  • Experience with brake discs and pads

    Unfortunately I haven’t found a suitable thread yet. Since I have to change the front axle with discs, I would be interested in what experiences you have had. Is it worth the extra charge for the EBC Black Dash with Red Stuff coverings or what good alternatives for example Brembo still exist?

  • Exhaust or rear silencer 451

    Hello together, I’m new here and unfortunately with my Smarti the problem that it sounds like a puffed-up Trabbi. In other words, the exhaust / tail muffler has a high leak to the lamda probe (Riss). It has been known already, but only held for a whole week. Since the exhaust with Smart crammed about 750,- € costs, the question arises to me how and if you get to it cheaper. Under the part no. A4514901381 in combination with manufacturer’s key etc. is given. There are also significantly cheaper versions on the net, but they all look strangely different. Does anyone have a tip or experience on this?

  • Buying advice Smart for daily 100km

    Hello, play with the thought of buying a smart. Aspiration is: Automatic or partial automatic air conditioning cheap in consumption/tax/insurance would need this weekday for 100 km per day. Grade in the small car sector automatic is very rare to find. That’s why I came to a smart. At the moment I drive a BMW F11 (yes, the switch to a smart is then quite big…) but this would get the woman since this has daily not such a long distance. I don’t want to scrub on the F11 every day these miles on it. Or does someone have another alternative where I could take a look. If Smart I would like the convertible. Which miles would still be reasonable with this daily load?

  • Complete system, need help.

    Moin Jungs, have decided now to throw out my factory boxes and invest a little bit. I just want to use the existing recesses that would be there: – 10cm Front + HT – 13cm Rear + HT Both systems should not cost more than 150€ each and I would like to let them play only via the radio (Alpine 9812RR 4x60W max.). To get some pressure in the stomach, I want to expand my trunk, whether I don’t know now, but should seamlessly fit into the clan Is this possible at all, if yes, it is worth to install 2 subs? If not, I would need a final stage for front and rear, up to 200€. A sub should not cost more than 150€ and the appropriate final stage no more than 250€. My musical taste is mainly based on heavy metal, so I would like to hear a clean double bass if this is possible with a sub. Furthermore, the size of the sub(s) would be decisive. Prices sin d now roughly calculated, if there is money left, that would be very great hope, someone understands what I want and can help me further. Brands I prefer no, since I have no idea… Hold on, I don’t want to get called the name Magnat

  • Renewed winter with Conti profile

    On the weekend I had to request that there are retreaded winter tyres with Continental profiles (cts780,ts790 and 810) and others to buy at ́Real. If someone knows who is behind it (Continental itself or otherwise a direct one of the Scheffler group), someone has experience with them. Is this from completely German production? for all information grateful Greetings from Münsterland, Bueddel

  • Wheel size to what extent flexible?

    Hello!! I have a stupid question. On my Mazda there are now wheels with this size: 195/60R15 Can I replace them with wheels of size 205/50R15? Are there any benchmarks in this respect or maybe tables? Thank you for your help!

  • He’s here…

    Hello together, since Thursday I am also proud owner of an FN2 – Championship White. I can only say: ECHT GENIAL !!! – Super car. Now nice in peace and then just have a lot of fun. Today there was still the “Type R” lettering for the rear sides and the front grill. Looks really strong. I also spoke once again with the friendly. Even if the manual on the topic of drive-in and oil change says that the first scheduled change is sufficient, I will go to the W My car dealer also does this change at the pure material price, because it is not explicitly recommended by Honda (to ensure e.g. guarantees). Also the reactions from the outside to the car are really great. First you do not see many FN2 on the roads and second in white already not at all. Ciao

  • Tires damaged – replacement necessary?

    Hello together, my father with his MB C-Class stayed stuck while trying to avoid a truck on a curb. Both rims were damaged at the passenger side. After closer examination he noticed today that the tire on the VA was damaged a bit more. The tire was cut down, so that a kind of ‘bag’ was created. My question is now whether one can drive these tires even further. The vehicle is a leasing car. The tyre is a Continental Sport Contact 3 225/40 ZR18 92Y. Pictures in the appendix. Thank you very much in the foreground greetings. We are looking forward to seeing you again at the end of the rental period.
