  • Total imbalance at 26 inches rim

    Hello, I got new rims for my lobster H2 last week. When I had to mount them and they were supposed to have been weighed, I noticed that the whole car from 70km/h was only “grimming”. Then I turned back to the so-called dealer in Roetgen and after many basic entertainments to the tyre dealer (another) to have the rim weighed again. Now I am not a rim/tire ace, but after the first run I understood very quickly that what ni This process was repeated 3 times, and then the SUV rim was balanced according to the motor-wheel-nrom; in other words – only one side was loaded with weights. – Then, after further passes between 285-400g, it was decided to load the rim on a rim. Afterwards, it was also found that the rims needed centring rings and also this was a reason for the restless behaviour. one can. I know even that the bigger a rim is, the more imbalance increases, but there is a standard or rule to deduce to where it is still OK and from when the oven is out??? Since it is difficult to find out at US rims anyway up to how much kg a rim is loadable (with me nothing is punched as usual), then the problem with the imbalance comes up and the so-called new tires also have the identification 4604, which also says everything. I know that this was the last purchase there, but ever zt is first the child

  • Does anyone know this tire ? Fate AR620 Eximia

    Moin! Does anyone know about you and can say a little bit about driving characteristics? I’m not interested in tickling out the last km/h in the curve. Ride rather calmly and sensibly. I would be more interested in braking down and running calmly. According to the test, the braking characteristics should be good especially on wet road… Fate 215/45 R17 87 W AR620 Eximia I’m curious about your experiences

  • Inexperienced newcomer needs help!!!

    Hello, I hope you can help me here. The following thing: My car has steel rims with summer tires on it. I would like to keep the summer tires on aluminium rims (because of the look). The tires have the following information: 155/65 R14 So I have to look after 14-inch rims with 4-hole. Now I find beautiful rims everywhere, but do not know if the tires fit on it. Bsp (which I found): 14-inch, 4-hole (so far, so good), FEGENBREITE 5.5 J, EinPRESSTIEFE 35 LOCHKREIS 100 How do I find out the hole circle, the press-in depth and the rim width? Or do the tyres fit on this aluminium rim even without the identical sizes of the steel rim? Would be very grateful for a quick and easy-to-understand answer.

  • Registration of wheels and tyres

    Hello, I know the topic is already 1000 times I have been looking for more than an hour but somehow never found the right one. That’s why I have a new topic again. So I have the following problem I am a complete Newbi in terms of cars. I drive a Kia Ceed and at the moment I have 15 inch steel rims and 195/65 R15 91 H tires on it, which are also registered in the vehicle license. Now I can get from a well-known new complete wheels for the summer. They are also from a nem Kia Ceed but there are 16 inch steel wheels with 205/55 R16 91 V tires. What do I have to do now the tires / rims have to be registered. If you get an expert report where exactly I have to have something done (Ämter/Tüv etc.) and what costs me about the fun. Hope you can help me. Thanks already.

  • Tyres on eBay/ Registration

    Hello together, if I buy new complete bikes for my BMW how does it look like with the registration? At the moment there are registered in the vehicle certificate 205R16. I would like to climbers but original BMW complete bikes 225R17 (mixed tyres). A BMW dealer told me, since they are original tyres I don’t have to do anything. Is that true? Do I have to have nothing registered in the vehicle certificate by the TÜV? Or do I need an additional paper for the tyres, that then together with the (unchangeable) Is the vehicle registration valid?? Greetings

  • ForFour, 453 of 2016: roof antenna, replacement for rod *and* socket

    Hello together With my wife’s smart, not only the roof antenna rod, but also the base has been damaged some time ago – no spare rod can be screwed in. I covered the hole with adhesive tape (photo). Half a year ago I ordered a replacement in the official Smart workshop, finally arrived – and now the round foot of the new rod does not fit into the rectangular border of the screw mount of the new socket, obviously false base The workshop discusses with the manufacturer. As I fear from experience that further months may pass: Is there perhaps a suitable, compatible solution from the accessory market, *including* socket? Then I could have it installed at a normal car radio store (roof sky removed and so…). Otherwise I call at scrap dealers in the area, maybe they have slaughtered such a part times and in stock. Thank you for your advice Tino

  • Error code P2243 / P2244 – Lambda before cat, but voltage is measured

    Hello, with my Smart 453 with 70ps. the engine warning light is displayed. I read this out, and then comes the error P2243 (at AutoDoctor) and P2244 at CarScanner. Both should however indicate a fault of the Lambda probe in front of the cat. If I look at the voltages of the two probes: Lambda 1 and Lambda 2 is then, Lambda 1 is constant at 1.28V and Lambda 2 without gas also at 1.28V but I give gas then it goes down and then up again. If I really miss it Then the probe before the cat should control the whole mixture, for that the voltage must then vary. And the probe after the cat should remain constant. If the after the cat fluctuates this should be a sign of a problem with the cat. So now I see the Lambda 2 regulated depending on the gas and Lambda 1 is constant. Is the Lambda 2 the probe before the cat? From the Logic I would have thought that the Lambda 1. Does someone know that? and if Lambda 2 is in front of the cat, and this now regulates, what exactly can the error be? If I delete the error it will come back even after more or less short time. Thanks already

  • Check engine lights up.

    Hello Together, I have a FourFour 0.9 with 90hp with 66000 km. The following problem is current. — first the motor lamp sporadically lit up. Then I switched spark plugs and Lufi. Then a time well 7nd lamp remained out. — now after a full gas acceleration the lamp lights permanently and in the upper area lacks power. I have no smoke back and otherwise the engine runs round. Never changed the fuel filter. Can it be the filter or does the turbo have a way? Cruise control is no longer possible. The driving method is normal, rather retired and mostly 20-40 km. No heating in the upper speed range. For conjectures or aids I would be grateful.

  • Smart forfour Bj2017 Central locking problem

    Hello, I have a problem with my wife’s car, and he does the following : when I open the central lock with the key, this problem goes without problem when I get out of the car again and try to close the car Unfortunately, the connection and unlocking does not work anymore or only sporadically. There is always a clapping but no locking. I noticed now that the key also partly reacts very sensitively even if I just stroke over it, he tries to unlock or lock what only succeeds once in a while. Sometimes the key only works when I move it or shake it, start it and drive it easily. Have already checked all doors, switch key battery, disconnected vehicle battery from time to time. Here is a video of the situation.

  • Presentation – Change from VW up! to Mazda3

    Hello dear forum community, I would like to take the opportunity and introduce myself to the Mazda3 forum: Hot Florian, am 26 years old and come from the beautiful Austria. The last 4 years brought me a VW ecoup! from A to B. He is a loyal companion and for about 3.50 € fuel costs on 100km probably one of the most economical cars on the market at present. Unfortunately, the supply quality/number of tank possibilities in recent years has not improved significantly, the incident in September 2016 (Explosion VW Touran during gas refuelling) even leads for a short time to the complete sales stop (also in Austria). All this compulsion to look for an alternative, the Mazda3 I liked very much at the show in 2013. Since the announcement of the facelift I have dealt more intensively with this car and finally completed a test drive last week. I was enthusiastic and afterwards together with the my wish-to-drive g configured: Mazda3 Sport Revolution G120 White Mica (25D) Navigation With the first offer I then made myself smart online and contacted other dealers. Finally, my dealer in the neighboring town met me so far that I signed the purchase contract today. Now I have to wait until the end of July, until my new vehicle is delivered… I am looking forward to a lively exchange with you!
