  • ringtones when putting on the belt

    hello, I had suggested the question, how can you switch off the driver’s seat from the warnon system while not buckled, for example if a dog or a package is located there. there have been many suggestions, software via taxi and or USA software. I have now found a simple solution. yesterday I cut off a belt on a shotgun seat. the holder in the existing passenger seat clicked, and so the warnon turned off. if a passenger is driving with a car vers chwinds the holder in the glove rack. m.f.g mercedesgrey

  • V50 MY04 BiXenon?

    Hello, since today I am finally proud owner of a V50 with MY04, Summum, DPF in electric silver. I am very satisfied with the car and extremely positive surprised. There are however 2 small things, I was of the opinion with Summum would be Bi-Xenon? I have only a normal lens and a light width regulation in the dashboard. Has there ever gone something wrong, or did I get lost? 2. I have a knarzen somewhere from behind, rather 2… The 1. sounds like it is coming from the door at the back right & the 2nd seems to come from the blind, give it like-minded ones who can report similar things? Wants to sound and expand the shutters, because I didn’t read much good about it ^^ MfG

  • Urgently looking for help – BC failure

    Hello, have already found 2 posts on my problem, but none was with final solution. Had a few months ago the following problem: display SRS airbag defective, urgent maintenance, then power steering defective, then flashed the whole display with all the displays on and then everything was dark, air conditioning didn’t work anymore, only the radio was still running. In the workshop n software update was made, for which I also had to cover 55 euros, although still in the used car warranty bi n (V50 2.0 D with first registration 04/04, I bought it in January). And now it started again with the display failure. Be in the workshop again today, but would like to know if one of you has found a solution? Should I insist that the control unit is changed? Thank you in advance, Greeting Carmen

  • VRSCDX Night Rod Special

    Hello together, as a professional beginner (bikernewcommer) I have a question. If it makes sense to start directly with an HD, what is your opinion and if “yes”, I should leave the bike in its original state until riding practice and experience are available or directly put the bike together as I would like it from the optics and performance.

  • 451 Wear test possible rear brake pads without disassembly?

    Hello professionals, is a wear test (visibility test) of the rear brake pads possible without disassembly? Before I have to mutate again to the toddler and crawl under the smartie … Does anyone know something about this? I forgot to take off the brake drums during the motor conversion in November … I really had the nose full and no buck on further disassembly, since I have completely overhauled my smart back and restored it. So further components disassembly, dryish, sam derusting, painting, etc.

  • Smart 450 sometimes doesn’t start

    Hello guys, maybe someone here in the forum knows the problem and could offer technical assistance because the smart friend is at the end with his Latin. The Smart 450 (petrol / BJ 2006) of my parents, jumped only sporadically a year ago. In the evening normally off, next morning nothing. Everything looked normal, he just didn’t jump on, Starter says no beep. At noon again tried, zack was there, as if nothing had been before. That he did a few times. Then off to the Fr But it’s only 11 months. Now he’s been pulling around again. Sometimes he starts, sometimes he doesn’t. … and again to the friendly one. Apparently he decorroded some cables and controlled the box under the driver’s seat. That only lasted 14 days, in which he jumped again reliably. Now he starts to start again and sometimes not. The friendly one is at the end with his findings, says only: “That would be de r first smart with such a persistent problem. Could the little one have a CPU problem ? Board break ? Something with the immobiliser possibly ? , ignition lock ? Something with the control of the start ? Could it be the ABS rings ? Here was exchanged for fast , 14 months ago , only ONE . As already mentioned : Smart has allegedly tested a lot , but finds nothing . Some „ random problem but it must be !! Maybe here someone had the same problem , which nn finally could be solved. …. except to buy a new car 😉 Greetings from HH Toddy

  • V70 worth his money?

    Hi there, hope this thread doesn’t exist exactly like this. I’m new here and I’ve already read through one or the other article as a v70 driver, and I’ve received valuable hints. I like my car (especially because of its beautiful design), but as much as I’d like to get the new D5 with 185hp now, I’m just not ready to add more than 50,000 euros for a car that is annoying with many little things: – Rain sensor: does what he wants, just not what he wants, should – Driver’s seat: squeaky and crunchy – Wheels grind at full impact (refitted original Volvo rims with 225 tyres registered as standard in the vehicle license) – RTI Navi: No comparison to the devices installed in German manufacturers. Target guidance often wrong (partially huge detours), constant recalculations, hardly any traffic jams, poor display quality of the card… – Hazy, heavy circuit – Holpriges suspension In addition, a processing quality is added inside, which does not fit a 50,000 Euro car: – Cheap looking, not angle adjustable middle armrest – Cracking in the driver’s seat, which always occurs when starting – Open visible screws on the inside of the door – Use of cheap plastic materials (e.g. for the facing of the steering column, air outlet for the foot space of the rear seats (I accidentally bumped into the car with the vacuum cleaner tube, after that he had detached himself from his holder. You want to see a really super cheap version of this topic, look under your driver’s seat), door panel, door handles, luggage room blind, etc. – poor leather quality (even after 3 years very hard and cracked despite good care) – and and and and… This list could be continued. In principle you already know all that. These are maybe small things, but honestly: can you not expect something else for a car in this price range? Have you also got a I still have a 10-year-old Audi 80 convertible, which is processed three times better than my V70. And can still be switched with my little finger. A friend of mine has the new A6 with 2.7 liter diesel engine. Also costs no more than the V70 and is processed by another star. Don’t get me wrong, doesn’t want to advertise Audi here, but I would be interested to know if you have the price le is there a relationship with Volvo o.k.? Greetings, Bartimaus

  • Purchase advice Omega A 2.6 or 3.0

    Moin moin zusammmen, As the title already says, I would need a purchase consultation. Drive at the moment an Omega A Caravan 2.0i and want to lay me in the foreseeable future a new Omega A, because the tooth of time is quite nags on my beautiful Omi. Quasi a heirloom from the father . 2.6 or 3.0 l is now the question, since I want to be on the road a little faster in the future. Now questions arise with me about the higher fuel consumption, entertainment costs and as mentioned, acceleration and F the characteristics of the respective Omega ́s. I have heard that the 2.6l should not have a particularly more pass-through compared to the 2.0i, only the V-Max is correspondingly higher with significantly more fuel consumption. Can one of you confirm this to me or do you notice the 0.6l displacement and 50 or 35Ps clearly? Do you have the chance at the moment to get a 3000 24V limousine, does this eat now significantly more fuel with appropriate driving mode, i.e. not exactly faster rides? Would you like to upgrade there I just have a fable for the Omega A and this car is just a way of life for me. Only as a student all this must be reasonably affordable. I would be very happy about some answers and advice

  • New dress for old moose

    I think about it to my companion, who has already been on the hump for a good 15 years to treat a beautification of the varnish. He is otherwise good in shot and he should stay in the family for a few more years. Since I am not the learned painter, I play with the idea of doing this in connection with two or three holiday days abroad. Does any of you have experiences with this (e.g. in Poland) and can possibly even provide me with contact details?
