  • Paint damage caused by Vogelkot

    We drive a Ford Fiesta BJ 2006. Now we had to find out the one dove on the roof.. had.. when I wiped it away the sheet came out! Ford probably has the opinion that this is normal. We had until recently still a Mondeo 14 years old, the dove could not hurt him. Lt. Ford I have to put it away immediately and even a few hours will be enough! I find it the hammer should sleep now by my car and constantly wipe! Maybe one of you has a similar problem and can help me!

  • Mazda 6 CD changer defective

    Hello first, I’m new here, hope someone can help me… So I’ve been a Mazda 6 Sport Kombi 2.0l Diesel Bj. 2004 A super nice car! Only working a few days are no CD ́s anymore. I had 3 CD ́s ind the changer. When I started the engine the CD changer gave me one CD after another. I then pushed LOAD and made one again. And now the problem: –> he doesn’t give me the CD anymore. –> he plays the CD again. he doesn’t accept new CDs –> he doesn’t respond to the eject button anymore or LOAD… Maybe one of you has an idea what could be there and how I can fix it. Then another question so by the way: Does anyone of you know if it’s possible to make the Mazda Mp3 possible? A Mazda dealer said that would only go from the facelift model. Thanks in advance for all of you answer!

  • Gearboxes or coupling noises

    Hello everyone, I have a little problem. Mostly this is in the morning when the car has stood overnight and is cold. And that is when I start the car in the morning I make the idling in and let the car run for a short time before I start. As long as I hold the clutch everything is good, but if I let go I would say grinding, knocking mmm maybe also painting noises from the gearbox or the clutch. I think however transmission comes only when you get the Kup When you drive you hear nothing, really only in the stand and idle. If you have driven a few kilometers then the noise is almost gone in the stand. I would say that it sounds almost normal. Every now and then a quiet beat. Maybe someone had something similar and can tell me something about it. In the workshop I was already there the car was warm. He said it was all good and I could continue driving like this and I told him put the car there in the evening and he would test it in the morning. It is a Ceed Sw, petrol 1.5 liter with 140 hp and hand-operated. The car is 1.5 months old and has 2000 KM on the speedometer.

  • Install 5 gears in W 123 240 D

    I would like to install a 5 gear transmission in the W 123 240D Bj 1984. That should then the engine speed at 140 in 5 gear should be slightly lower than now? Is this possible at all? Too bad that the H-approval or can you just let the old gear lever for the 4 gear drive in so that the TÜV inspector doesn’t notice that. Who has a tip here?

  • 200D (60hp) – Frankfurt-Berlin-Frankfurt

    So people, started last Friday at 19 o’clock in Berlin, arrived after 566KM in 5.5 hours with a consumption of determined 9,93L. The last 200KM wanted to arrive like the driver. The box ran to Tacho 150. Today it went back. Here there were numerous climbs, which did not exist in the other direction. Sometimes there were no more than 100 in it. Consumption today: 8,84L. Everything is great. But it’s loud:-) And: The people let one survive. And: The 4th course is effective h elastic. I’m thrilled 🙂

  • Rim horn of the JCW 18 inch rim scratched for laundry

    Hello everyone, I just picked up the new Cooper S in the Works Trim for my wife and got the left, front rim scratched all around at the first laundry (Waschstraße). Wash roads operator is of course defending himself with “overstanding rim horns” not allowed through the wash road. That is a complete misplanning of the work department, that they bring out the 18 customs with 215 him. The rim is clearly above and curb damage is preprogrammed….and also damage i n wash roads. He claims that you can raise 225 and that the problem is solved??!! Can this work? Can the work rim carry a 225 tire, although 215 from the factory?!

  • Mini CooperE J01 – latest model

    Hello Mini friends, does someone know if, and if so, how to shut down the KeylessGo function in the new “China Cracker” Mini Cooper J01 ? There is a setting that disables the opening when approaching (in the vicinity), but when the door handle is in contact, the door opens. It would be interesting if it is possible to disable the reception function of the car. Many other manufacturers and workshops say that this is not possible, but in other brands, the Keyless Funkti I want to open the mini only by pressing the key, looking forward to factual answers !

  • Active seat in the mini

    I’d like to ask about your experience with the car seat in new Mini’s. Since I’m only supposed to get mine in November and there are unfortunately no vehicles with this equipment at surrounding dealers, I would like to ask you about your experience with the car seat. Have just read an article, probably from the USA it is also installed a ventilation. Is it really like this or is it market-dependent again? How is the massage function? This is especially important to me because I have to complain back problems. e. Would be happy about any experience! Thank you!!!

  • Wheels / winter bikes J01

    Hello together, am just a bit despairing.. I’m looking for rims for winter bikes for my J01. The selection of the available originals is really bad.. or the price is totally beyond. Only the 16″ with ~120€ are within the frame, but look modest. In the accessory I found 17″ by Dezent which are supposed to fit on de J01, but in the report stands of “free-access” to produce in the wheelhouse etc… That’s not possible, of course, because Leasing.https://www.felgenshop.de/dezent-tr -black-polished-17-inch-ttr78bp27e/mini-limousine-j01-jm1-alufelgen/0-0l-cooper-e-55kw-75-ps/ “The wheel cover on axle 1 is to be manufactured by issuing the front apron and fender or by mounting permanently fixed body parts in the range 30 degrees before the centre of the wheel and 50 degrees behind the centre of the wheel. Depending on the vehicle’s setup condition (e.g. vehicle depth, wheel cover width, etc.), it may be possible that the wheel cover is sufficient. the wheel/tire combination must be covered in the above mentioned area, taking into account the maximum possible operating dimensions of the tyre (1.04 times the nominal width of the tyre).
