Hi, everybody! I’m interested in a spactourer and I’m about to do a test drive. Before that, I’d like to ask you a few questions: – There’s probably no luggage room cover for the size M with 5 seats – are there alternatives? – It’s the same with a separation net behind row 2. – Where do you store the warning triangle, first-aid kit, etc.? – Are there any ideas to use the space between the front seats somehow meaningfully? – Does anyone have experiences with “Grip Control”? – In the configuration or you can order additional ashtrays and cigarette lighters – where are they installed? Thanks in advance! Chris

Hello, have installed a Webasto auxiliary heater from the workshop. Should be ex factory, but was “forgotten” (eventually because it was not available in the edition at once) and was retrofitted at the dealer “original”. Under 15 minutes at -5 degrees I do not notice much of heat. Should the heater blower be placed on the windscreen before the car? Or does it only warm up the engine cooling circuit? With me the actual blower does not run with 8 which I actually expect In order to get the windows free), only at the engine start, engine temperature then so 70 degrees. Do you need to switch it off by itself at the engine start or can/may it continue to run? It is only programmed via the remote control or is there still an extra level of control in the Info menu? I’m not so sure if this is all so ok. vG Rudi

I drive a V250d long, rear drive with 180.000km on the clock. I am 4th hand and EZ 01/16. Ride it since 02/22. Have 2 dogs and a child. For the holiday the mother-in-law also usually goes with. Although this is hardly affordable the holiday… Now the problems are starting or for my 1st Benz it didn’t go well. Problems: – Electric sliding doors – Electric parking brake does not always jump out. Belongs with the brake HA completely new made with electric motor and ropes et c. (The engine is also not quite fixed) – Some one has installed sport springs 20mm all around, the thing is zero Comfortable and really not fun, because it is so hard. I would take the leveling from KW and no original, which is even more expensive than that from KW, it would get with installation for approx. 3300€, which is really a lot of money, cathedral bearings etc. I would also join in the same. – Service A is now due but you always have that. – Driver seat new a ufpadded – air conditioning service complete – chrome strip rear (loading edge protection) a little broken & probably 1 sensor defect Yes that was just a bit, I’m just torn back and forth, which runs until the beginning of 2029, because it was a full financing with 4.19% at the Santander. New V-Class is too expensive, T6 has no good engines except the 150PSler, T7 would possibly have what because the good interest, otherwise still Tourneo Custom or Galaxy and Proace Verso, whereby I like to again because of space on It’s really stupid because the used ones all have 6-8% interest rates and I’m driving cheaper now. Check out your opinions, Vill will help me.

Hello, I would like to install a heater in my expert HDI 130 from 2021. Now I always read from retrofit kit if you have a heater. How do I find out if my box has one of these?

Hi I have an Opel Zafira life and would like to know if there is a Rec installed in my car, I can find out without removing the panel or at which side it sits right or left and how to remove the panel

hi, my husband and I would like to buy a small bus or a long van to remodel it in for travel. since we have had bad experiences with our old car in terms of High Reperature cost the last 3 years we thought rather of a year to venture. thought e.g. of the small Citroen space bus, or something like that in the direction. should not exceed them 30 000. does someone recommend durable models in the premium class? Box van would also be in question, a few PS zb 110 would be okay. one should be able to lie out behind the front seats from the length, back seats we build out. Bed will take off under stars etc. so looking for a durable driving kit. does anyone have experience with the small Citroen space bus? or other ideas where price and performance would fit our project? sg

I have to leave out a bit about the DARS in Slovenia: there are two different toll categories for two-lane cars. 2A and 2B for <=3.5 tons. the difference here we defined as follows: "The height of the vehicle above the first axle is the distance between the ground and the highest point of the vehicle in a plane running perpendicular to the axle-semitting of the front wheels" (source: https://evinjeta.dars.si/en/liste-der-versuchten-fahrzeuge). (of course) the OZL. what is not in it? all sister models (peugeot traveller, citroen spacetourer, ...) which are NOT campers. on my request why the sister models do not have to pay the more expensive toll, but only the OZL, was always avoided with the answer that our car is in the list. at some point I got the answer that the sister models (of course!) have all been measured and all under the magic limit of 1,30m are. yes....clear....certain....a proof that the others have all been measured with the values and mestimes, they do not want to give me. and, quite friendly: I get the answer from them by now: "The discussion is finished here". very nice customer service. I feel rather unfairly treated, because I drive a car with the wrong logos, otherwise I would always save myself the half (!!!) of the toll fees in Slovenia. but maybe d see Is any of you different from me and can take away mine?!
