  • Interested in the 850 – which engine?

    Moin, think about getting me a 850 station wagon. What you’re reading is real long-term cars, which you can also buy with 280,000km on the clock and then drive for a few years. Little rust, extremely stable technology, even the exhaust system should last almost 10 years… Since I’m more of a suitable type, I place more value on reliability and lower consumption than on full boost at speed 200… So it’s clear that a turbo is out of the question. Which engine i The 2.0l with 125hp or the 2.5l with 145hp? Does one of these two DOHC five-cylinder weak points? I would be grateful for your tips and experiences with your 850s! LG histomatic

  • Immobiliser

    Good morning, someone has – in another forum – claimed that the electronic immobilizers (these terrible things that disqualify my elk as an escape vehicle in bank robberies) are “…to crack an experienced carcracker in less than 3 minutes”! Apart from the question of which “experienced carcracker” wants to steal a 16 year old 850 – is that true? I wish you all a happy, sunny Easter PS: I don’t want a recipe – just want to know if it True

  • Will return V70

    Hello, I’m looking for a stay again after a V70 2.5 d switch. Only all the vehicles I’ve longed for have a fancy mileage (was out of the favorite check booklets when you call at the workshops) I wanted to know, however, if it is possible to get the leaching power of the vehicle (since Schekheft and invoices are not always available), I always hear different opinions, but most say the e I have to say that by now I have been quite shaky, that almost 100% of the Volvos I have seen have changed the running performance!!! Slowly you are really inclined to Paraneua!! 4000 expensive for a twelve to fifteen year old car with 400 000 km I don’t want to spend either! Thanks in advance for your opinions Jojo

  • Audi 80 Type89: fuse 14 always burns through

    Hello, I have a problem. And I noticed last time that my numbering lights don’t work. I first thought like lamps would be broken, but then I noticed that fuse 14 (glove compartment, number handle.) burned through. So I switched fuse and it burned out right away. So I measured what resistance I have there between + and -. There are 5 ohms without tacho on it and 3 ohms with tacho on it. I know in the “cold” state it is of course only little meaningful, because the conductivity of the lamps in the luminous state decreases. What can not be true, someone an idea. PS: A year ago I smoked the poti for the speedometer lighting, which I have now bridged (so almost always full on), but also this is not possible.

  • Type 89 braking system

    Hello. I don’t like my braking system in the 80s type 89 at all. in some ot situations it just slows down too weak. Is there a way to convert the normal 80s type 89 to brake discs in the rear or is that rather a big problem? The brake discs in the front are also warm relatively quickly and thus too much braking power is lost. What can I do there.

  • After exchange of the heat exchanger all discs extremely strong fogged!?

    Hello everybody, I hope you can help me again! After my Audi the heat exchanger has been changed in a workshop for approx. 750€ are basically always all my discs so extremely fogged that you can see nothing anymore and already form drops that run down on the disc! As soon as I press the AC button for the air conditioning the extreme humidity goes away on all the discs in the car, as soon as I deactivate the air conditioning, however, are immediately all Can the air conditioner break off if I activate it and still adjust the air to warm? What also struck me is that the REC no longer lights up red when pressing! One day later the AC button (air conditioning system) was no longer activated. Did the workshop make a mistake during the repair and can this error possibly cause the air conditioning to be broken now? Thank you and greeting Ben

  • Speedfight 2 exhaust ..

    Hello guys.. I’ve got myself a Speedfight 2, 100 ccm. The tires are there and are waiting for their assembly. (I’m currently on Mallorca and let the sun shine on the fur for me and my family :-)).. He drives quite well (according to Tacho about 95) and runs through properly…so it’s enough for me. Had forgotten how horny it is to drive through the completely clogged (zich construction sites) professional traffic with a small, agile scooter!!!… f exchange. That however only for optical reasons. The old one is still dense and it also does not rattle anything. But he looks quite rusty. Straight away from the cracker and at the exit. Now the question which I should take. Important criteria.. – he should correspond to the original! Especially he should not become louder! I do not want racing – tuning crash bag, with which he runs worse afterwards, because I did not change any weights ..etc, of which I have no idea anyway. be!:-) And important… it should be allowed! I read from gianelli. Just read there once with and then again without a type approval for the same exhaust. Then you look again, which looks like a riot already..:-) Who has experience sharing with accessories? As said , important not louder as original ( 2 clocks already :-)..and with permission.. Thanks..
