  • BMW R 1250 Lifetime Battery Experienced?

    Hello, I would like to know how long the original battery was held by your boxers? My R1250RS is produced from 2019 (after a factory holiday – now 4 years old) and when starting it sounds like the battery is at the end… everything just before collapse but goes on. Several times starting (without driving a longer distance) is already difficult despite previous full charging with charger – there are error messages the sensors fail (due to undervoltage…v battery was always connected to the BMW charger (overboard socket) over winter and motorcycle was always in the garage… so had already had favorable conditions. Km stand 14000. Is this normal and I am only used to a longer battery life from the car? Thanks for your experience…

  • Burned Smell at Acceleration

    Moin moin, I would need your experience again so I found a burnt smell today after I accelerated about 5 sec in the first gear up to 130+ kmh, from 50-60 kmh. I have to say that I never accelerate my bmw in the first gear so high, but somehow I switched one too far down. The burnt smell was only short there, I am immediately off the gas. But still I don’t know such a smell. If I drive a little faster otherwise s I keep up in the 4 to 5 gears there is zero what. And yes, I’m not so experienced about bikes, that’s why there are such forums. o

  • BMW K75 – Rear brake functionless

    I wanted to go to HU today. I turned the other way around because I noticed that the rear brake is not working. The K75 is from 1993 incl. ABS, the documents I changed about 4 years ago. The last brake fluid change is a long time ago. There are no steel hoses on it, but there is no leak and no inflating. The brake fluid is in it, the discs are not oily. The operation of the foot lever is possible with extremely low force until the stop. I. But there is zero delay. Of what I could find about the search function here is the most likely cause of the footbrake switch. The machine was about 1.5 years ago, can something have been fixed there? She is already 30 years old.

  • Coating Code Convert

    Tach Leutz! Got a problem. Have a Ford Escort Kombi 1.8/16V BJ 96 Since Tüv is screaming soon, I have to repair a wheel box a bit. Yesterday I was at ATU because of the paint, (previously of course from the engine room fetched the identification number ) but they could not do anything with it then… So quasi media market employee “Nisch meine Abteilung” *lol* yes you have an idea? Since there is no more service booklet nobody can say exactly how the color is called (I myself) Just say silver). Have only this three-digit number. Do you have any idea if there is somewhere in the WWW list where you can change the numbers or something in the direction? Would you be grateful for answers.

  • Principle question: What type of purchase (leasing, GWK, fin.) for modern family car/pendelaut

    Hello, with us an additional vehicle with the requirements: 4x per week commuting = total kilometer/year approx. 20,000 km Motorway suitable and reserves for country roads, easy terrain suitable (Allroad, Alltrack, Scout, …) with all-wheel drive and AHK Large family-friendly trunk New car purchase is not possible, since value loss makes no sense. Car must run reliably, should have things like hands-free equipment, voice control, modern lighting system, etc. Diesel with at least 180-190 PS Sooo often I have not yet come to the opportunity to buy/leas a vehicle etc. Therefore my principle question: What type of purchase? Private leasing New car/day registration/yearly car = here I come to rates (according to the vehicle requirement) of at least 400 to 510 € per month Private leasing Young used person: the leasing rates are also around 400/500 € used car purchase with credit from house bank/internet bank with sale after 4 years financing of a boy Gebra uchten or annual car with credit from Hausbank/Internetbank Thank you!

  • Resign as a private seller from selling to a dealer?

    Hello forum, I am interested in the following: I have offered a car at Autoscout. A dealer in a far distance wanted him because he has a customer for it. So he sent me a contract as PDF with his signature. I have printed, signed, scanned and sent it back. Amount is also as agreed in the purchase contract. So now I have a much better offer from a buyer. Is the contract binding for me? What can the dealer do if I have the m say he doesn’t get the car after all? He didn’t make a deposit, because everything went by e-mail. Please not moral accusations, but only facts, or experiences. Thank you. Lapsy
