  • EURO NCAP Crash test with 64 km/h still up-to-date?

    If a Mercedes C-Class from 1997 had passed the 56 km/h test well, he did not look so good at the 64 km/h EURO-NCAP test any more, only 2 stars, very heavy leg injury would have been the result at that time. Then another example of today. The BRILLIANCE BS 6 only 1 star, is classified as very uncertain by the ADAC, but one had previously received an approval at 56 km/h, where it was still reasonably stable, only about 10 km/h m It has the status of 1995 of an average car from then on.So the car from then on would have to be considered as all very uncertain. Back to today, the 5 stars are no longer a great requirement, almost every car manufacturer has to date at least ,1 model with 5 stars in its model range. Then was still an extreme test of GOLF V, at Kopfball.de with 100 km/h EURO-NCAP. The question, from the team, there is a survival at a 5 star Today’s car, at this high speed? The result was to be expected naturally, although the body was still reasonably recognizable as such, extreme loads for the occupants, no more footroom, etc. There is no chant for the driver, in this extreme test. It does not have to be exactly 100 km/h. I think 75 km/h/ in the EURO NCAP TEST with 6 stars as a very safe vehicle, would be today quite feasible and contemporary! Then some car manufacturers, with their 5 pcs How, by the way, would a brand new car like the C-Class perform on the market?

  • Cylinder head gasket

    Help!!! Is it really very expensive to change the cylinder head gasket? My oil is enormous from the area and the males from the workshop thought it must be new! What does that cost??? Must really consider whether I buy it or if I get it from the other. Because, if so much has to be repaired, the 1000 €uro Kuafpreis are also a bad consolation. Info: Mercedes Benz w201 (190e) 2.0 l 118 PS Bj. 87 Well and I have the following problems: Shock absorber front right oils up by d he screw, the car hangs very exceptionally deep at the back. With cylinder head gasket it oils violently. Jumps badly and hobbles at low speeds. Tray joints at the front right have already been changed! What do you mean? Keep the thing or sell it again? I really have no idea if the whole repertures are still worth it. Heavy decision! But where should I find another 190 in white so quickly, with 2.0 l in my vicinity????? Is not so easy! And especially so good nstig! Or was that an expensive car????? PLEASE HELFT ME MIR MAL!!!!!

    Hello, I can’t reset the total service with the Vito W447 via the key combination. Can you do this only with the star diagnosis? I have tried various diagnostic devices among others CARLY, Autoaid and via the key combination itself. I am very grateful for your help. Thank you!

  • Tele Aid Disturbed! Mercedes me contact Call and the breakdown service Lamps glow red!

    Hello, I have a rather urgent problem (unfortunately thought so) because the time before repeated driving runs out at the TÜV on 04.04. TÜV therefore rejected at the KÜß München?!? Since the change / update of the Mercedes me app on the mobile phone, about 1 year ago, lights light up at my Benz E 222d, A238, BJ. 6/17, W213, the lights on the button for Mercedes me contact call and breakdown service at the operating unit at the internal mirror, red instead of white. Before the app change I have the connection with d I had a car with an app on my mobile phone, then no more and the lights switched to red. According to the manual, this has to do with the connection to the Mercedes me app. That’s why I visited the MB dealers a week ago. The connection to the Mercedes me app, but unfortunately the lights are still red. The technician was at a loss. At the end I was recommended to replace the control unit, which I do not agree with. I hope to get help on this way! Out!

  • Number fluctuations OM 646

    Hello people, now that I have been searching through posts here again and again, I have registered myself. Now to a problem that I have on my OM646. In idle the idle is usually easy, this can also be easily heard. If I constantly drive a speed and the engine does not run on load, this problem can still be observed. At my disposal I have an ANCEL AD310 OBD2. AGR (Pierburg) is new. If someone has an idea how to find out ka nn, where the “problem” comes from? There are no bugs in the memory, as well as I have already attached an injector cleaner. However, this has not shown any changes. – This should not be an invitation to discuss additives Please give me any advice! Thank you already in advance

  • Exhaust flap squeaking

    Hello, I’ve been squeaking from the exhaust valve for some time now. Young stars guarantee does not take over, since it just squeaks and is not broken, it should be broken they may take over it, but must first be checked …. The flap only exists with the entire exhaust system – cost point 943€ -.- My question is now, should I wait until the flap gets stuck at some point and then to MB, with the hope that it is a guarantee case, or can cause a bigger damage to the ride ug arise when the flap is stuck. Unfortunately, don’t know me technically how this affects the car.. or just take the money in your hand and now take care of it yourself? I am grateful for every helpful answer. Lg stefan

  • s204 Parking light does not work in the rear

    Hello, wanted to turn on the parking light on the left in a confusing place. 1. Problem: I had to use the cell phone lamp to find the correct switch position. Is there no lighting in the switch or is it broken and you can change the bulb? 2. The front of the lamp turned on normally, at the back the lamp only glimmered, which initially also on the right side, after several switching attempts went left nothing at all. With standing light all 4 went normal. Battery i It can’t be because of that. Does anyone have an idea LG Benno
