  • 1.8s vs ibiza 1.4 16v

    I and my buddy have been racing since we have cars always so race on the track who is faster. until now I was always the faster. currently the nen ibiza 1.4 16 with 75ps. in the acceleration icer slower, at end speed also, only on the highway mountain high at 150kmh he can keep up with me. now he wants to get his 85ps ibiza. now I get scared. so endspeed will be the anyway ned faster, my mact according to navi 200kmh and he should drive 180. from nul l on 100 is the 1.8s to make it in 11,5s the ibiza in 11,9s. only what does it look like now on the track with a climb??? have a full shot that the faster is, that would mean I have to do what 🙂 the ibiza weighs also 50kg more also has 5ps less. what do you mean???? I know is a little bit ot. but I’m angry that he can buy a brand new car every 3 years because he got the money in the cradle, and I really need to save to buy a car. and that’s where I want to buy a car. He likes to prove that I’m faster with little money.

  • Climate defective

    Hello, on Friday, when I was finally through the traffic jam on the A3, the 36 degrees hot air suddenly came out of the ventilation at the best cruising speed; in addition, a snoring noise came from the front. Because of the noise I called the ADAC and he recommended me to park at an ADAC contract workshop. Because the climate compressor hung on the normal V-belt and should block the compressor, then… . . so then continue with the rental car. Yesterday then the bad news: Compressor-L ieferzeit = 1 week. The Ford screwdrivers have removed the compressor, installed a shorter belt and I was able to drive home. Angry, the whole… – is this error a Saab disease? Did I run the climate too rarely (the boss said at Ford!)? Where do I get a new compressor? Does the clutch have to be changed with it? Can one test at all and find out whether and which part is defective? That means what do I order? And where do I order? Thank you already in advance for your answers!

  • A question to the the 41kater

    Cover problem the hundredth – times a question to the the41kater Hello – the41kater You seem to be something like Saabgott and can perhaps help me with the diagnosis of my covered 900 II year 96. Symptoms: 1. Open the cover – Ping roof system Check – the cover purrs but the finest and releases the view into the respective weather sky. 2a. Deck then open “short drive to Becker or so” and cover went only without problems – later motor lock ng fifth bolt/cover ears up only to 2/3tels – cover closed nevertheless with short friction to the locking bolts. Lock motor fifth bolt closes. 2b. Deck on then “long drive” and close cover did not work at all. Lock motor did not unlock and accordingly the “ears” did not drive up. 2c. Now it is no matter whether long or short driving by car: cover does not close – meaning I have the famous two-finger-wide gap on the fifth Spri 3. Tech 2 opens and closes the engine in the cover flap – potentiometer from Saab reprogrammed: Deck opens and closes a few times and now the same problems Saab says engine in order control ok. and for his age the cover is top in shot. 4. Again at Saab Tech 2 roof open, roof double with the hammer against the lock motor and the engine unlocks and roof again. So, what can that be, if the Motor must open the roof correctly first unlocked and then locked (that he has to close the cover flap above the tonneau, but with roof too no longer unlocked????????? with great hope that you or someone else here in the forum will prove to be Saab internist and tell me how to proceed. At the dealer you don’t listen to me. “The engine must be new” can’t be, because it works when it opens. “Control must be new” can’t be, since the whole opening/closing-Vo rgang would spin – say the Saabies at the dealer.

  • Emergency program and nail!!!!

    Hello the following question: Today on the highway with wife and child the car suddenly switched on the emergency program on the display it showed only “engine can be destroyed” and “injection check” and “exhaust system check”. To that the car nailed extremely. Then we let ourselves tow away for the time being only into the workshop of the ADAC partenr… which meant it was only an injector (einspeztüse)n … Since the workshop is 100 km away we let ourselves tow home to our workshop. Which meant it was the control chain ????? Honestly I don’t know what I should believe above all. I would just like to know other opinions none of the two workshops had connected a diagnostic device!!!?!!! Vehicle starts and drives also engine runs a little restless and nailing extremely only running program what could be that please write me your personal opinion !!!!!!

  • Engine oil quantity/specification for Renault Megane Grandtour “Bose” year 2015

    Drive the Megane Grandtour “Bose” cdi 130 HP since 7/2015. The supplier recommended an oil change at 3000 km. Just deal with the costs for this oil change. Got from a dealer an offer which was about 195,00 €. That seems incredibly high to me. As information was given to me that an oil quantity of 5.5 l is on alone and this is about 103.00 €. On the internet I found that the oil per litre is only 6.90 €. Thus a Ges 38,00 € for the oil. Does anyone have any experience and does someone consider the dealer’s recommendation for an oil change at approx. 3000 km necessary? Where can you find information about the oil quantity and the specificity for the Megane Grandtour at all? There is nothing in the operating instructions. P.S. Finally, a shortcoming: The return camera at my Bose no longer shows a picture.

  • Cooling water loss

    Hi, everybody! I have to refill about 1 liter of water every day at our Mini One 98PS. He probably does not lose this water by defective hoses or containers, but only in driving operation. I had it pulled off for several hours in the workshop. Loss: negative… At the moment, not the biggest problem, but when the temperatures continue to fall, it makes for a little fun every morning before the start of the journey to make the creepy refill act, but above all that the necessary Frost protection is missing. We fill in normal water each time. Now the question: Who knows this problem with this engine? Which gasket is there in the warm run that leaves so much water? Or is it not a gasket at all, but the motor/cylinder head as such (worst case)? Thanks in advance for all participation…

  • Change fuel filter (without venting)

    Hello, I’m new here in the forum and now I’m trying to be a screwdriver. Currently I have a Renault Master 2.5 dCi 120 and I want to change the fuel filter. Is it possible to change this Renault series without separate venting as far as possible and all right? In this case, I would change the filter relatively easily and let the engine run 3 x 30 seconds without gas for fuel feed, as advised in the forum? If this is not advisable or would not work and the car does not start, can I then fill in a little diesel in the filter as a starting aid in this Renault series? Thanks already in advance Sabine

And since it could be there how can I solve the lever that controls all this?? (covering is already gone) Hab gra d talked to my friendly Ford dealer, who has probably never sold such a relay, so rather exclude ?????? cheerz T.

  • New KA failed at HU and AU

    I drive a Ka, BJ 3/2002, 48,000 kilometers. I am a quiet and economical driver, I only drove him out two or three times (Tacho 180 ). When he had to go to the TÜV for the first time, he fell through both the HU and the AU because of the following defects: – valve cover seal leaks (engine was oiled) – brake brakes one side – exhaust gas value at idle speed too high Then I brought the car into my workshop. The idle speed was no longer correct, because a marten bit through a hose, said the workshop master. By the way, the car was three months before (about 4,000 kilometers before) for inspection at Ford Lüttgen in Bergisch Gladbach. But apparently my suspicion was confirmed that I was allowed to pay for this inspection, but it was never carried out. urde. Because if at 48,000 km the coverings were already 100% down, so that they have already ruined the brake discs, one should have seen this already long ago during the inspection (at 44,000 km). The workshops are really bad at the…
