  • Dip aluminium rims: Plastidip, Foliatec, Mibenco.. Reviews??

    Servus, my aluminium rims have unfortunately suffered a bit in the past years. Since now already new tires have to be on it, it is possible to remove the tires from the rims, once to make the rim horn beautiful again, and if necessary to dipping in a desired color… This should happen apparently only after the installation of the new tires. How good is the durability of the spray foil?? Can one easily with it into a washing line? Are the things high-druch cleaner fixed?? Would I on the one S like to save the money, for an expensive rim painting, on the other side however not necessarily throw money out to the window, because the foil is no good. Thanks in advance!

  • Winter complete wheel with black steel wheels Golf 7

    Hello, I’m looking for black steel rims as a winter complete wheel for my Golf 7 (140 hp, gasoline, EZ 2013). That’s apparently not so easy, because different online suppliers could not guarantee (independent of the tire) that the steel rims are delivered in black color. Steel rims as a winter complete wheel is no problem, but as I said, there is no colour allowance. Some actually also deliver the rims in “Alu-Optik/Silver”. e.g. I had received an email on request to the customer service, which there is no possibility to influence the color choice at the order. If a withdrawal after goods receipt would then unfortunately be due with tiresdirectly 30 euro fee per rim…! If a timely cancellation still due still fees..? Well, don’t know if that is still right..? Anyway, someone has a provider where I can definitely get said steel complete wheel in black version..?

  • Is a winter tire better at smooth than a summer tire

    Hi, yes, I know that with snow, a winter tire is more superior than a summer tire. I’m about to buy the Michelin CC, because I don’t need winter tires for the 2-3 days of snow a year. But: How is that at low temperatures when ice is freezing? Is a winter tire better than a summer tire or GJR with summer characteristics?

  • How much power does the starter really need? Question about battery coupler

    Hi, I have two batteries in the car, a starter battery and an AGM battery. The latter for the supply of devices and as a start backup. I want to pair them now with a battery coupler for various reasons, such as Cyrix-ct 12/24 V 120 A and 230 A. To charge all this is no problem, but how does it look at the start? Suppose the starter battery weakens or is completely dead, then I can manually bridge the coupler and take the second battery to help. e Cyrix devices can handle 180A start current (120A version) and 500A (230A version). But how do I know how much current my starter actually needs? The starter has 1.1kW, which is equivalent to a current of ~92A. But is that really all? I have read a lot here in the forum and in others about it, because one number is thrown around the head up to 450A. The whole thing must work even with clear minus degrees, where the starter will have to do safely. The question is, Is the 120A version, which can be about twice the start currentStrength of what the starter should theoretically need? Or is the 230A version with 500A start current necessary? It is also a question of money, the large version costs twice as much, but also a question of power consumption and size. Thank you for helpful hints! I would like to not discuss at this point the sense / nonsense of such a construction.

  • Fraud Car Purchase

    Hello, I have a question, maybe one of you can help me!! I’ve been looking for a Passat combo for a little while, and I found only the very curious seller who moved to England, wanted to transfer the money etc.pp!!! The typical scams. I have become attentive to one, which I unfortunately can not estimate. 2004 year of construction around the 70000 km down 1.9 TDI. He wants to have around the 5000 Euro. He seems to have researched about Goo himself. gle to be a lecturer at a French university. He probably lives with his wife in France, but has a house here in Germany. He would come to Erfurt next week to handle the sale. He justifies the sale with the fact that he leased a Touareg with his wife and for that he probably borrowed 13,000 euros. I would be very grateful for any opinion. Thank you!

  • Airbags Shelf life expires

    Many vehicles of the year 94 or 95 have now airbags in them that have expired. I don’t know who checks that? The Tüv then? That means all those who have such a vehicle must have your airbag exchanged expensively or you buy a new complete airbag steering wheel in the accessories.

It comes out in about 4-5 weeks for the engine and transmission control. We have to transfer this software into your vehicle and then your problem should be fixed (hopefully!!!).

  • Citroen C5 2.2HDI 200 Buy Recommendation?

    I’m looking for a car for the moment! Since I drive 60.000km a year I need a car which is not so much used and is not even so expensive in maintenance. So I just have to enter my wish data and got a Citroen C5 2.2 HDI 200. The car has 200ps and should cost around the 18.00€. Exactly what I’m looking for. But now I have a few questions. 1.
