  • Consumption Scania R420 Euro4

    Hello, we have 1o Scania R420 Euro4 running in local transport (80% highway / 20% highway). These are all 4-6 liters/100 km above the predecessor vehicles (99 Actros 2540, 2001 TGA 410). Scania knows no solution, driver training has brought only a small effect. Now my question is whether there are others who have the same experience with this engine. We also have 5 SZM running 420 hp in Euro5 in long-distance traffic, this has top consumption. Would be grateful for any help. Greetings

  • Truck registration for minibuses

    Moin! I’m thinking of adding a T4( 97 Multivan 2,5 Tdi) and allowing it as a truck. I was told that you have to remove the benches and the seat belts. A separation between the driver cab and the cargo compartment is also necessary! someone knows if the informations are correct or if I forgot something and someone has already done something like that and has been allowed to gain experience!

  • Fuel pump broken ??

    Hello, with my Peugeot J5 (year 1993, 1,9L diesel) I always have to be careful that I do not drive the tank empty, because otherwise the whole dirt always goes into the fuel tank and this then has to be changed. But no further trouble, that even I can manage. After that the car runs again with full power (130 kmh peak ). Yesterday it was again so….although I could not remember that the tank was empty. But there were actually some crumbs in the filter. So again it was so…. changed…. but then… at approx. 100 km/h it is closed. The car doesn’t pull anymore. As if I hadn’t changed the filter at all. Twice it went out at a slow turn or stop at the intersection. Jump then again immediately and continue wonderfully until 100 km/h in the 5th gear. Then the same … it doesn’t go on..I really notice how he wants..but it doesn’t come to anything. The other gears can be fully excited. My question now : Can it be that some dirt on the filter By or through the filter is through and now the injection nozzles are clogged. Or the worse possibility: Can the fuel pump die… be dead ?? But as I said, until 100 it drives wonderful. And in the past the problem “only” was eliminated with a new filter. How does it make itself noticeable, when the fuel pump is broken, breaks ?? Does this go over such a long period ?? Have the agen since January 07. What I do not have to say. The previous owner is the car (in summer) 06) driven with Pöl or as it is called. But it’s also been a while. Would be grateful about some opinions and tips. THANK YOU

  • Euro 5 with vegetable oil ?

    Hello, drive an Actros in the 2 tank system with vegetable oil, which also works wonderfully. Now the truck is to be exchanged for a new Euro5. Since 1.10.07 all truck manufacturers have to install a nitrogen oxide sensor at Euro5, which ensures that the exhaust gas values are adhered to, I wonder if this still works with vegetable oil – as it is known with plant. other values arise. Who knows what about it or can help me ?

  • Man oh man what brainless truckers were today…

    Holiday time is stress time and stowage time that we all know but with some truckers probably the fuses burned out today (if available) Or are there currently many aids on the way? This morning A1 truck (hertz truck with motor traffic nail trailer ) Overtakes me and pulls in on the half so that I had to slow down on the stand strip!!!! Such a beginner A2 Do> direction Hannover I was on the way with 85km/h like all other drivers at Bönen truck overtaking ban which some probably did not bother any further and they nevertheless 5 min on the left track 5 trucks overtook around then exactly at the departure Rheda Wiedenbrück 38sec were rather (headshake) Such a moron construction site Before Hamm a pole had to pass by me and could only overtake me in the driveway of the construction site (brain cracking idiot ) back drive A33 free track behind me pulls out a Dutchman to not overtake there came from behind a BMW ( already faster) which only by an emergency braking has avoided an accident (OLLER KÄSKOP) On the way home with the car I was standing behind 2 trucks at the traffic light, at Green find the 2nd truck at the first despite oncoming traffic on the left-bending lane to overtake for the opponent !!! would have crashed if the 1st truck had not stopped!!!! I WANT NOT IT WHEN WE ARE RIGHTLY APPROVED BY MANY CAR VEHICLES IT IS TO MANY TROTTE UNDERWARDS LOVE COLLECTIONS IT MAL RUHIGER ASSESSED BY NIEM THERE’S A PRESSURE TO BE AT HOME 5 MIN EHER

  • Is our job still future-proof

    Hello colleagues, do you think that we German drivers will still be sitting on German trucks in 10 years’ time. The balance is already here. The best example are the motorways. Every 4th truck has foreign registration plates on deustchen roads. Since the Eastern Bloc joined the EU, more and more companies are moving their locations abroad, where you can employ drivers more cheaply. Unfortunately, these trucks carry a very small proportion of the renovation of German motorways and highways. n. With tolls and fees, the revenues do not cover the entire renovation costs of the roads. If one considers that the income by tolls is about 2-3 billion euros. Now the Bulgarians and the Romanians are also in the EU, and it gets worse every day. Maybe also Turkey and thus we have the salad. Potential accident causers and asphalt killers to dumping wages. Do you think that German forwarders can prevail?

  • Water loss Actros

    Hello dear friends! Have a question! Since recently my truck loses cooling water. Unfortunately I have not been able to detect any leak until now. Except in the area of the rear cylinder heads a light puddle forms in between. Was with it already at Daimler. They cleaned it and let the engine run. There was no leak. What can this be about. Where can anything lick there. The engine is a used and partially overhauled ATM (cylinder head seals, piston rings, etc. new)? I changed a week ago, Alle O. K.. I’m baffled

  • Flashed!

    On the A7 behind Kassel is a slope with 8%, for trucks is allowed there 60, for cars I believe 100.. when I drove there last night, everything free, had had a blank 815, 80-85 on the speedometer and was flashed, at the end of the slope.. I am still in the probation time..What is this, for trucks in such a case different speed guidelines apply? Or simply 20 km/h too fast outside closed village??? Do I have points to fear??? Thank you for your answers
