  • Mercedes SL R230 mysterious cracking / snoring back right

    Good evening ladies and gentlemen, the joy of driving with my SL is clouded by non-localizable crackling sounds. I probably have the sound for about a year. When changing load cracks and crunches it. At first I thought a disguise is loose, everything checked, nothing better. Roof tested, and lubricated, everything ok guide vario roof went off, everything OK, the screw has not yet been changed. Uberrollbugel causes similar noises at the attacks, but hebli There were three or four emergency triggers because I like to move the vehicle in the border area (serpentines, riviera etc) after tank plate, no change. All mounts in the area and on the SAM etc tested, everything solid video, in which the noise seems much more extreme: https://youtu.be/7p_zg3y8kFw Do we find a fellow sufferer? Greetings and nitter-free ride

  • US PIck Up Truck Community Cologne

    Hello together, I’ve noticed that it’s probably more useful to create a special topic for this. Would like to draw attention here again to the fact that we (a few buddies and my littleness) decided to create a US PICK UP TRUCK COMMUNITY in Cologne called “The Heartbeat of America”. Of course, there are various Us-Car and Van Clubs. But somehow the PU ́s always seem to be too short… Of course all US car-obsessed people are or welcome Harley freaks, but first and foremost it’s about the topic of US Pick Up. We don’t intend to create a club and thus bind members or commit them in any way. The idea is simply to make contacts to meet either spontaneously or planned for a personal “motor-talk”. Currently we are still looking for a suitable location, far from a Burger King or McDonald ́s restaurants. You can get here in advance. al post, as you stand so to this idea, so that we “hear” how it arrives at you. As soon as we have found a suitable place, I let you know… Greetings from Cologne PS: The Internet address indicated on the LOGO is not activated yet!!

  • The spoilt of choice…300c Touring, Magnum or yet Nitro?…and what engine?

    Hi Because of family growth I have to switch to a car with large trunk and roof racks.Kids , dog and suitcases should fit in already.An Ami should be there already … My favourites : Chrysler 300C Touring , Dodge Magnum , Dodge Nitro or Dodge Yourney … I tend to 300 C Touring and to Magnum , but what motorization ? My questions : What positive and negative experiences have you made with the engines 2.7 – 3.5 – 5.7 and 3.0 CRD (acceleration , Consumption,etc.) and which would you recommend? Do the gasoline engines have a gas system well or can there be problems (gas system recommended) ? Is there a difference between 300C Touring and Magnum (except the optics) ? 300C Touring or Magnum ? I am grateful for every tip and report…

  • My Ami Dream

    Hello! I’m new here, good evening! I have a question, how that is always like with the new ones… I’ve dreamt of an American car for a long time and this dream is to come true soon I’m currently driving a Ford Mondeo 1.8l 2000 year of construction, which I would like to give my wife, since she has got a new job. Recently I was at a car import dealer and I’ve made myself smart. I’ve been suggested odge Charger, Dodge Magnum (both with the 2.7 liter machine) and the Chrysler 300c 3.0Liter. But because I did not want to spend more than 1200€ and then these cars were a little too expensive for me I looked at the Camaro 2000 3.7, Firebird 1999 3.4 and the Mustang 2000 3.8. Now I have read that these cars have not such a good acceleration and there is the point. I am more interested in the “top versions” like the Camaro z28, but I find that the car is quite difficult to I don’t know if you can get a car like this for 1200€?! Or do you have any other suggestions? I use the car as a Daily ,and it shouldn’t be older than 15 years for me and as I said, it should have a bit more pressure. I don’t want to race with it ,only I would like to be able to put down a nice traffic light start. Oh yes, before I forget the car should have automatic at any time. LG

  • Markings of paragraph madness!

    Hello, I am bursting with rage. I have today changed a stretch limousine from Munich to a neighbouring district with 3 letters. Up to the registration plate no problem either. Because the registration office was able to present me new regulations, which state that there is NO issue of motorcycle registration marks for cars anymore! Except only oldtimers and vehicles, which are already registered in the district. Alternative? A full size number plate with self-illuminating sign at the back. t: 150EUR. Apart from the fact that this looks totally shitty, when my license plate holder is empty, and for this the bumper with a license plate is posteriert, I get a decent attachment (adaptation to the bumper) cost of a total of almost 600EUR! I believe myself place immediately what! I should now attach this stupid full size license plate to the round bumper of a TownCar and put power supply from the lid down. That can’t be! Of course, the 355mm license plates were worn. The very short license plates were not available after the vehicle was measured and the license plate holder is probably 2cm too narrow. Does anyone have an idea how to proceed? The vehicle has to drive orders on weekends, and I certainly can’t find a workshop today that will build this self-lit shit properly on me…

  • Car at the rear (door + fender) scratched, what was that? How to proceed?

    Hello, this morning I don’t look at my E90 in the back, and still think: it’s scmutzig, I realize that it’s not dirt, but that there are some bad scratches that I don’t know about. So that you can take a picture, here are two photos:http://www.abload.de/thumb/img_2463_tnboud9.jpg http://www.abload.de/thumb/img_2465_tndlu46.jpg What bothers me the most is that I can’t tell exactly when and where this happened. I have the vehicle. washed a week ago, the scratches were definitely not present. Now it is that it was very cloudy with us the past days, and I also often very late in the dark or in the morning also in the dark into the vehicle. In between I was on the way several times, while shopping, on the company parking place, etc. At my home the vehicle is on the parking space, however often neighbour children play on the property, which also ride sometimes with their scooters, Trak I can’t imagine that they’re causing something like this. For me, it looks more like a strip with a fender when parked in or out. Can you conclude from the scratches on the direction in which the scratches were created? I would be interested: – do you think these are typical traces of a foreign bumper, or rather other damage? How do I get the exact cause? – would you go to the police, and show the whole thing? What do I tell them if I can’t determine exactly the place or time? – the vehicle is fully insured, such damage falls under the insurance cover, if you can’t find the perpetrator? – should I have an expert examine the damage, if so, how do I find a good one, and what does that cost about? – if I have the expert repair done, how much do you value the damage? I know, but for the first time in such a situation, I am grateful for all the tips and hints on how to behave now.

  • Accident causer insurance does not pay… cause would not have paid his contribution…

    Hello, I need your help 🙂 My brother had an accident, he was driven into the car by a child by bicycle. The situation on the right is clear, he is not guilty. The child is well. The accident was directed to the opposing insurance. This sent an expert, he set the amount of damage, with which my brother also agreed. Because he was told that the money would be transferred to his account and did not do anything about it, he called the insurance company. . And now the hammer, they told him that he does not get the damage compensated, because the mother of the boy did not pay the contributions…. That can not be?! He is not responsible for the collection of the open contributions, but the insurance?! And as long as the insurance of the woman does not cancel, after all also compensation claims must be paid, or do I see this wrong? Above all, they send first their own expert….and then something like that? Am to your Meinun? and thank me in advance. Anke

  • How about the drivers???

    Hello, at the conclusion of my insurance, the consultant/seller said that you only have to specify more drivers when they drive regularly. It is my case that at most my friend or a family member borrows the cart when they need a station wagon (all are over 25). That might happen once every 6-8 weeks, otherwise I only drive. Therefore, I did not specify any more drivers at the conclusion. Now the police came yesterday, there was that only I am a driver. Pas Or can it go wrong??? Greetings Katrin
