  • 70’s feathers, Audi still too high!

    Hi, I’m fresh here! Wanted to click me through, but I didn’t find anything to my problem, maybe you can help me. I bought a 86 Audi Coupe (great car), there were 30 Fintec feathers in it, but the car always drove uphill! At ebay I bought new springs 70/50 (Cupline??) and installed yesterday (only in front), but the car is still as high as before? My colleague drives the same Coupe, with the 30 Fintec feathers, which lies deep as s My coupe is still doing great, so he’s not lying on the front of the dampers! I solved the rubbers from the triangle handlebar once, they don’t keep the car up, so what’s wrong? Could it be that I have any change on the suspension leg? Thank you so much for tips! Greeting René

  • Belt tensioner no longer tensiones 🙁

    hello my friends 😉 the belt tensioner on the driver’s side no longer pulls the belt properly, if I want to strap off and get out. the belt even often hangs in the door when I reach it. otherwise, however, it still works 1a, so safety-wise. ask: can I remove the somehow and clean/oil? or rather buy a used andren, if that bothers me so much.

  • Diesel consumption

    I think the topic has often been chewed through but I still ask, how much liter should an audi 80 b4 tdi with 90 ps be allowed to consume approx. in this cold season time. we have at the time temperatures from so -10 to -13 degrees and he needs average 8 liters on highway and land road (driving rarely in the city) without being overly strained. isn’t that a bit too high???? my car had since buying to the problem that it from time to time locked off until one from the ga spedal went and stepped up again. Consumption approx. 7 liters at temperatures of approx. + 15 degrees. a hose was leaking and now it funzes again, but now it comes to me that the sprite consumption has become higher, but it has become colder as already said. have my car only been a few months, therefore no experience!!

  • Rear brake brakes unevenly – tips?

    Hi guys, I was with my C4 at the Tüv, and the car failed due to unequal braking power of the rear brakes. I then had the rear brake replaced by a colleague, because the brake blocks and the discs were pretty low. Again on the brake test stand, and the uneven distribution became even worse. The right brake caliper almost stopped from the number 1 (10 kilosNewton?) . The left saddle continued to pack. That was only the case with the hyd The braking force of the hand brake was even. The caliper was not fixed at the brake block. It could be screwed in just as easily as the left one. Both saddles were also made superficially clean. The things were also completely dry, so no loss of fluid. The brake fluid was changed almost 2 years ago (will definitely be changed this evening). Does one of you have a tip on what that might be? I personally did not have any I’m not really in need of the experience, like a real car mechanic, either. The colleague with whom I fix the whole thing is a car mechanic. We couldn’t quite explain it so far. Since the caliper is smooth and dry, we actually assume that the caliper is in order. Especially since the hand brake is ok, should it only be due to the hydraulics, right? I got the rear brake hoses and replace them tonight. easy one of these is defective and leaves only a certain limit of pressure to build up. It is such a guess of me. Buy and install just 2 new brake calipers for just under 300 euros is now also not necessarily my favorite hobby. Especially since the car has cost me 600 euros in the last 2 weeks. I would be pleased about every tip. Greeting Christian

  • Coupe Neulack 的 Your opinion is in demand

    On the other hand, as one or the other may have noticed, I had an accident with my coupe and now I have to renew the side wall to the right. I decided to repaint the whole car immediately. Now I can’t decide at all which colors. Who has a mouse can recommend me now just color, best with picture. Who has a long time and knows how to get in touch with Photoshop, I send then a picture It can really every Fa be rbe, just no excessive flip flop please. I would also make two-color. So A-B-C column and roof in one and the rest in another matching color or something. Thank you and all a nice weekend greeting – capo

  • Smart Roadster for 1.85m and 145kg?

    As the title already says, I want to get it straight to the point. I am 17 and want to get my first car close soon. To study I probably need something small, moderate in the maintenance for the city. Therefore, the numbers of the smarts let me ponder whether it will become my future. Hard consumption, virtually no tax, unconventional, exotic design. Eigtl. exactly mine. But since I don’t understand anything about cars and have not yet sat in a real one , I would like to know from you: What kind of mileage can you expect? And do I even fit in there? (1,85m/145kg) in various forums it was called up to 2m you should probably climb but in sitting there do not have any problems. I thank you for your help and am happy to be open for other suggestions!!

  • Used car check

    Good morning, yes, there are many threads to it… And the various providers are quite critically evaluated. When I was looking for another car, I offered my golf at the brand dealer, where I wanted to buy the “new” one, for payment. He checked the car thoroughly, and also told me the result in detail. With this information I could sell the car on fair conditions (I could correctly provide information) privately. Andersrum it would not be wrong. If you want to buy a newer car from approx. 5000 EUR, you can also go to the brand dealer and have the car checked through. A deal with the seller would also be possible: if everything is right with the car, it will be bought, if not, the seller will bear the costs (or the costs will be shared). Also about the history of the car there would be no misunderstandings, at least if the history of the car would be stated as “check-booked”. Is there good counterarguments, i.e. arguments, which justify such an approach as outcast money, and yet better to go to the usual evaluators of ADAC, Dekra and consorts, if you have no expert advisor in the backhand?

  • Car for everyday use up to 250€ maximum 3000€

    Good day, Since it is now clear that I will not bring my current vehicle through the TÜV anymore, and continue driving, something new will be done from next month to June. Since it takes time for the vehicle to be offered in this price range, which one would like to have, I now wanted to look around and inquire about it. To my driving profile: – Ca 900-01000 KM a year – Short distance to work 12KM away to work, 15KM away to school – weekend I drive a lot of Landst I was thinking about the car, where the vehicle is kicked, and the data about my current vehicle: – rear wheel drive – combi – 1.8L 122hp What the vehicle should have: – Should be a limo, otherwise a combi – rear wheel drive or all-wheel drive (would be something new), front drive is not the real thing for me. – 150hp – onboard computer, window lift Electric front (but are things that I look for when looking for them) So far I have found interest in: – A4 B5 1.8TQ (I was told that they were looking for). – Audi 80,100,200 – BMW 3 Series, 5 Series It should already be in the direction of Audi,BMW and maybe even again Mercedes, other manufacturers of course also go, except VW,Opel,Skoda, because I don’t really like the vehicles from the look. After all, I have to drive around with them ^^ Maybe you have some suggestions and ideas. Unfortunately I don’t know if a turbo makes any sense, for the short distance, except only on weekends and holidays we nn you drive longer. I have 500€ monthly for repairs there, can screw yourself and knows someone near me who can help me with problems, because he himself is a screwdriver and has a workshop. MFG

  • Which compact car with high seating position and entry + good guarantee (automatic up to approx. 25k €)

    Hello together, my mother has enormous problems with her knee and is very difficult with her current Ford Focus (2003) and above all with the manual transmission. I would like to give her a car / finance and surprise her with it. It is important here just as high a entrance and also a high sitting position and a good automatic transmission + gasoline, because little long distance and a lot of commuting traffic (daily approx. 30 km) and annually approx. 10,000 km driving performance. The brand is perfect no matter – it’s more important to have a good and long warranty so that it doesn’t have to worry about expensive repairs in the first few years. It has been driving accident-free for more than 20 years, so SF-classes don’t play a really significant role. New price with a maximum of 25,000 EUR. I always hit the Opel Meriva – but I personally only have my own experience with Japanese and VW and am not really sure about that. ieoption if possible).Thank you in advance for your tips and experiences. Greetings Jan

  • Search fuel saver

    Hello, I am looking for a small new or young used up to 900€. If it makes it cheaper, I could also pay in cash. I drive about 30 km daily to work 50% highway, 30% highway and 20% city traffic (and again 30km back 🙂 ). I want to have a fuel-saving car that is as low as possible maintenance. I thought maybe of a C1/107/Aygo or a Skoda Citigo or a 108 or Kia Picanto. As equipment is only a radio important to me. Possibility I should be able to survive a smaller accident (with the old Smart I always had the feeling that the legs could be broken because he has no carriage zone). Unfortunately I have no idea at all about cars. I had thought of finally deciding for the KIA because it has at least 7 years guarantee. What do you mean? I am also open to other suggestions. Thank you!
