  • VW Amarok in four-wheel mode poorly steerable (manoeuvrability)

    Hi, we got new vehicles at work, among others also a VW Amarok with switchable all-wheel drive. Now to my question: When I drive in four-wheel drive mode I noticed that the maneuverability is very limited, it is probably a differential lock active (we have a model without switchable diff lock). Is it normal that you hardly come around the curve when the all-wheel drive is switched on. In the terrain it is still possible, but if you then briefly asphalt under the wheel If the four-wheel drive stays in it, and you still try to turn to solid ground, then you feel that it’s not good for the car, it pushes hugely over the wheels, and Ruckelt, moreover, it’s hard to drive as if you had a flat tire. I quickly turn off the four-wheel drive with such things, but there will certainly be colleagues who don’t do it. So, now again my question: Is it normal that in the A, you get, and you want to turn there, you have no chance. llradmodus the maneuverability clearly suffers, and what can be broken if you drive such maneuvers despite all-wheel drive?

  • Deactivate Track Hold Wizard

    Moin, I’d like to get an Amarok in about 2 months. I’m already on trial. I’m madly disturbed by the tracking assistant. Is there a way to permanently deactivate it? Sunny greetings from the North Sea coast

  • LT 35 2nd generation: Left turn signal on trailer does not work!

    Hey dear community! For some time now we have the problem at our company LT 35 of the 2nd generation that the turn signal on the left of the trailer does not work. Additional turn signal module has already been changed, without result! Oddly, however, that the light concerns when I break the module and close the contact switch by hand in this. So there is electricity from the part to the plug socket, so somewhere something has to be wrong from the turn signal lever to the module! Before I break everything up here and find me a wolf, where can I best start, measure or test anything else? Safeguards seem to be I.O! Which would be responsible for this?

  • MAN TGE with 120 kW engine

    Hello dear forum, one of you knows a little more about the 120kW diesel in the MAN TGE. Is this a new engine or is there already long-term experience. I am interested in all information about the engine, especially compared to the 130kW engine. I have attached the performance data from the MAN documentary once. https://www.man.eu/…/man_tge_technical_data.pdf

  • VW Amarok – Gearbox switches cold heavy and noisy

    Moin! in another forum I have read more and more that the Amaroks (or Amaroks? ) cause problems when switching at cold temperatures (1st to 3rd gears) and give bad noises of themselves. According to VW it is supposed to only be the case with switchable four wheel, but also a few with perm.4×4 have the same problem. Does any of you already have problems with the transmission? 4×4 type and mileage please specify with me Maybe I better wait with the purchase until the skirts in Hanno construction.

  • Amarok in trailer operation

    Good day together, we’re just thinking about getting such a ride. But background is that we want to/have to pull a 3.5 ton trailer with it, according to a seller at a dealer, the “this only works up to 2,8 to. ” , is that really true ? Prerequisite further would be that car needs a car registration so that we can drive on Sundays too. Does someone have an info for me, thank you so much

  • VW LT 31 Year 1977

    Hello! I would like to buy a cheap transporter for 2 Moto Cross machines. So the transporter should last 1x in the week about 10km and 1-2x in the month longer routes to Hungary. I would have found an offer there already and namely:http://www.brauchtwagen.at/detailansicht.php?id_fahrzeug=4159793 Unfortunately I don’t know about commercial vehicles. What would interest me, there are experiences, you can move the on the highway with 130 km/h without having to The number of kilometres with 200,000, is that rather little for the engine or is there any experience that you can throw the already confidently into the ton? What do I have to pay attention to when inspecting the vehicle, purchase test probably mandatory? Maybe someone can write something to the vehicle would please me. Comfort I don’t care, it should only serve as a transport vehicle for 2 Moto Cross and keep the rides mfg, Mario
