  • Delay in delivery with panoramic roof

    Hello together. I ordered a Grandland B in January. I ordered the comfort package for it. Now there are different statements that there are problems with the panoramic roof. My FOH also told me to have heard about it, but my delivery date was still standing. I read from other people who ordered this, that the delivery time can be postponed by up to 12 weeks. As a reason I have of delivery difficulties of the panorama roof and that the roof mmel when opening and closing the doors should move. Maybe someone here has more or more detailed information about it. VG Tom

  • Vectra OPC – daytime running light with HappyLightShow sketch

    Hello people! I know you already had enough of the topic here, but I have a special concern – so don’t think “boah, already day driving lightfred again” And I ordered the famous Hansen daytime driving lights for my OPC (dimmable). Since I am very busy with the topic, I have of course already found all the topics “findable” by SuFu and studied installation instructions of different users. However, I would like to have the following circuit (skizz approach) hangs): -light switch position on off, ignition on > TFL lights with full luminosity (due to connection of the TFL cables to original NSW cable and adjustment of the HLS to DAY TRANSPORT the TFL shines also when locking up and locking with full luminosity) -light switch on STANDLICHT > wants the TFL not to turn off – but > TFL lights with half luminosity (immed) Something difficult to explain, I think a lay-like sketch (in the appendix) will provide understanding. M a question you can find on my sketch! Has anyone tried this circuit or does a tech freak know if it is as shown? Put me under the car in about a month – then it will be shut down and I would be interested in what you say! LG Roman

  • Insignia Sports Tourer OPC – Opinions before purchase

    Servus together, I hope you can maybe help me a little bit with my decision. I’ve been thinking about getting the Insignia Sports Tourer OPC for a few weeks now. I come from Audi and have absolutely no idea what to consider with Opel etc. How is this car for example in terms of quality? Would this car already be driving and can report about it (sorry that I have not searched the whole forum yet)? How do the conditions see here at the moment? What’s not so good about this car? Can you compare it to a current Audi S4? Would be great if you could help me a little bit further.

  • Astra OPC or Corsa OPC

    I’m posting the whole thing here again to get opinions from the “Astra Freaks” Hello, I, 19 years old, are currently driving an Opel D Corsa 1.4 90PS Sport Edition, but I’ve got the car for 2 years and need something real, with more power. 😉 I think you can understand me?! It should be a Opel because my dad has connections and gets a discount. Now I came to the Corsa opc immediately, as I think he looks really good and has also power. I’ve driven him “probe” several times.. But what about the Astra opc? I have already driven ( the Nürburgring Edition ) but only on a pakrplatz, not on the road. But I think that the driving fun with the Astra will be higher than with the Corsa but we will stop the fun at the gas station 😛 What would you recommend to me? How about the technology? Which one is more vulnerable? Which one is more fun? Is the 9L with the Corsa and 12 with the Astra realistic if you don’t exaggerate? n used by the Opel dealer, I think a Corsa for 17000€ or an Astra for 1900€ would be in it. But I have not yet inquired about the discounts of Dad etc. For my current car I would get so between 11000-12000 I think. Have only 17500km on it. But what doesn’t mean that I never drive a car, was probably 1 year more or less in the garage or Mama went shopping. In the month I drive around 700km. Insurance and taxes do not play any R olle, it’s taken care of. Thank you very much in advance.

  • Dog Box Zafira Life M

    Hello community and a happy New Year! Thanks to the young dog, we now get a Zafira Life M as a family car. Our dog needs a dog box that I would like to choose as ideal as possible and would like to hear about reviews by Zafira Life, Citroen Spacetourer, Toyota Proace,… drivers. We want to install the dog box at the back right of the bus. There are two tracks, these I would use for grooves, but I can’t find a box where appropriate shots are attached. How did you solve this, so that it lasts permanently and does not look like a provisional with lashings and tension straps? Furthermore, the question of a good box that fits (rather deep than wide and for a boxer) and a good solution, how to make the space above the box usable. If possible, would also be a pull-out drawer under the box for bowls, leashes, dishes, towel etc. an idea? Maybe someone has already implemented something like this and can help me. I h would be very grateful. Greetings from the snow rain Suedtiroler

  • C20XE Idle Problem…Help, go crazy soon!!!!!!!!

    Hello everyone, I don’t know any more. I tortured the search function like crazy, but unfortunately only with moderate success. to my problem: Drive a c20xe in Corsa B, took it from his rest about 6 weeks ago (there are 1.5 years away) and my empty run spins totally. When it’s cold it goes out almost without gas, when it’s warm stands the empty speed between 1500 and 1700 rpm. so now everyone will say clean and check empty run, I’ve already done, is blitzblank clean and the slider runs very easily, when creating 12 volts it also makes sure to open and close again. Bypass hose removed from the cylinder head cover and the connection to the throttle flap, runs through again nice air, cold start problem became slightly better… at least some white now slowly not much further, which I have the presumption that the empty controller is not defective, moves indeed very gur under tension. Would you like to install another but the dinger are so fucking expensive. Please help me, need urgently soon the asu and with such a leep speed I can bend thanks

  • the barrel without the floor again !

    Sooo, dear Oma-Gemeinde, I have to report nice again, after the numerous workshop visits I had so far with the bitchy oma now comes a new one. The reason, the climate compressor is broken, after, the car is now in the workshop and the dear mechanics wanted to change the climate compressor they noticed that the drain valve in the pipe has broken, i.e. I could have fetched the car yesterday already if everything had run according to plan, but like the should I’m so good at it. Maybe someone has tips on how to deal with a grandma who doesn’t have to play around with it? So good and sweet doesn’t work. Well……when the grandma comes out of the workshop, she goes on holiday with her…I’ll see what else you can think of on the trip to annoy me. So long… P.S. For once, I’m not the best friend of the tanker but the workshop.

  • Shepper devil ade!

    Hi, Since there are tens of threads to bang, clapping, rustling, squeaking, squeaking and grinding, and it’s always difficult for everyone else to imagine the car and its tones of the other, I didn’t batter for long this time and just went looking for yourself. I don’t know how you are, but I can’t stand these annoying sounds at the best mind (at the moment certainly not). This time there were several places. Two of them I could feel myself. The 1. Finally I could overcome to remove the painted heat protection sheet. An act, but at first looked lighter, when it turned out afterwards. The 2. This was the fastest and most convenient noise nuisance. At the 2 automatic transmission oil cooling lines is on the car floor, close steering lever a rubber holder … This was broken, so that a line was constantly on any unevenness on the road, against the The 3rd the most unpleasant. Every even so small hubbel was confirmed with a scraper. With the window method I could locate the approximate geographical location but no more, at least for the moment not. Under me I could not find anything loose with the hand. Until I then sitting side by side of the front wheel and completely baffled, almost with anger struck with the fist against the wheel. Then also the annoying shivering sound came to light. So ….flux in my works and report reported. A 3/4 hour later I and especially the omi could drive calmly from the yard. And now already for the second time this visit was free. But also decisively because I have first made timing belts read and exhaust bought. Be it as it will, even when braking is now the recently stronger flutter away. At least as far as the omi concerns I can now no longer complain. Climate works again. Exhaust I have again the ESD removed and worked with paste ..is now completely dense. Scheppern fixed. Timing belts have only been made. And 1.5 years of rest. Nice that you can also concentrate on other problems.

  • Audiovox

    Hello Have the radio of Audiovox vme 9309ts now installed in my Omi Facer bJ.08/2000. The radio goes on and everything runs but when I turn it off it loses all the transmitters. Then the fan on the back was so loud that after long back and forth I separated the fan with the side cutter. Maybe someone has an idea which cables I have to switch so that the radio keeps the transmitters and settings. Oh yes, someone has a solution in relation to the fan ? Greeting
