  • Colt CA1A just went out, doesn’t start anymore!?

    Hello first of all. I’ve already worked through some topics here but I’m not quite conclusive about what could have happened with our Colt.. Maybe someone can help there, would be great. It’s a Colt CA1A, built in 95, this one has displayed the “Check Engine” light more often lately and jerked something, but that went out with a little jerking then again at some point. In the last days the engine now also ran restlessly after starting, and then also reinforced In the first and second gear, from the third gear he ran quieter. And now the car just went out with a strong jerker during the ride. The accelerator did not react any more, we let him roll out, turned off the engine and then tried to start again. All the control lights glowed while turning the turnkey, but the engine didn’t jump any more. So the ADAC called, he looked at the distributor cap and the distributor finger, pulled off the ignition cables and d, while again a start attempt was made, the cable was held to the battery, whether a spark came. This also came, however, as he said not regularly enough or too weak. Now the ADAC man taps on the distributor cap or the finger, since the spark plugs are only a quarter of a year old, but is also not sure. We do not really know what it can be and would of course like to try something, what you can do yourself. I read so far in various th or can it be anything else? What can you do now? Thank you for your help!

  • Water in the trunk of the Colt CZC!

    Hello, I have my Colt CZC Bj. 08/2006 since August 09 and am very happy, however, I was able to find out recently that my trunk cover was very wet. I looked under and see a wheel pit filled with about 1 cm of water and everywhere approaches of mold :’-( Unfortunately my guarantee does not take over this. So I put myself with a flashlight in the trunk and my car was splashed from all sides, with strong pressure, with tens of liters of water, but I can The only thing I noticed was the flow of water on the rear window. It runs into the trunk, where it runs through a simple construction into a small trap and passes through a hose na outside. But when a lot of water hits the rear window with a little pressure, it splashes over the fan. can it be that I have a swimming pool in my trunk? Please help! Greetings Lidia

  • Galant EA0

    Hi guys, last week I got a Galant EA0 with the 2.5L engine and 163hp added in the Sport Edition. Was ne super decision Would have had a general question about sharing the car. Would like to buy me for example white turn signals. There are some at Ebay, but none of these little page turners found. Or Angel Eyes would be a possibility if there were one for the Galant… Would be great if there was an online shop, where you don’t have to hope that there would be what is the case with Ebay… Thank you for your answers in advance!

  • Space Wagon first experiences/macking, alarm or warning?

    Hello! After the first few kilometers with my fancy packwaggong there are a few things that make me very nervous: Today for the first time longer time on the road in Stop&Go, the stand gas speed is estimated at N about 600 and on D just so 550, must that be so? Do I also know of the Mazda Premcy automatic that he bubbling in the stand gas shortly before suffocating… In addition (I was scared short and stopped immediately): at this minimum speed the red oil control light flickered from time to time too weak . Can I explain this only in such a way that at the lowest speed not enough oil pressure is built up (oil level is 3/4 height between min and max), with some gas tips the lamp runs out immediately. In addition, sporadic in the stand a “hydroklappern” comes and disappears after a while increased speed again.(Have already been searched and read by vents by alternating a few minutes to 3000 rpm and stand gas) Should the oil level at stop maximum or rather something under it like now? In addition, the speed range in traffic jams comes from time to time to a kind of “roar squeaking/smiling noise”, can this be one of the belts, roller bearings or a WaPu bearing damage? Engine has 120,000 km down, is model ’99 GDI MOTION questions about questions, I know, I don’t expect a great remote diagnosis now, just wants to know if now an “ALARM” says because of one of the symptoms or if the usual age stacks are to be pointed out at the next inspection (would then be like this in About 7000 km due).

  • Which SpaceStar Diesel to buy?

    Hello guys, I’ve been looking for a “new” used car for quite a while now. I’m currently driving a Volvo S40 2.0l BJ.96 With now 210,000 km on the clock, it’s time for a new car in the medium term. After I happened to see a SpaceStar today, I thought to myself. Hey, that’s what it would be like. I’m alone, but I like to have a spacious car. I don’t want a “big van” and I don’t need to. After everything I’ve read so far, the Space Star seems to be a good compro. My modest budget is between 5,000 and 8,000 euros. If you look inside at mobile.de, you can definitely find something. With the diesel models there is as far as I have now seen 102 or 116 hp. Which of the two engines is the more robust – or there are significant differences? How are you different in the topic of “consumption”? I would also like to know how it is with the vehicles with the topic “End speed” looks? Is there any other thing you should pay attention to when buying? When is the timing belt change due, for example? Would I be happy if you could share some experiences. Thank you and many greetings Skodi4711

  • My Space Wagon Spins

    Hello dear Mitsubishi fans ! I would need some help….My Space Wagon , Built 2002 , 2.4 GDI spins completely . In May 2009 I had problems with the accelerator sensor , newly bought and built in , since which no problems until now . Last week I drove still in the morning by car , in the evening sat me in , wanted to drive away and the car did not jump any more . From loud temptations of course the Batteri also went out . On the next day I got a mechanic and the Geraet has read out the error, and turned out, error code 92….so… air mass meters. I bought a used but with warranty and installed today, the car makes as if it was starting but yet does not. And quite interresant, either error code 92 returns, or 92 with 78 (gas pedal sensor), or only 78, after deleting I try to start but after few turns, exactly then when starting should remain off. Couple of revolutions because the battery is quite weak, was not properly charged. Does someone have an idea what that could be ?….and why can two things at once just get broken from standing around? So, as I said, the battery was not very strong today, after three-four temptations it went out. Could ev. be due to the battery, of course if the voltage is way too small then the control spins? And another question…I left with the mechanic the third key…could be d ass the service key is not suitable to start the car? I exchanged the accelerator sensor last year, installed brand new and since that no longer had any problems. I just can’t understand it. Mitsu workshop I have in the vicinity in Eisenstadt ( Austria) , Denzel , but they are very weak… the last time have looked around four days and done nothing, as even the technician told me to the accelerator sensor that is the cruiser and was getting pretty sc hwer persuade….na clear that I took the car away immediately. Please write me what I can do. Any idea could help me. Thank you ! With kind greetings , László

Drive shaft, dome bearing, stabi, cross handlebar, shrink hose (????). Has jmd. of you ever had a “sighty” problem. I am grateful for every hint. .

  • Lancer Bj 05, 2.0l jerks 4g63

    Hello dear Inernergemeinde My Lancer 2.0 Bj 05 has a problem he ruckelt . The error message he issues about the diagnosis is fault ignition. But can not be, since the complete ignition harness has already been changed. Since a gas conversion was made, the error in the fuel side is unpredictable. I suspect the error in the air side of the mixture formation. My contract workshop has not yet found the error, they have no free date for me, in the foreseeable future. Therefore I cleaned the throttle valve once and the jerking, which was particularly strong in partial load operation, became better. The plug to the throttle valve potentiometer was my favorite of the error source, and actually it became quiet for about 500 km after I had worked this plug with contact spray. The jerking occurred again, the plug was cleaned again, without success. The car jerked up to a full braking, after that it runs up to before. h an idea what it could be? with kind regards useful ät imail point de
