  • Piaggio MP3 400ie LT : Tax increased from 8 euros to 84 euros !?

    Servus ! Since June 2009 my father owns a Piaggio MP3 400ie LT, i.e. with car registration. According to the previous formula of 2€ / 100ccm the vehicle was tax-friendly very cheap! But now came a letter from the tax office which has the calculation basis on 21,07€/100cc more than tenfold !?!?!? Our vehicle was admitted according to the papers by the way on 02.07.2010. So exactly one day after the reference date 01.07.2010 ! Thus the tax rate should be considered as a car indisputably, Or ? Did other MP3 LT drivers get the same cover letter ? Are there ways to avoid the increase ? Thank you already ! Addendum : Have me by now made a little more clever and came across information in separate MP3 forums . Now I just wonder why the vehicle was taxed after the first registration according to NEW law – but a year later then suddenly after the old ? Did contradiction already bring something to someone ?

  • Reasons (safety philosophy) for limiting to 45 km/h?

    I didn’t really find anything on the subject, so I’m simply asking: what reasons have actually led to the Europe-wide limitation of the 50 ccm class to 45 km/h? Why exactly this value? Are there any concrete studies or justifications that have been and will be cited for this limitation? I’m seriously interested in the underlying safety philosophy. All the world is excited about this limitation, but I don’t necessarily want to create a thread in which I just want to know what philosophy is behind this concrete value. Greeting Michael

  • Gilera Nexus 500 no longer jumps after battery replacement! Immobilizer???

    Hello, I changed the battery a few days ago on my Nexus 500 i.e. 2004 with a disposable spear. The first times it ran quite normal and now it doesn’t start any more. The starter spins and the fuel pump runs too. Only the ignition spark does not get it. I checked all fuses and they are ok. Have seen in the net that probably there have been problems with the Piaggio/gilera. Is there a possibility to deactivate the immobilizer? Or is there ever a and this problem is known and it lies somewhere completely different? Thank you for your help!

  • Question to all class “A” owners 🙂 .

    Hello together, no, this is not a “what does the driver’s license cost” thread. I just wanted to know from you how much you paid for your class A driver’s license. Preferably with pre-owned class B. Please enter in EUR. Does anyone still know how much duty you need for hours (Theo+Praxis) ? As already mentioned, with pre-owned class B (PKW). I would like to get some offers tomorrow and would like to have some comparisons. Thank you for your help !! Greeting ElBardo

  • ECU reset

    Hello guys, I have a question. I freed the motor control unit by removing a fuse of 12V for about 15 minutes from voltage. After resetting the fuse the engine started, but did not want to go into idle, and went out. That repeated itself three times. At the fourth start I gave some gas, and everything was fine again, dare to drive, also idle is ok. Well my question, because the search yielded many results, but only not the fact how to A short answer to what needs to be done exactly after the reset, or a link where all this is described. Thanks B205R

  • Crack in the cracker

    Hello all, my Saab 9-5 Kombi, Built 12/00, 98.000 km, has a nice crack in the dumpster. After careful estimation of my workshop I would be with 900 Euro incl. material. Now I have heard that you can possibly also weld the part. Does anyone have experience with it? Which workshop can do this? How expensive is this? Does the dumpster have to be expanded to do this? Or does someone possibly have to sell a dumpster for this model? Greeting from Unna County

  • Eisenmann ESD with MSD?!

    Halli Hello and a nice 3rd Advent 🙂 I would like to hang an iron man under my TT. Could you tell me if it is enough to screw the ESD underneath or if the MSD is absolutely necessary? I would like to have a sporty sound that won’t be annoying for a long time! – I am lying there with the Eisenmann “gold-richig”? ..or?! mfg from Berlin

  • Room wonder up to 30t€

    Hello, I’m beginning to despair. Somehow there doesn’t seem to be a new car for me, but I hope you’ll teach me a better one! Basically, it should be a new car, with nothing against day registrations. Optimal would be around 25t €, but up to 30t € would be ok if it is the right car. However, it should be noted that the prices refer to Austrian prices! In question come both Kombi, Mini-Van as well as SUV, whereby Kobi and SUV have the advantage. Gasoline ranges v The car has to have: What I don’t need: I don’t really care about the brand, it should be nothing of the VW group, which I exclude. Otherwise open to everything! Whether Asian, European or American! Appearance is secondary, but doesn’t have to be so ugly now. A more modern/weather design can be quiet. I’ve already looked at them: probably were a few more ! I’m not ready to give up yet, but if there’s really nothing more suitable, I’ll probably have to make cuts and most of the times that’s the transferable passenger seat. I can’t understand why this is such a problem and unfortunately it’s quite important to me, because I often transport longer things, where that would be very practical and with one reason for the new purchase. Even if that certainly restricts the circle of suspects very much, I would be for everyone Tip grateful! Especially with regard to models that might be released in 2018 it might be worth waiting for. I’m not in a hurry, but I would like to have the new car with me in spring 2019. Sorry that this has become a little longer now! mfg Andreas

  • Search car for two dogs

    Hi, I’ve been driving a Renault Megane GT 220 Grand Tour since 2013. I’m actually very happy with the car, but it could be a little bigger for our Golden Retrievers.I now had the Talisman in my sights but the reports about the Talisman are unfortunately not the best.Which vehicles would be recommended? The trunk should be big enough for two Golden Retrievers and the loading edge should not be too high.The car should nevertheless make something visually, so no Kangoo,Ber Lingo etc.Priced he should cost after deduction of discount around 3000€

  • New car purchase Euro 6 is not equal to Euro 6???

    Hello experts, please someone can help me with the following question on the jumps . Purely factually would be helpful, without evaluation (e.g. stupid mirror article etc. it is not about the article In the following article is a diagram (source Umweltbundesamt, Kraftfahrtbundesamt) It can be seen there that Euro 6 has a NOx limit of 80mg/KM.http://www.spiegel.de/…/…-neue-diesel-sinnvoll-sinn-a-1196019.html On the VW website are currently still available e.g. VW Tiguan as well as letztedl I sold all VWs (except the UP) with Euro 6w and have e.g. at the Tiguan in the details the following info: …. Emission classEURO 6 W further emission values Nitrogen oxides (NOx) Fuel I: 47.3 mg/km Particle emission Fuel I: 0.0400 mg/km Non-methane hydrocarbons (NMHC) I: – …. Is the nitrogen values NOx on the safe side? What remains unclear, however, whether one will get problems with a car of the Euro 6w standard instead of the newer standard 6d in the inner cities . Where is Euro 6w to be classified, this is about Euro 6b (see page 7 in the PDF below). And according to Kraftfahrtbundesamt, these cars can only be registered until 31.08.2018. So if you order a car now and only allow it in Sept. 2018, this would not be possible. See info from Kraftfahrtbundesamt:http://www.kba.de/…/sv1_007_announcement_pdf.pdf?… Greeting D. K.
