a Golf V6 4motion for a long time. I drive it always Shell V-Power. It has also increased in performance. THE PROBLEM: When I drive over 200 km/h and then let go of gas until I am back to approx. 110 km/h and then give again FOLLGAS the car does not take it and starts to vibrate from the engine (very strong). The V6 has problems with the load change from fast to slow and then immediately again quickly. The VW dealers somehow don’t have a plan. I should fill in 98 octan again and then it runs again without jerking. I don’t believe it. Since I noticed an improvement when changing spark plugs. Please to EUCH: All who drive a Golf V6 4motion have a similar problem or desire to chat with me about the Golf V6 and its treacherous to me! That would be great!!!! Maybe I can also answer your questions about the V6 from my experiences. Ask for help. Your 6motion ́er THANK YOU!!!!
