Does anyone know where I can get automatic freewheel hubs for my 85er Chevy k30? I drive road/road in a ratio of 70/30 and am tired of having to get off every time to unlock the hubs. doesn’t necessarily have to be from WARN or something, but the prices should be affordable. already many thanks in advance.

A question in the round: Who has experienced similar things already? About 13,000 km after delivery of my Range Rover Sport TDV8 began to become noticeable in the front axle polter noises. These arise when running over channel covers, floor unevenness etc. The workshop commissioned with the warranty indicated that this is normal with the TDV8, resp. with all vehicles with dynamic-response-system. The noises are caused by the storage of the hydraulic stabilizers and can be The Stabis are stored in pressed rubber bushings, which obviously get too much game at an early stage. Somehow you know about older cars, where noises also occur due to aging of the bushings and the driving comfort suffers. So hold someone similar experiences and how did he deal with them? CR

Hello guys, I’m currently looking for a new car and it’s supposed to be an SUV. I’m about to decide between 2 models… Once the VW Touareg and the Jeep Grand Cherokee. I like both of them very well and are identical from the equipment, first registration and mileage. First registration is in 2008 and the mileage is at both approx. 15,000km. Both diesels. Have you had positive or negative experiences with one of the two models? Which car is the result of Is the VW service better than that of Jeep or Chrysler? What would you take and why? I am happy about your answers and hope you can help me!? Thank you Honso82

Hello ,an acquaintance is looking for a cheap (price, maintenance) five-door off-road car,area of use mainly shorter distances on the road and occasionally to bring wood with the trailer into the forest (national production is a must).Since much to me besides the long Vitara (Rostmöre) only the sportage around Bj.95. Since I have no experience with this vehicle (rust and mechanics) I would be happy about tips and experiences of others! Which engine is more reliable the 97hp or de 128hp 16V?

Hello dear forum, since I’m going to be in November 18, I’m starting to plan my car.Since I’m working in the forest, only a four-wheeler in sight from the beginning.For a long time I’ve been caring with a Lada Niva 4×4…I just like the car very well and is also affordable for me from the price.The only thing that bothers me about the Russian is that it’s almost only available as a petrol engine and what I heard from my acquaintance so he should swallow like a lo So that the Niva as a normal petrol engine would be too expensive for me in the maintenance, but there is still the possibility to upgrade it to autogas, which is why I am here today.Do you have experience with the conversion to autogas, especially at Lada? Is the conversion worthwhile? What would I have to reckon with for?….And I would like to “do” the Niva a little bit more high cars, so I would also install a set of higher and coarser tyres. t how much cost would I have to calculate if I were to carry out all these modifications? mfg Robert

Hello dear ones! I’m sure you’ve already read a lot about this topic. Nevertheless, I’d like to turn to you because I don’t see through the information anymore. So, I need a new car. But we have 2 children and a dog. Of course the car should offer space. In addition, I want to be flexible and sometimes transport my horse. Think of the “thickness” so weighs on the 480 kg. I don’t have a hanger yet, but I calculate it with 700 – 750 kg. Käme so think a car with 2000 kg trailer load is nice, but not necessarily economical and useful for us. Because more I drive back and forth between kindergarten and school. Could I sometimes expect a car of the 1300 kg to pull something like that? As diesel of course! Or what do you mean? Must it be a off-road car or a kind of van (though thought about the Doblo (120hp diesel) because of the place, yes, just don’t laugh ; -) Or what about the Terios? Would be nice if I could get some tips here. Thank you very much!

Hello together, I plan a holiday in Corsica. Since I may also want to take some beaches under the wheels there it will probably not be missing here and there to lower the air pressure and increase it again. Now I am looking for an inexpensive compressor that is operated either over the battery or over the cigarette lighter. 215/65R16 wheels have to be filled up. Probably only from 1.5 to 2.2 bar. So nothing dramatic. Thanks!

Hello, wanted to ask the experienced community, which pick up should I get. Yes, it must be a pick up, because I just like the car and I need the characteristics.What should he be able to pull? -> Trailers 2-3t (have horses) -> off-road capability (but the total off-roader I am not, meadows and rough forest paths) -> Comform (useful paltz with my nearly 2m size -> Double Cab) -> Something should go on 120-160hp -> Used car BJ 2002 – 2008 -> Technology / funkt It has to ionize -> All-wheel switchable -> Good locking behaviorWhich brands/models have I already thought about? -> Toyota Hilux -> Nissan Navara -> Mazda BT-50 Hope you can advise me well, because I bought one before spring 2013. New car does not come into question financially. I found a lot in the range 10-15t €. Have recently an Audi A4 year 2000, but it is really pleasant from the driving comfor. But the seat is at the back and at the bottom and I still have an Audi A4 year 2000, but it is really pleasant from the driving comfor. My mother has a RAV 4 (Bj 2007 136hp) but this is a woman’s car through and through. How do you do it with the insurance, for the purpose of trucks and therefore cheaper?I forgot something more. My daily off to work are about 20km of country road, live even on the “mountain”. And for the winter, I want to have four-wheel drive. Highway I drive on average 2x and the 100km.

Hi, my name is Philipp and I am the new I have had my driver’s license since November last year and am currently driving a Renault Clio. A nice car and it fully fulfills its purpose as a first car. But now I am increasingly thinking about another car. I have been very interested in jeeps and other off-road vehicles for a long time, but I can’t afford such a car because of fuel consumption. My Clio consumes around 6 to 7l. At 8l it would be so unheard of. I’m looking for a car with which I can also drive to the festival (metal festival). Visually, I’m looking for such cars as this one:http://www.motorvision.de/…/offroad-berg-strecke.jpg or (may such ads be shown here? If not, please delete):http://www.autoscout24.de/Details.aspx?… I don’t like a VW. Do you know something that would be recommended for me? If you still have information bria cht to narrow down the election, then tell me =) I already thank you for the answers, Grützi Philipp

Hi people Hope you can help me. I’m looking for a towing vehicle for a 3/4 horse trailer, need 3.5t trailer load. Actually, I’m a fan of the Defender, but this is not really motorized (must be a diesel) and in the hand-operated version also not exactly the yellow of the egg in the trailer operation. Then I got there in the forum also a hint that the Defender in the trailer operation gets extremely at its power limits and already As I mostly travel in the Bernese Oberland, a certain power is of course an absolute must for me. Now, from the archaic type, which a Defender reflects for me, the off-road primeval rock JEEP can easily keep up with. And with JEEP I like the Wrangler Unlimited in Sahara execution. Now I am looking for tips, at least also from horse fools, who can tell me if a Wrangler Unlimited with the 2.8 CRD machine is suitable for the trailer operation. Since I can not tucker with my 3 horses from garage to garage and test different towing vehicles 2, 3 weeks, I am naturally dependent on information and experience of Wrangler drivers, but also look forward to tips from drivers of other manufacturers, am very brand-open. In advance thank you very much for your efforts. Salut Alfan
