Hello dear forum members, currently I drive an old car and wanted to look around for a new car. First of all one thinks of the well-known ABM. Audi already falls away. 5 he and E-Class remain. Actually the decision was for a 5er Touring. Then I happened to come across the XF Sportbrake. A very nice car! Then I read a little more. Unfortunately, the XF falls on the rear ranks in all German comparison tests. I Especially as if the 5 Series Touring was the measure of all things. No question, the Touring is great, so I wanted to get this one first. But is this the right decision? I already agreed to a test drive for the XF at the local dealership. Nevertheless, I have questions to all those who have been driving this car for some time. Especially the 2.2 L (also as a doctor you have to think a little more economically…) I don’t buy a new car for at least the next 10 years. 1. How can you not be able to control the oil level? Also, there should be NO temperature indicator for the cooling water? I would be a little hard to do with it…What can you do? 2. An automatic pull-in for the tailgate? Does this mean that you can do it on button deck, but can’t open it? 3. In comparative tests, the Jag always needs a little bit more diesel than the competitors. Is this understandable? 4. Wiese is di e Insurance rating so much more expensive? I would be charged about 200 ,- Euro per year more than a Benz or BMW… 5. I looked around at Mobile.de. There are nice vehicles about 32,000 Eur. As an annual car and less than 30,000 km. A comparablely equipped BMW or Benz costs easily 3,000 Euro more…High value loss? What do you think of the offers? 6. I thought darkened discs would be series? I know many questions, but I want to inform myself. The BMW is s of the maintenance costs certainly slightly cheaper than the XF. But XF is rare and not an all-world car…The design timeless. At least I feel this at the moment so… I hope you can help me with my decision at least informatively, where questions 1 and 5 are really important for me, as a small control freak…. Thank you very much for your answers….

I would like to know what the owners think about it. As I said, even first impressions would always like to come here. Thank you

500 Volt Test Measurement – Autoelectric ???
Hello municipality, my 166 apparently has a mass problem. An acquaintance is an electrician (not a car) and we would like to know if the autoelectric can take damage with a 500 volt measurement. At 500 V the voltage overruns and you can determine where the error is. How else do you look for the error? Interestingly, if I plug the bulb in the back, it glows for exactly 4 seconds, then it goes out and later the filament starts to glimmer periodically and then again again. I forgot to mention that my rear part is except for brake lights without lighting. No reversing lights, fog lights etc. The other bulb does not react to the insertion of the one bulb. Light control unit I switched, missing! Who can tell me where the lighting at the back decreases mass? Thank you already, Christian

Delivery problems Giulietta?!!
Hello, as Alfisti old school, I finally found another Alfa with the new Giulietta after long years, which addressed me. Test drive and order were one (on 8.7.2010), the delivery was promised until 15.10.2010 – unfortunately I wait for my vehicle today. A timid demand at the branch Berlin (seller) brought me only an annoying “if ́s so far, we will get back to you” Therefore my question in the round: Is there any sufferers or serious in I can’t verify the truth. Overall, an unsatisfactory basic situation, which seems to confirm old (advantage) rulings on Alfa, however, seems to be confirmed.

S 60 Special equipment + Nebula rims
Hi guys, I ordered one of the last Black Editions of the S60 D5. Can anyone tell me which extras are very worthwhile? Have hands-free system and fog lights in addition. Is the external amplifier worth it? How sensitive is the normal laking? Bzw. Is the metallic laking much more resistant? Does anyone have the Nebula rims here? They look so super horny! How much do they cost? I am grateful for all the tips. Greeting Victor

Summer time in moose
Hello, it’s summer time. Since I left at around 18:00 to go to the city, where I always park in a parking lot, which is free from 18:00, I was surprised that my S60 showed up on arrival 17:33. So I remembered again: we have summer time. So quickly imagine an hour. Press and turn the button, as I was used to by my VW to change between adjustment of hours and minutes: does not work. here is 60 minutes to introduce. Did I not discover any special facial expressions of the button, or is it really just like that? Greetings, Olli

Foreign parkers on superchargers – what does Tesla do about it?
What is actually being done against all the foreign parkers at the charging stations?! Does Tesla matter or is this a domestically inadequately regulated legal situation? I don’t want to know anything about the foreign parkers themselves – this can be considered extensively separately social or psychologically…

How to make VIDA super easy to run
For a very long time I had my purchased VIDA/DICE in the corner and did not dare to install it because I had read about many complications. I have a PC with Windows 10 Home 64 bit. I read about a pre-made installation file that I only needed to download. Link: https://volvodiag.com/download/ Green button “Simple way” clicked, in the next window “Virualbox Edition” and the 5 dollars paid by Paypal. After about an hour the download was done. After that I had an ova file. With 7-Zip I unpacked the ova file to Vida 2014D. Now I downloaded the “Oracle Virtual Box” (click on Windows host) because you need it to run. The installation is self-explanatory. With “import file” one then searches the “Vida 2014D and it is imported into the VirtualBox. Oh yes, the “VirtualBox Extension Pack” n I don’t write every step here, at least my Vida is running – AND IT WAS SO EASY! The 4.70 Euro was worth it. Inder VirtualBox is now running Windows 7, the creator has created everything fixed & finished. I had not connected Dice yet, because I still have to enter all my data. I hope the last one now dares to do so. I would be happy to help you with any questions.
