  • Comparison Renault and VW

    Again and again I read here in the forum about the allegedly so expensive brand VW compared to Renault. Now my wife and I drive a Renault Kangoo 1.9 DTI and a new VW Caddy Life. The VW was for us the cheapest full-fledged 7 seater, which we could get. Through the “Volkscaddy-Aktion” there were the cars already from 12990 Euro, for that there is for example no comparable Kangoo. The Caddy plays from the size in a different league than the Kangoo. For that the Kangoo with its 80 HP f Lotter on the road than the heavier caddy with 102 hp. The Kangoo with the diesel engine is simply rustic and very casual to move. The caddy looks more impressive due to the dimensions and with the very quiet petrol engine somehow finer. My sympathy as a brand has unlimited Renault. I would never drive a golf, just like a current BMW or Mercedes. That VW can also serve other tastes, than the pronounced spitter shows for me the beautiful, in Poland g produced VW Caddy Life.

  • Car warranty! Fake!

    what a fake people, the “car guarantee” of renault. no one is sufficiently enlightened. main thing of the buyer signs quickly and doesn’t leave the small print at all! I bought a lagoon here (in wien) , year 2001. have 1 year used car warranty 7 stars, sounds quite nice. and partkasko insurance I also took out immediately, at generali, quite cheap. the partkasko also contains vandalism and parking damage protection. only those who have thought money saved In the case of insurance and the “car guarantee”, i.e. the 1 year guarantee, the buyer pays in the serious case himself… so the last one is bled. here I have from the “car guarantee” a sales- to the COUNTRY GARANTIEBED PEOPLE COSTS FULLY REFUNDED BY THE MANUFACTURER’S WORK PERIOD. GUARANTEE-BED MATERIAL COSTS WILL BE FOLLOWING THE UNBILITED PRICE RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE MANUFACTURER, EXCLUDED FROM THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE EMPLOYED PERIOD CONSTRUCTION COMPONENT FOR CAUSATION, HOW TO PAY (self-deposit) BIS 50,000km – 100% 60,000km-90% 70,000km-80% 80,000km-70% etc, up to more than 100,000km with 40% self-deposit. I ask myself why all this? prefer to buy a bucket around 1400 euro. search for low insurance and take out ONLY liability insurance and the history has itself. With the partial cascade it is also not better, since in case of a paint damage at least 250 euro self-deposit is collected, great becomes if the damage about 300 worth or less, because you pay everything yourself anyway… and then why pay so expensive insurance???? and the morale of history, you are being fooled or not!! Capitalism

  • The “Ultimate Cheap Car”

    What would you think of a “ultimative low-cost car”, i.e. the ganods of the Dacia Logan developers simply to the end, say an extreme Dacia Logan, without any unnecessary frills only to drive from A to B, quite true to the motto “Geiz ist geil”, “Because simply is simple” or “Where nothing is also nothing can be broken”, the existing should of course be robust and keep as long as possible, without which something breaks, the parts should be as easy as possible. to be up to date with the latest technology, to avoid high fuel costs, the idea of throwing out everything that doesn’t serve to get as cheap as possible from A to B. Sounds crazy, but still writes what you think of it, thanks in advance MFG

  • Again:Renault and breakdown statistics

    Bin Audi, Mercedes and Renault driver (Scenic is driving my wife, year 2001). I experience the best service at Renault by far, have R-Plus guarantee and we are very satisfied with the Scenic. Oh, I could also say that from AUDI and Mercedes. AUDI is now sitting on a very high horse and Mercedes knows despite various quality problems the word Kulanz only in the context of “ABGELEHNT!”. My 210-er from 2001 has various rust and frontach problems, But with Mercedes everything is covered up (a The star on the hood and the car letter)! What I paid for the Renault and got a lot of driving pleasure for it – people who complain about Renault should drive German premium brands. MfG

  • Used car ~2000€ for beginners

    Hi, it’s funny that there is no direct board for purchase advice, but well. I am a driver’s license euling+student and wanted to buy a car. Budget is at 2000€ to the end. Had looked around me and for that one could get a Renault Clio or a R19. The R19 should be better in terms of space, right? What about Lagunas? It’s important to me that the car doesn’t need too much fuel and also doesn’t break so much. The car should definitely last 2 years. the car should at least get on German motorways relatively well, so don’t crawl away at 120km/h… I’m of course open for other suggestions, also from other manufacturers. =) Thank you

  • Voltage on Lambda probe

    Can someone tell me how high or in which frame the spg. for the lambda sound must be?? and how do I measure the?? so turn off or on and off and just get up or how do I do that??? why I come up with that is quite simple, so I have the problem that my little one in the stand is running very restless and then my works said that I should measure the lambdaspaanunnng. I would repent. please if goes to the end of the week, then I have to get to the cart anyway and I’ll check it out.

  • Shock absorbers?

    I’ve had a 508sw GT with now 20tkm on the clock for about 6 months. With heat it squeaked at some point out of the steering column. In the 3rd run the workshop managed to do it after all. So far. At the same time more and more on the alarm clock, that there was a flap from the rear vehicle area and pinning. The flap then finally got under control quite quickly. There was something on the back bench. But the problem of poltern seems not to be solvable. low speed on a bad road or on cobblestone pavements there is a really bad poltern from the rear area. It sounds kind of strange hollow/muffled and comes from the area of the axle. The dealer changed the shock absorbers on suspicion, which however did not bring anything. Then he had the car again after a week for 3 days in the workshop and then you told me nothing can be done, the car sounds like that. can’t believe that a modern car in the price class 40k€+ is allowed to sound like this. I was then today with a 2nd Peugeot dealer, where then the workshop master told me quite disilosioned, that he had already 2 customers with GTs with him, who had described the same problem. With a customer one even had a ‘upper master’ of Peugeot in the house, who could only realize that the rear axle ‘just sounded like that’. The 208 I recently called Lei I do not hope that all the prejudices that exist regarding Peugeot will be confirmed by me with regard to rattles and pins. I am, however, quite speechless. Have seriously already thought about a change (probably already too late) or sale. My trust is very clouded. Does anyone have an idea or similar experiences here? Thank you already in advance for every comment!!

  • 407 SW ABS/ESP defect

    Hello, as it says in the headline, a small problem with my ABS/ESP. I get an error message that my ABS/ESP is defective with a slightly stronger brake. I have now read/tested the parameter values with a tester and all 4 ABS sensors work. It’s funny that only with a slightly stronger brake the error message comes. Can it be completely on the brake light switch? Or what else could it be? Thanks Lg
