  • Mazda6 doesn’t answer why?

    Hello, I hope this is the right page for my problem. I hope you can help me After work I wanted to drive home, but my car didn’t sprang up, I thought the battery and bridged it but nothing pasted. then pushed it on and went against nothing. Last way ADAC, the good people came about after 1 std and was checked by the ADAC staff where they found that the immobilizer flashed although ignition was on, we only stayed my Mazda at The next day, the butchered message at my Mazda workshop, the engine locker is defective and the immobilizer is blocking everything. The nice Mazda masters thought it would cost about 2900 euros. But since I just don’t have the 2900 euros and the car has about 10 years and 280 000 km I didn’t think it would pay so much money to put in there. there the nice masters meant that I should pay 500 euros, because they checked it and the Ellekt ricker has a STD wage of about 98 euro. After agreement of 300 I was able to tow my car back home. Then I expanded the engine control unit and shikt to the technology center, Hello, now I have even more problems. the motor control grave I got back today from Technicker Zentrum Filderstadt. I paid almost 520 euro to the technician center, the engine control unit installed in the yard now runs my car back, NIX since still the same error, everything le uchtet and the immobilizer still flashes (then my motor control unit was not defective at all or? ) Please give me a advice where the errors lie almost 900 euro paid to Mazda and technician center and it still does not run WHERE comes the error that the immobilizer always flashes even though the key is stuck. Ps: I forgot there was still a sheet of the technology center, where they describe to me what else to do. cabularization ring antenna testing, if necessary ring antenna new ern. (what is a ring antenna) Renew pressure control valve on high pressure pump (is that the Disel pump? )

  • Mazda goes off braking

    Hallihallo. I went out three times this morning on my way to work while braking and at the same time uncoupled the car. He can then start immediately again, but in the turn-off process this is not so funny, if the car suddenly can be steered so badly :/ I have to say that I have to step the accelerator pedal before starting, because it otherwise sticks. Yes, I know, I should have taken care of it (is the throttle flap, or?) but I’ve tried it myself. The car has run 190,000 km, has been running smoothly and smoothly on LPG since 8,000 km, runs about 30,000 km a year, mainly long distance and the ABS sensor at the front left is broken. But that has nothing to do with it, doesn’t it? Does anyone have an idea? VlG Miss K.

  • There’s something wrong…

    Hello 🙂 Maybe you can help me- everyone thinks I’m stupid. My car has a problem. Or maybe I have one… Well, I imagine that between 85 and 95 km/h, the most noticeable thing is something funny in 5th gear on very smooth asphalt. It feels like the car has a brake plate at the front right. But it didn’t. The tyres at the front are new and because I’ve been so nervous several times. I can’t do that well. It feels like the one front tire is driving over the smallest floor waves, the other one doesn’t. It doesn’t clack, you don’t feel in the steering wheel. Somehow the “vibrations” are different. Under 85 km/h it’s not there, over 95 km/h either. Whether it occurs at higher speeds I don’t know, because it’s too discreet to be noticed when driving faster. It kind of roars a little. The stupid thing is that nobody believes me. n tested to independently confirm that there is nothing there. But I just notice something. Whether on the driver’s or passenger’s seat. Can this be the wheel bearing? Or does it make itself so noticeable when fall or track are set? Can it be because the brake discs are soon at the end at the front? Or because an ABS sensor may be over? (TCS and ABS lights are permanently lit). What can this be? Does anyone have an idea? I would be grateful for tips. VlG Miss K.

  • Purchase advice Mazda 6

    Heyho, since I want to switch from the Golf IV to a bigger car, I looked at some Mazda 6 type GG1 on the Internet. Preferably as a combo. Now I have a few questions about the Mazda 6. Does this one have a computer on board (consumption, kilometers, time, door a,b,c,d still open) as I know it from the Gulf? Because I would hate to make a bigger step backwards in terms of technology. The second would be the radio. I like optically, but has no USB. is only unfortunately not in the form as I know it. Is there certain mounting frames to be able to transport even normal radios into the shaft? Finally, what do I have to pay attention to when buying? I heard the rust precaution at the Mazda should not be so good. Are there places where the rust especially likes to collect? Thank you in advance Greetings Watzke

  • Motor noise Mini Cooper S Built 2007

    Since February 2007 I am a proud owner of a new Mini Cooper S. key number to2: 0005 to3:AFC . After about a month and approx. 1000 km of mileage the problems started already. The engine starts in the cold state very jerky (speed is slowing down, feels like a turbo hole) and ignites unburnt mixture in the exhaust (fox hunting). The engine has running sounds (a strong bang) that sound as if the cylinder head would not be lubricated. When I drove up to BMW with the car, of course, the errors did not occur any more. They only renewed the generator (light mask) and an exhaust hotplate. Nothing has been announced in this direction from Munich. They only said that the car should be driven so further. The vehicle is often in a (ringed) slant during the day, but I don’t know if that has anything to do with it. In my opinion, this will happen before The error usually occurs after one day of service in the said angle. However, there are no fault lamps in the cockpit and the error readout (Gutmann-Diagnose MegaMacs55) does not spit out any error either. At BMW, however, it is very difficult to find a competent employee who also understands a bit of the matter and can tell me, for example, whether the oil pressure switch is located at the cylinder head or at the motor blo Since I don’t want to cause any capital engine damage to my little flicker, I need your help. If you have similar problems with your MINI rocket, then please be so kind and write down your experiences. I would like to thank you in advance for your efforts.

  • New color midnight black metallic

    Hello, I ordered my Mini in astro black metallic about 2 weeks ago. Yesterday the dealer informed me that it is delivered in the color midnight black metallic (from 12/08) because astro black is no longer painted. Does someone look like the Frabe or is it just a new name? Didn’t find anything at google and the new Frabe is not in the configurator either.

  • Test of new Mini Cooper Works

    Today I had the pleasure of being able to test the new Cooper Works extensively. Conclusion : Ordered immediately Unfortunately the Works will only be delivered from Okober/Novermber. My experience in detail : The dealer has now provided me with a black Cooper Works with just 150 kilometers on the speedometer. He had mounted the series suspension and was therefore very harmonious to drive. Even the Runflats seem to be getting a little better in this respect. the dealer immediately agreed to exchange the Runflats for Pirelli zero Nero at the end of the race ( free of charge ). Of course, the engine had not really entered at 150 kilometers, so I first carefully brought it to operating temperature. Then it went directly to Highway A 81. Of course he had his stated maximum speed (to Heinz ) on the level, as by the way, with all cars usual, otherwise the manufacturer would not write it in the papers, loosely In case of slight gradient, without tailwind (I kept my finger out of it ), I brought it to 253 km/h according to the digital speedometer (not tachometer ) before I had to drive from the gas. The tachometer was just in front of the first stroke of the red area. However, there was not much feeling, 255 km/h would have been in it, with stronger descent or tailwind even 260 km/h should be possible, according to Tacho. The engine is really a dream, very good passage and great sound. Not intrusive but sporty under full speed. Pleasant even as in the S, as no annoying frequencies occur. Without sports button very harmonious gas acceptance, with sports button very direct, but without jerking. The steering used crispy direct, whereby with the sports button no big difference was felt any more. Traction absolutely (in the dry ) no problem. Overall a very harmoniously tuned engine. Here you notice that the professionals of BM The consumption was not higher than that of the Cooper S. The brakes were used to delay well, with no difference to the S fixed. Unfortunately, the running flat tires do not bring the brake reading to the road, which was felt by the strongly regulating ABS even with normal braking maneuvers. However, the delay is still so strong that the rear axle becomes very light and thus the vehicle becomes nervous. Therefore, as with my D, the brakes are running very fast. Since then, the D has been running like on rails even with heavy braking maneuvers. The Works is a really great car with search potential, which can be moved damn fast, but is surprisingly comfortable and therefore absolutely suitable for everyday and long-distance use. The price was amazing. Since many options, such as aluminium rims, sports seats etc. are already series, the surcharge for my equipment variant was only about 3,000,– Euro compared to the S . Markus
