I say goodbye to the R-Forum. I am finally rid of my Sch*** car – after years of trouble and constant visits in the workshop *jupiii*joy* Since certainly not many R-Class are changed, I would like to keep back with concrete statements and not put the list of defects online; and it is sea very long! Too bad, because I was very excited about the ride comfort, but the R-Class of my opinion is not suitable for our big cities: – Parkplat zsuche can disperse – some parking garages are absolutely taboo …. and fuel consumption is simply no longer up to date!

W 126 – engine death
Hello, my W 126 build year 1991 has been quite unpleasant for a few weeks. It just goes out and doesn’t want to start again. At first it was relatively irregular ..so 1 or 2 times a month that the car went out abruptly. No advance notice from engine stutters or oil pressure problems. Usually it then jumped after a few try again and ran smoothly. A week ago then the crankshaft sensor was replaced. Now it goes even more often without advance warning. and starts even more reluctantly.. so estimated 5-10 minutes start then it runs 2-3 seconds and goes out again. Gas it takes only short to then go out again. There is no rule for going out.. after a long drive.. after a short drive.. engine cold.. engine warm.. light out on light.. the only rule that there is that it always goes out more often. Fuel problem? new filters in.. candles? new.. injection? why does it run like a sewing machine when it is running? cams wave sensor? Air mass meter? Sensor otherwise where? Age weakness? The car has now driven me 330.000 km without any problems through the area… has turned 3 accident opponents to total damage.. unindebted.. so he went with me through thick and thin.. and now he forces me with one eye constantly to push for parking bays in case he just has to make a break again.. Who knows how my 126er does his duty again without complaint? Oh and now also an ADS lamp in the arma shines turenbrett.. because I don’t have such a damper system… very strange… So I’d be really grateful for a few tips… because of course… if the box sees a workshop from the inside, of course, it runs like a sewing machine all the time…

cl 600 with 700hp chip tuning
I have a totally cut CL 600 from a Russian reimport at a mock price. To my surprise I read in the papers that he has received a chip tuning and says and writes 700 hp. When driving, I thought that must be more than 500 hp. Alone the intermediate sprints — 80-120 in 1,2 sec. — 200-230 in 1,3sec. –300-320 in 2,2sec. are very brutal forces. According to papers, suspension and brakes are adapted, but sometimes I have the feeling that the if the brakes are a little weak on the chest, can you have something like this tested? Greetings tognino

S 320 CDI (W221): Navi-Ansage versus Radio Loudspeak
Hello ! I have a question that an experienced S-Class driver (W221) can possibly answer easily: In the case of navigation announcements, the CD or radio volume switches down as a rule, so that the hints can be heard well, or ? So I know this anyway from BMW and Audi. With my new S-Class this is strangely not so. When I listen to music, I have to make the navigation voice even louder, so that both audio sources roar against each other. my Mercedes dealer also said that this was strange, but he didn’t know the solution so far or would like to ask what could last (hm …) How do you put it, or is it “the state of the art” ? Greetings Tom PS: Otherwise I’m very satisfied, and he wasn’t in the workshop either (the predecessor, a 7-er, had already at least 4 workshop visits after 1.ooo km on the hump…)

Complaint Absence
Dear Mit-Motortalker, this morning I read a thread that just appalled me. It swarmed with insults in a way that would lead to an immediate blocking of the user nice126 and balero and a deletion of the posts in another forum. Does the moderation sound here ? Or do you all feel the following quotations as an appropriate tone of association ? Dear Greetings, Pavlok HOW KRANK IS YOU OWNLY??????? instead of constructive contributions write D u just garbage and shit!!! Sign up here at last (or since this officially does not work – don’t come back), so that we can get rid of you. You’re all over the place, nobody likes you anymore!!! Get into psychiatric treatment!!! I think you are (and that includes !!! at least!!! 56x different motor talk users) just mentally ill. everyone else (!!!) would have already shown you several times. The prosecutor doesn’t like to see multiple criminal charges (Knast!!! ) Especially not with the criminal record of some, you little hen Du!!! This sick little girl

Family car up to 18k€
Hello dear Motor-Talk municipality, I am looking for a new vehicle for my wife and the rest of the family, budget up to 18 k€ about. We are a family with two children (11 and 14 years old) + dog, mileage about 15tkm/pa, mainly city and short distances. Currently a Peugeot 308 SW 120 VTI, BJ 2008 is present, is also quite ok so far, especially the room offer in this class is already great. The 120 hp engine is however quite tired and is not really fun, therefore the desire the car I myself have a BMW 318d touring as a service car, great car, but as a family car for our “average family” new anyway unaffordable, therefore at best needed as 318it with 50 tkm on the clock an alternative. Premium also doesn’t have to be necessarily (especially if I see the whole gammelden C-classes from the 00s every day…). My wife somehow has a VW affinity, which I a I would rather have the urge to have a little more engine capacity, but without a loader and as easy and stable as possible (if there is still such a thing). The car should also not be older than 3 years. I can’t really estimate the useful life yet, the plan is “to the bitter end”, but you never know how to pack it…. I know, this is all a bit unspecific, but it’s all a bit unspecific, but Maybe you have some suggestions that will make it easier for me to decide which direction it might go. Thank you in advance for your answers!

Family car for 5,000km/year
Hello I need a new family car for 2 holidays a year and a few WE trips to my parents (~80km per direction). 90% country road / highway. So far I have tortured my Citroen Saxo with it. For 3 people + luggage was actually already too small but I could not separate from it. Now the second child is on the road and it is time for something bigger. A third child will probably not be there. Important to me is a as large a trunk as possible and small With my Citroen Saxo the exhaust is rusted every 2 years. Even if it has disassembled the KAT, this was not a big act thanks to cheap spare parts. However, the fuel consumption, engine power, design, volume, equipment etc. is not important. In the narrow selection Citroen Berlingo are depending on the model with the 650 L trunk and Fiat Doblo with 750 L trunk. In addition, there are also Peugeot partners, Renault Kangoo, Citroen C4 Picasso, Scoda Octavia. What I can’t judge are the repair costs or the reliability. I hope you can give me some tips or even advise against certain models.

First car purchase for commuters
Hello together, as a freshly baked graduate, my hard working life starts in February ;-). That’s why I want to start thinking about the first car purchase. It will probably be like 22,000 km a year as a weekend commuter with a lot of highway. So the most important thing is actually the price per kilometer that comes out the bottom line then. Otherwise I am open to any brand and model. Since I am really a pretty beginner and wouldn’t have had much experience e i like in every respect tips. So prefer to buy from the dealer or private, with how much km, which age and then of course which car. I set the price budget with 10,000 € as maximum, whereby I would prefer half ;-). Also here of course the price/km is most important to me, thought at 500€ purchase price I can save myself full and partial cascade insurance and thus also reduce the running costs. So, hope I forgot nothing and am happy already a Greetings Bigwig Addendum: If it doesn’t change much with the cost, it should be a combo.

Have used cars checked!
I’m about to buy a car and I don’t know how to do it. That’s why I’d like to have the car checked beforehand. I know that you can have it done at TÜV, DEKRA and CheckMyCar. How are the experiences? I find checkmy-car.com in particular very interesting, but they seem to be very new in business. Thank you very much.
