    Had 2 Kia so far, a Clarus with a wildschaen had ( Rotte Wildscheine 6Dead Pigs) the car was front-right heavily destroyed Complete radiator unit stuck to the engine, the exhaust manifold torn, fender left, right to the wheel run pressed So massive, economic total damage. Now Pro Ceed, crash on BAB with 80 KM/H on Volvo 2 hits hits on 2nd third driver side. Front total bonnet pushed right fender to start wheel run, cooler abr Is this norma??? where are the Aüslöser?? lt dealer since battery was immediately separated from the Miinuspol he could not trigger more unie components where the contact was installed his not hit. I was of the opinion that in an accident the airbags would be triggered by mass carrying systemWho has similar experiences, or who informs me about my D enkfehler on greeting Hyosung Bear

  • Guarantee lost at Kia ceed EU Reimport

    Hello, yesterday I was at the third inspection at the dealer of Kia in Goslar with my reimport of a ceed. Maintenance interval 12 months or 20,000 kilometers. Short data: 1. First registration on my name on 25.02.2011 at 15 kilometers. 2. First inspection on 05.01.2012 at 14,707 kilometers. 3. Second inspection on 10.01.2013 at 30,428 kilometers. 4. Third inspection on 09.01.2014 at 44,971 kilometers. Had from the first inspection with the workshop a “spar depot” against Bezah This means for three inspections no wage costs are due and should therefore save about 55% of the costs. In the warranty booklet (all in foreign writing) there is something from 29.09.2010. What this means, I did not worry about it and did not look at it before. Yesterday I asked in the workshop. It turned out yesterday in the workshop that I have no guarantee at all because I would have to inspect every 12 months after 29.09.2010. I had already lost my guarantee before the first inspection. That was my first EU vehicle and that’s why I had my inspections done as usual from the first inspection. I made a “serious” error unknowingly, but would the workshop not have had to give me any indication during the first inspection? This should be known to the workshop especially since the warranty booklet is in foreign writing and it is a large workshop. You still have to give me my guarantee at the first inspection. I could have saved the three inspections or had oil, spark plugs and so on “cheaper” checked at another workshop. Especially since I have now driven only 45,000 kilometers after 3 years. According to the warranty booklet up to the first inspection 12 months and 97 days have passed. According to information here on the Internet it can be about 2 months or 2,000 kilometers of exceedance. So with me 36 days too much. I called today at KIA and also with “supervised” Spro result = guarantee is no longer available. What could I do to get a guarantee again? Take the workshop into the boat with you, which are not completely blameless or? Thanks for advice.

  • Have track and fall adjusted – surprise!

    After I was allowed to find out that the left front tyre had expired considerably in the course of the change from summer to winter tyres (steel threads came to light and the tread was already partially detached), I decided to have the fall and the track adjusted. That’s how it happened. Feedback from the workshop, which also got to view the worn tire: There were considerable adjustments necessary. So far so good! Today, four days after the survey, I look for: e my wife with the car a workshop, because of noises from the front tire. The workshop found that the wheel was only so attached to the five wheel nuts. All wheel nuts were loose! After consultation in a large car dealership in Berlin, how fall and track is measured, I was told that the wheels were first dismantled to exclude mechanical damage (visibility test). Afterwards the tyres are mounted and measured. For setting is a demonstration With this knowledge I called the tyre company. Without reproach and without reproach, just stop the information. What can I say! The woman at the assumption knew immediately that the tyres were not dismantled and that I was to blame! A short conversation! Result: I control the tyres myself when I get the car out of the workshop! The customer is always to blame! The customer is always the fool!

  • Fulda SportControl or Hankook EVO12 in 235 40 18 ?

    Hi, please help me further: Fulda Sport Control or HANKOOK EVO12 in 235 40 18 for a Mondeo MK4 combo? What to buy? Advantage HANKOOK: Label “C” for consumption, “B” for adhesion. The FULDA only “E” for consumption, same note for adhesion. Advantage FULDA: No V profile and therefore possibly less sawtooth prone to the combo back (?). Prices are currently approximately the same. Tests as far as I could see also do not give the huge difference. e

  • How long can I ride with a spare bike and how fast?

    Hello, I just noticed that my car in the garage has a plate I will probably have to replace the tire tomorrow, so that I can continue on Monday, then drive to Euromaster, so that I can order a new tire there. Now I ask myself, however, how long and how fast can I drive with the spare tire at all? My spare tire would be practically my summer tire, which would be on aluminium – the remaining 3 tires would therefore be So are 3 winter tyres + 1 summer tyres allowed at short notice until my new tyre is there? And how fast can I drive on the highway? Bzw. should I rather avoid the highway or is it no problem? Thank you very much in advance. Greetings,

  • Doorboards closed or open…

    Well, as it is, I still haven’t managed to build decent doorboards. The ones I’ve got in there sound quite ok, but they don’t look like shit. I’m not the pro in the trade, so there’s probably a lot of work in there and nothing comes out when I build new ones… That’s why I wanted to buy doorboards… So much for the audition… At Ebay there are now only open doorboards, so the TMTs are playing on the door… I haven’t kept much of that so far, because then you’re going to be The doors are forced to be closed. Besides, you don’t have a defined and really closed housing. But if they are covered everywhere, they must be apparently more popular than closed doorboards. Therefore, my questions to you: Why are the open boards so popular? Would you rather advise me to be open or closed? (My present ones are closed, probably have 2.5l per page and sound like I said quite ok…) I’m curious about your statements… Greetings, E.T.chen

  • Power cables – alternative hardware store?

    night, I was yesterday biting through the shops and fell out backwards at the cable prices. 8€ for a meter 35mm2 I find quite violent.Hads then let it be and looked at ebay. then a buddy told me that one could theoretically also take stink normal power cable out of the construction market. certainly in similar strength (will have 35ers) and well isolated. might be a lot cheaper. in my eyes is current and if the cable I’m surprised that I haven’t heard anything about any of you doing this… what do you think about it?

  • new boxes without final stage, is that possible?

    I have absolutely no idea about car hi-fi audio! I get a car with 2 tweeters in the middle of May and 4 normal speakers (40 watts I think) Would buy a good sound system in the future. It should have good power but also have a very good sound reproduction. I also don’t want to have a bass box (bass drum etc.) as I don’t want to give up any space for it. Is there a speaker that plays both sound and proper bass? What can you recommend? Was on Pioneer.de and found good things? Are these recommended?
