  • Buy GT – yes or no?

    Looking for people who have had experiences with Opel GT. I would like to get one, but since I don’t know about cars – i.e. besides the usual little things I can’t do anything myself or even repair – would I like to know if there are any problems? And above all: how does he drive himself in winter? A car salesman said he doesn’t have a rear drive, but 50/50, and it wouldn’t be a problem if you took the smallest winter tires that fit the car. I’m going from the Westerwald to the Taunus. Thank you for your advice!

  • Opel Calibra 2.0 4×4 16V and 204 PS tuning etc..?

    Hello first of all, I’m new here and have already informed myself a little about the topics around the calibra. Of course I don’t know if I have the right to open a new forum. My concerns or/or questions: I want to buy a Calibra as described above very soon. My questions to you are: How much horsepower can I bring it? How much harm can I do to the engine? What can I do at all? What do you recommend to me with the engine, turbo, exhaust etc. turn/improve, or buy? And at the end a somewhat stupid question, the tachometer at the dashboard, does it go up to 260 or up to 280? In the Internet/youtube there are always other tachos shown. So if you can help me that would be very great. Thanks already in advance.

  • Workshop carrying joint Calibra

    Hello, I had to go to the Tüv and the one at the front to the right of the carrying joint. So I drove to a Free Workshop and gave them the order to change the joint. They did so too. Only in what way! The old joint was fastened with rivets to the cross-leker, so that the work first had to drill the rivets. Then the locksmith took a hammer and Meisel and removed the drilled rivets with it. Only he hit the axle to which the carrying joint was still attached. After 30 minutes!!), I wanted to go home and realized that it was a terrible blow when it was speeding up.And the track is also totally distorted. So I drove back to the factory. and they didn’t think that they had done everything right.And you didn’t have to stop the track, because they wouldn’t have done anything about it! If I was going into a left-over or the clutch, that’s it and the Cali runs quite quietly. I then drove to the foh, and she said: Then, that when the joint was disassembled, the drive shaft was probably damaged or pulled something out of the gearbox when riveting with the hammer. He would have had to release the drive shaft a little bit, or the carrying joint first from the axle. And the track would have to be adjusted, because something was changed on the chassis.And especially since my Cali was even deeper he would have had to install the carrying joint under prestress! So I drove again to this Pfu… workshop and wanted to clarify this. But no chance. They didn’t even try it to convince themselves that something beats. Now I turn on a lawyer after a huge fight. An expert commissioned him to look at the matter! The workshop now wrote to my lawyer that the car had even more defects. The brake lines would be a little rusty and he wanted to let me shut the car down by the expert. He couldn’t understand how I got it over the door. rage: Can this expert shut me down??

  • Rims Pre-Face Lift -> Facelift?

    Moin on all sides, do the steel rims fit from the pre-facelift to the facelift (6.5J15H2 ET33) 2.2i? Or do I have to buy new rims for the WR? Greeting Holger

  • muffled sound at ignition

    Hello, there are problems that you solve yourself and there are things that you discuss in advance. Location: -regular dull knocking, no valve clapping. With the help of the ignition gun, we could see that the camshaft wheel deviates from the mark after every 4th or 5th revolution by about a tooth width on both sides. -with an engine stethoscope we could hear the knock more clearly from the 1st piston – Based on the micro camera on the piston surface of the 3rd and 4th piston a bad too Seeing but blank spot -Zahntriebel: ohne Aufschrift (no name)? Is that crucial? First of all 2 videos, maybe there are good ideas, photos follow!!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z7R7DMDg0iA&feature=youtu.behttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xiE25yaKwU&feature=youtu.be Thanks already Panic

  • Calibra still squirts after repairing the cylinder head seal

    Hello here in the forum; the week broke my cylinder head gasket. Was just on the way to work and then suddenly a huge smoke cloud behind me and loss of performance. I drove then still the approx. 2km of 6km further and then put it at the workshop (not a car workshop, but my work place). In the evening I then filled up the cooling water and then slowly drove back home, where a large part of the cooling water was gone again. During the test drive (after approx. 4km) he started to smoke again when he had driven warm. I got the creep and quickly looked back home and after the cooling water. But to my surprise everything was still there. Can it be that while I was driving with defective cylinder head gasket a part of the cooling water ran into the exhaust and now evaporated again when it comes to operating temperature. have had the same problem or is the error different? Drive the 2.0i with 115hp, C20NE, 200000km run by Built 97. I am grateful for every tip, Greeting Stefan

  • Winter experiences!

    Hi people Something “funny” happened to me today…I drove up a road on which there was still snow, but split was skilfully scattered, which therefore came up with a little swing no problem, because at the close end of the snowy slope I could spot a parking lot which lay parallel to the road, one should rather call it a path. So I drove up with swing, but did not get into the gap with a blow, and there was the problem. I was half in the gap….back were It was still about 1 m to the nä. car and forward…tja there was the problem, no more went forward, because in the gap was not scattered and therefore snow. Great! To turn I need another meter more to the back, well and forward….you know, went nothing. What to do? Help far and wide none (forest rim), girlfriend shimmering heart attack, since we slipped back (God is not thanks to the car behind us) was still a meter of space. I cursed over rear drive and the stupid idea here h Then came the idea: floor mats out, under the wheel, slightly accelerated, BINGO! Could take out the meter to be able to turn. I was bright and relieved, but the floor mat first had to grumble out of the snow about 7 meters behind us. Do you also have such “amusing” experiences? Just post! Greetings, Tobi

  • Problems with refueling Opel GT

    Hi guys, when I refuel, it doesn’t start right afterwards (it lasts about 30 s until it starts properly). Problem only occurs directly after refueling. After that everyone is like that, so if nothing had been. Motor lamp still glows. The following I have already done: 1. Error read out -> lt. code is the Kraffstoff pressure sensor broken 2. Am to Opel -> told me the same and a new sensor installed 3. Problem was not fixed 4. So again to Opel -they said m 5. Problem again not eliminated 6. again to Opel – this time they told me may be due to the software, but they have to ask directly at Opel one gets in touch with me. That’s the current state. Am really desperate. Someone an idea? What else can that be? MfG
