  • Maximum speed limit

    Hi, in the mini forum mini2.info there is a thread that deals with the speed limit of a mini. Here many have already noticed that the cars with the newer software ́s are obviously slowed down at the specified top speed. Did you notice it already??? So at the software level of November I have a top speed according to Tacho of 248 Km/h Greeting Basti93

  • MX5 sound insulation

    Servus, I want to keep my Miata a little bit better so that the driving noises don’t get through. I’ve been a little smart and I’ve set up the following battle plan: Dress the entire floor with bitumen mats. The doors with alubutyl are insulating, a little insulating tiles towards the interior, after the steam barrier. The trunk is also paved with bitumen mats, just like the wheel boxes. Do you think that’s meaningful, or would you do it differently? r should also a better music system pure, is this also a good basis for it? Many greetings, and thanks already in advance.

  • Temperature display in the instrument cluster is already at 12 o’clock even at the cold start

    Good evening, as a fun car two weeks ago, I enjoyed an Mx5 Nb with 147 ps. The car has here and there its rust approaches, but they are not very bad. I didn’t really drive the vehicle until then, but I noticed that the oil temperature indicator in the instrument cluster is always 12 o’clock (~13 o’clock). I drove the car several times only into the hall and once warmed up because of the oil change. I already have spark plugs, air filters, M otor oil and differential oil changed. Next weekend, timing belts, belt, water pump, coiled suspension and the defective oil temperature indicator will follow. Does anyone know the problem and know advice? Thank you

  • MX-5 NB as a daily and winter vehicle?

    Moin, I’m short: I’m currently playing with the idea of getting myself a MX-5 NB as a daily and winter car. What’s your opinion about this, especially about rust? Some of my friends drive the NA and the NB as a summer car, some have registered it all year round, but rather as a fun car in rainy weather. As a passenger, I always loved the driving feeling and visually I also find the things quite great. My question is whether it is still worth an NB In the north I rarely have snow, but salt and cold are still a bit worried about it. Will the longitudinal beams rust away immediately or can you seal them reasonably? I don’t want to take away the individual pieces with good longitudinal beams, just so that they start to crunch after a winter What do you think about it? What would you recommend?

  • Here the connoisseurs are in demand!

    Hello, unfortunately, unfortunately, unfortunately my beloved Toyota Avensis ́99 2.0 Beziner 240tkm now gives the trip to Africa. Too bad, but it’s not worth it anymore. We never had repairs and now everything seems to be broken. Now a new car of this size has to come, only which one? And now the connoisseurs are in demand!! My demands are longevity, reliability, reasonable viewing price, no susceptibility for annoying and expensive repairs, rust-free ( No garage) It must be a diesel and should have about 100kw. It is still important to know that I have an annual driving performance of 50,000km and own a caravan. To the previous selection are the 1-3 year old: Avensis Mazda6 Skoda Oktavia VW Passat and I am completely overwhelmed, because every hander says yes that his car is the best. what do you think, with which model do I have the best chances to drive for a long time without having trouble? Or do you have another good tip? Taus end Thanks to the helping connoisseurs hida

  • Buy Mazda 626 BJ99?

    Hello, I’m new here and I have a question right away…. after my old Mazda 323 has blessed the time, I’m looking for a new used station wagon… now I’ve been looking for a longer Mazda 626 BJ99 110PS diesel at a well-known trusted Mazda dealer. The car is optical as well as technically well in order, except 2 rust spots on the windscreen (which according to the dealer were created by sloppy work during a disc exchange) and at the rear wheel. The car has about 200 000km at the counter, service is still made fresh by the dealer and I still get 1 year used car warranty. Cost should the car 4,500€ So…and now the real question 🙂 : How does it look with rust in the car in general? Because I haven’t seen a Mazda 626 yet who had no rust on the rear wheels…. must ic h expect the car to start rusting under my butt after a year like the other 626 or my old 323? Or can I expect that if the rust doesn’t get out until now it’s even longer quiet? PS: I don’t have any pictures. LG Martin
