  • Skoda Superb or Kia Optima SW

    Hi dear car friends, I am actually looking for a station wagon with a lot of space on the back seat because we have a reboarder child seat and I can no longer sit in the passenger seat in the Golf Variant. The two mentioned cars have this place. Lying in price with almost the same equipment identical. Should also be about an annual car or newer. Would like to have all Assi systems. Also make a test drive with both on the weekend. Is there something you should pay attention to ? Now comes this blue badge thing. Drive everyone to Berlin Mitte. Kia uses no adblue but probably has Euro 6b. Could that be a problem? In addition, come the seductive 7 year warranty at Kia. Thank you already. LG

  • Little convertible?

    Hello everyone! If I want a SMALL convertible, with the criteria: – Italy easily come through the narrow streets – enough motorized for Alpine passes – maintenance costs manageable – holiday for two with modest luggage (swimming, possibly a small rubber boat, road clothes – summer!) I have found two vehicles that seem useful: – Daihatsu Copen – Smart Roadster To Daihatsu: – Spare parts last until they are there – very frequent service intervals (2 of 3 can I but do it yourself) – well motorized (the newer left-hand handlebar) – probably no more value loss – neat luggage compartment with closed cover – comfortable seats – electric cover – somewhat rusty To smart: – service and spare parts without problems. If something is broken, then quite cheap – no trunk, but luggage carrier outside possible – manual cover – ruched gear shift – very uncomfortable seats Alternative: Opel Tigra. Features: – boah ey, boring and a bit prolific – Geä ck and service no problem – a little big… Nissan Micra Cabrio/Peugeot Cabrio: – Stay away from me with French people! StreetKaa is also not an option. Mitsubishi? Then rather Opel (from the look)… Is there anything else that could be considered? Lotus Elise – well…. There’s nothing missing from it (it’s fun, though). FG

  • Which car? The agony of choice

    Hello dear community , I need a new car , but that still has until August time I just want to inform myself in advance and decide for a model that I then when it is time only has to search for the model A few informations: maximum budget: 500€ Performance: minimum 150ps Km: up to 175,000 First registration: from 2003 Maintenance costs: Should be within the framework I will drive about 12,000 kilometers a year, of which 7000 only to the vocational school so highway, and the rest privately (mix from ku 70 Km to and 70 Km back so 140 times 5 days a day are the 700 Km, have 10 block weeks throughout the year so 7000 Km a year. Therefore, I don’t think it is worth a diesel, I need a station wagon because I have a dog and a transport box. I would be interested in an Audi A4 B6 Is there any other alternative to this Audi? I like optically and indoors very well, I thought of the 1.8T, I also read that the 3.0 Quattro should be very quiet but the consumption scares me.. Which car would you advise me to do? and with the Audi which engine is in my case in question?

  • Buying advice Petrol Limo 200+PS with reasonable consumption to pull hangers with 1,7t

    Hello, I need some ideas for cars, which I should look at and are interesting for me. First of all the basic conditions: Budget +/- 15000 Euro driving performance around the 10-15k km mainly rural road year 2010+ would be my favorite 200 hp+ petrol trailer load of min 1.7t consumption should be appropriate. Named 15l/100km I would find happy, but 7l/100km I also don’t expect necessarily despite new technology The car should last a longer time. I put value on running culture u What came to my mind: Mercedes C250 – I dropped from 280, because the consumption can shoot up quickly, but Opel Insginia 2.0 turbo with 220 or the 250hp I find both models very chic. Does the Insignia really use so much? So 11 liters in normal driving would I consider the performance as normal. Do you have any fuel wonders that you could recommend? The maintenance should of course also be within the scope of this. . Since I have already read about good consumption values in the S class, but if then something gets broken then probably still expensive, because I have to go to the workshop. I myself have no idea of car trade. Thank you

  • Winter suitability

    Moin moin… After the snow chaos I would like to note a couple of advantages and disadvantages of the Saab in terms of winter suitability: Advantages : – equipped with stand- & seat heating very comfortable – safe driving behaviour when equipped with winter tires – windows fogged hardly—-good ventilation – good illumination of the roads in general – generally good traction – balanced….breaks not fast – Innerholm does not spoil by double seals Disadvantages: – absolutely sensitive Fron tscheibe ( small stone blows by road salt ?!?!!) – sensitive electronics ( failure of the actuator for air valve ( for the second time !!! ), windscreen wash nozzle heater failed , – rapper, flapper, Schepper ( more I don’t have to say ) – gear gear gear worse switchable Does anyone have similar experiences to report ?? Greetings Swedishmoose

  • the damn AGR valve already broken again

    My Saab 1.9 TID 9-3, built in 2005…117000 Tkm, 2 years ago to have new AGR valve installed, 4 months ago to have new AGR valve installed, yesterday on the Metz-Berlin route…the power drops… then leaves more after …the engine control lights up ….. I already know, drive to the next parking lot, call the ADAC…he is very fast there…I say what’s going on….he reads the error….but can only determine the error number and not describe text daz u (his software only lasts up to the 2.2 diesel engine)…..then he takes his hammer…happens a little bit on the valve…deletes the error and we make a small test drive…..Check engine is off, engine runs and pulls as it should….I drove through the remaining 300 km well. But what now? Is the fucking valve already ready for change? Isn’t there a better solution than to call the ADAC because of a few hammer strokes? Can one possibly call such an AGR valve than Put the spare part in the car and when Check Engine lights up is changed quickly and continues. At home you can let the thing pass through the washing machine (of course wrapped in a bag) you have a clean spare valve again. Or does the self-installation of the carried AGR valve do nothing because you can not access the software to delete the error memory ? MfG Isenhagen

  • Engine off – does not start anymore

    Hello, I stayed yesterday with my Saab 9-3 Aero MY03. Vehicle just went off during the ride – no inspection, no error medication, nothing at all. Luckily, I only drove about 20 km/h at the time…not even thinking what could have happened on the highway… I then tried to restart the car, but didn’t go any more. From time to time he once again took one to two seconds and then he went out again. Benin was still a good quarter full. Today it went then ga r no more. Then only with tow truck went to the workshop. Does anyone have an idea??? Many greetings bcn31

  • Saab 9-3 Cabrio 2006 just bought engine control unit defective

    Good evening, everybody, I’m a Saab newcomer and also new here in the forum. I bought the convertible for the family, as Mopped drove bitsl has become dangerous… On the last Saturday after 10 days of standstill the convertible was bridged by the ADAC with banner booster. I then drove for a long time, but the ignition key did not turn any more. Then the curiosity. Bridging and a new battery on Tuesday brought nothing… I was stunned and got the car in Trier into S Then came after half an hour of the call. Central control unit is defective. Makes 1,200 euros… such a mess. The master said, used ones he does not build for warranty… Can I understand that so far. He said I can’t get past the Saab workshop anyway, because ECUs need to be adapted there.Then I read in the network of repairs of the ECUs. That’s even available with copying the data of the old ECU s. Now my question. Has anyone ever done this before? Would you advise me to invest the 1,200 euros or rather a repair? Greetings from Trier Thomas

  • Saab 9.3 Sports combi v. 2007 Gears sometimes don’t go in, gear oil?

    A short time ago he had an alternator replacement. He had to take out the drive shaft. Here a bit of gear oil ran out. A short time later it started that I sometimes could not get the reverse gear, the first gear or even occasionally the second gear. Now I ask myself is the clutch worn (131000) or is there perhaps too little gear oil in it? How can I control the oil level, I think under the battery holder you can refill gear oil (which?), right? Who k ann da help, thank you in advance says Jürgen
