  • EILT Driving behaviour SLK 230 K EILT

    Hello first of all, I am thinking of adding a SLK 230 compressor. In the topic of driving behaviour of the CLK, the driving behaviour of my current MB has described times. Actually, the technology is right with Mercedes, but especially higher speeds, side wind and Mercedes do not tolerate too much. My question: can someone tell me something about driving behaviour / wind sensitivity of the SLK? It is very urgent, as I have to decide immediately. A test drive with the vehicle ste It still looks like, but there is not every day wind and up here in Schleswig-Holstein the A1 eg is so Topfeben that you can only experience the surprises around Kassel and near Frankfurt. I would be very grateful for quick answers. Peter

  • Mazda Service

    My wife and I are interested in a Mazda 6. That’s why we wanted to get to know him at a test drive. So first we started a Mazda dealer nearby. Have we talked to the nice woman a little while and made an appointment about 3 weeks in the future. 2 days before I called if everything goes well. Nix was clear. Unfortunately you could not organize our car (comb 2.5 170 HP). You can’t tell us that? You’ll be in touch again. (That’s 5 weeks ago) So an online request started via mazda.de. The next day a call was received from a nice woman with whom I agreed on a dealer nearby. He’s in touch. That’s now almost a month ago. No general inquiry, what’s going on now, and whether she’s selling enough cars was of course ignored. What’s going on with them? Are there test driving at Toyota for now? Is this an exception to our “pech”, or can you confirm the bad service to me? Thanks a lot Schnutzie

  • Check Gear Box – Problem 95er 900-II V6 Automatic

    Hi together, for more than two weeks I’ve been a pedestrian grrrrr…. And that where the sun is coming out! At first a speed sensor was probably defective, so the machine just didn’t start. Problem finally fixed, but now: Cockpit: “Check Gearbox” lights up permanently. The car only runs in 3rd gear, the automatic just doesn’t switch. Diagnosis said: Switching layer sensor defective. It’s replaced. But still the same problem… Only the third gear in “D” is active. I’d love to go cabrio again, now that it’s getting warm, outside… Greetings hungry

  • Pre-contract for new SL600 for April 2004 searched

    As already mentioned above, I am looking for a pre-contract for the new SL600 and would like to take over the vehicle from the first owner from April 2004. However, the vehicle should be ordered according to my specifications and the VAT must be passable.

  • Clk 270 Cdi

    Hi guys. I’m new here and wanted to introduce myself. My name is Luc, I’m from Luxembourg and I’m the proud owner of a CLK 270 CDI coupé. My first Benz, before that I had an Audi 80 convertible 2.8 V6.(I hope the CDI 270 will be strong enough.) I ordered the car as AVANTGARD with leather, comfort climate, Bose sound system, seat heating front, sports suspension and 6speed manual circuitry. Now I have some questions. Unfortunately, I couldn’t test a manual circuit because my handset Is the new 6 gear transmission really as bad as it is always described here ? How well is the car going to drive with automatic in the winter ? Since I get the car only in June 2003 (yes 10 months delivery time in Luxembourg !) I can still order automatic. How about the optional sports suspension (only sports suspension without extra rims) ? I have unfortunately forgotten I hope I haven’t forgotten anything. Should you still take an option that I haven’t taken. See you – Luc –

  • CLK 500 or M3

    I also asked the question in the BMW Forum, but every forum I say something different? I am deciding whether to get a CLK 500 or an M3. I like the 500 very well and look good. If I would take one, then one with AMG package, black or silver and with a command. Does anyone have experience with the 500s ? What does he consume so and is there someone who drives you ?

  • Problem with rear flap sensor when the interior lighting is switched on

    When I turn on the interior lighting when the engine is running, a message is displayed in my driver’s display or flashes on that my tailgate is not closed. In addition, a warning sound resonates (as if driving with a door that is not properly closed). If I turn off the interior lighting again, the problem is gone. Has anyone ever had an experience of this or a guess what this might be all about?

  • Accident experience with the Phaeton

    Which one of you had an accident with a Phaeton before? What was your impression of how the vehicle got along with the acute crash, what did you notice about it. Today a Renault was crossed into our column against the direction without any obvious reason (allegedly black out). Because of the large distance to the Vodermann I was able to start a full braking – nevertheless crash at about 10-15 kmh. My wife and I felt nothing, the Twingo made a set of about 50 cm, the right Ra daufaufhängung, fenders and door are safely in the bucket. Since the poor wailing then still frontal on a sideward standing car, his airbags triggered. The train was no longer able to move. My Phaeton has lost the number plate, the fog lamp and the lamp spray system are defective. Larger deformations are not recognizable, the rest of the sad end I will probably find out tomorrow from my dealer.

  • Just one idea…

    Hello together In considering the fact that the Phaeton in Wolfsburg or Germany is very poorly supported, I thought that we as Phaeton owner (1st hand 2nd hand – however) should gather our experiences (consciously only the bad ones) and let them flow through direct Känale in the headroom of WB. I know from experience that such writings will have the desired effect if you get to the right person. I know here in the Switzerland a few AMAG business decision-makers (AMAG-Importeur VW-Group) which would certainly help me. In this forum there seems to be also people who should have direct wires to WB. With a small note, the information can be forwarded to the trade press, feedback is then guaranteed. Above all, I think here of such things as the Navi-CD, brakes, winter tyres and all other defects. Not to forget the complete incompetence of WB in the actual n Support of the premium buyers. I am very happy to take over the lead here as long as you would post your experiences again to some extent ready for printing. Since not emotionless but considering that we are no longer in the Kindeergarten 🙂 Depending on the feedback I will end January this thread evaluate and write a letter – on behalf of the Phaeton owners. Contact addresses you can of course also post or send these (will be treated confidentially) to [email protected] I think simply it’s time that (one) of the best cars of our time should also enjoy this support. So posted it – so I’m curious! greetings andi PS: Please mark experience Somehow with the heading “experience report” so that I can distinguish these from normal answers…
