  • Just puppets?

    According to press reports, the regulations for the 2002 season should be changed under the cover coat of safety. The so far one-sided data transmission from the bolid to the box should then be bidirectionally possible! That means that the pit team can then influence e.g. engine power and speed of the vehicle during the race! Is Formula 1 still interesting from this point of view? What is your opinion on this change?

  • My consumption isn’t normal, is it?

    I thought I was going to test what my car had to use … I was scared…I was full of fuel (until it shuts down) then drove 120 km and refueled again(until it shuts down on its own) then the view of the tank column wow said and wrote was there 23,04 liter ….I drove the car quite normally ..there’s something wrong… as it’s an Audi 80 Avant bj.93 150 HP VR6….maybe it’s due to the wide mature or the kat (which is empty). is)(am … I wasn’t that) would be great if someone could tell me something about it…

  • Today I was happy to drive a quattro…

    Today it clearly paid off to have bought a Quattro Was on the way today and had to drive briefly on sunner stupid couple (do not ask why, I don’t tell anyway ) Anyway I drove first on the edge, there was everything good, then I wanted to turn to come down again, and then the person sitting next to me said, “Don’t drive over there so far this looks pretty muddy” and I said there only very big Kotzig, “that doesn’t matter, is a Quattro” Then I noticed r still like the car slowly sinks and got stuck Only again and again forward and backward but didn’t really bring anything, my driver already animally laughed, then I said well an ace I still have, so quickly the differential lock pure but well the desired success brought also not but better as before, must have had to fight definitely 15 min until I was finally outside. Always before and back and the mud track became more and more long but also with running managed I didn’t… At the end I was able to steer a bit to the left and then it slowly but surely worked out with short swings so always shortly before and back in small steps^^ Well that you should have that movie came to mind later, but so you can still see what the car looked like afterwards http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSBEsQI5dUI Well for that he also got the full washing program including lacquer seal greeting Christian

  • Test drive denied…

    Hello together, have posted a topic here recently, but this time it’s about something else. So, I want to look at a car in Holland, have the dealer at Whatsapp. I wrote him that I’m coming around on Saturday afternoon to look at the car and do a test drive. Well, a test drive is denied me -> see picture. Should I forget the car. Because his statement I can’t understand…. Greetings Zoydberg

  • Search new/young used small cars, min.100hp

    Hello! I’m currently looking for a small car. It’s my first car, so I’d like to get a bit better equipped and motorized. I don’t need automatic transmission, instead I prefer a sliding roof. Hazards are about 12-15tkm p.a., about half short distance (5-7km), half long distance (100km+). Unfortunately, I have the “small problem” that many small cars don’t seem to agree to me, often too playful and too restless design. I’m looking for the conservative among the small cars. fit into it, what does it look like from the technical point of view? Did there have in the past several problems? Which engine would be recommended at the moment? I also find the Kia Rio shown on the MT homepage appealing. Would it be worth a recommendation? Thank you for your tips!

  • Tire flank damaged?

    Good day, I drove by car about 2 weeks ago at parking unfavorably with a tire along a curb / on the curb. Affected is one of the rear tires. It squeaked. The curb was not particularly high, perhaps more 5cm than 10cm and also not “sharp” but rounded. Besides, I was of course on the road with very low “creep speed”. I took photos of the tire directly afterwards, in the annex there are three photos. The “discoloration” or the slips on the tire, as shown in the photos, are as far as I can see, so that was probably rather superficial in the road dust on the tires. It is still the winter tires. Now I would like to have the wheels changed in a workshop next week and will also ask if one could look at the affected tires. I would be grateful if we could check out the tyre. I would also like to know in advance: what can a workshop actually do in such a case to check if there is any damage? Since the winter tyres should actually remain for storage on the rim, one cannot actually examine the tyres from the inside. I am grateful for all the tips and hints! Stephan M.

  • 245/40 R17 Year-round tyres?

    Hello everyone, have bought a 1 BMW F20 118i, stupidly at that time with mixed tyres (star spoke 382): front 225/45 R17, rear 245/40 R17. The problem now is that I really want to switch to all-year tires, unfortunately I find no reasonable all-year tire for the rear wheels! Neither Michelin CrossClimate nor Goodyear or Continental offer the corresponding tire size… Ideas? Is there perhaps a very summery winter tire that, although Wi is used even in summer?

  • Oil

    Now I have 0W 30 oil in it, but I want to switch to 5W 40. Can I just add the 5W 40 or do I have to get the old oil out first?

  • M6 Competition Gran Coupe / tyre recommendation

    Hello Community, for my BMW M6 Competition (305 km/h peak) I need tyres with the following dimensions: Front axle: 265/35ZR20 99Y Rear axle: 295/30ZR20 101Y Currently Pirelli P Zero tyres are installed. Now I swung between “Pirelli P Zero (PZ4?)” and “Michelin Pilot Sport 4S (LS?)”.Which one can recommend? Other suggestions are of course welcome.Wish to select tyres that offer as high a traction as possible, whether the Pirellis can do everything in this discipline. I would, however, like to doubt it as a non-connoisseur.
