Hello, wants to renew brakes at a lupo 1,7 sdi rear. Wanted to know if there is a shaft seal ring in the brake drum? And if the bearing is in the drum?

Hello guys, I have a curious problem there! With the Lupo my father, 1.0l, year 2000, the mileage after welding the exhaust system suddenly increased to 764,000. He was with it at a workshop at the tank. I think, you probably didn’t think to shut down the battery. Nice stupid!!! I was then at the friendly here on site, thought they can undo that. Misinformation! They have no access to the system, for safety reasons. The correct mileage can be proven by workshop calculations. Don’t really understand that! The workshop master actually advised me to look for such a “tacho service” ?? I don’t see any, 100 € or more to spend, just to get the correct speedometer. There must be an honest possibility. The current status is stored in the control unit, or? Would I be happy if someone has any idea. Already thanks in advance Grusss vectrapaule

Hello, I’m new here and need help: I’ve been hearing the flasher noises for a long time, although I hadn’t hit a flasher, i.e. on a straight setting from the turn signal switch. Here it doesn’t matter whether I’m driving or standing…. the noises are irregular, sometimes 10 sec nothing, then 10 times in 5-7 sec. It’s the turn signal on the steering wheel kaput- that’s what I know, but I just want to turn off the noises– can you do something on the cables under the steering wheel (I had broken down the cover)– that the turn signal goes on, as until today, but without noise???? Thank you in advance jp.

Hello guys, I unfortunately have a huge problem with my vw lupo 3l during the drive he lost power and when I wanted to turn him on again he jumped on but only took gas until 2000 turns and went straight back out since the problem is this: he starts running a few seconds and goes out again,if you press on the gas (full gas or half) he takes it up to 2000 turns and then drains off the lmm I have already installed and tried from another 3l but it is still the same problem start pilot sprayed in and it is still exactly as before someone knows what that can be by chance? hydraulic pump runs normally hydraulic oil is inside lmm can’t be it because I already tried it at vw the mechanic who must work through it and I would like to fix it myself because I’m not just unsolicited but unfortunately I don’t find the error to help you

hello had that already already one ?? I have a lupo 1.0 liter bj 2000 I thought yesterday evening I drive the fast still under the roof so that it is a bit protected if there is in the night frost!!!! then I drove it back again about 10 meters and then turned it off again! today I go out and want to turn it on but nothing does happen already passed through but otherwise nothing was first thought was maybe a marder in the engine room so look again but there were no traces of a marder! also nothing else striking!!! so again I tried to start again only the orgling of the reason then a little thought maybe the benzin pump looked for but unfortunately no one was found in the book it is described as a zapfsäule and in the lid is not to find a zapfsäule then I was so far that we wanted to drag it to the laborsatt then and I stopped again the door and there I also heard the benzinpumpe and then he went funnyly to say that it was a bit more than usual?

Hello and Frohes Fest dear motor talkers!! Have an interesting problem which I can not get myself.. And indeed my girlfriend got a new radio and I bought her new boxes. When I wanted to install these I almost fell over over. Ugble patching mess from the previous owner, on the driver side was the original plastic holder with plug still on, possibly also the original box (bosch or something), on the passenger side was installed a magnat box, but like! Of the original plastic holders was to be seen nix, the thing was with such a kind of aluminum tube distance pieces and rusty screws at the door fixed. Also from the original plug was to be seen. Well, I first had the new boxes reasonably properly attached. Now to the actual problem: wanted to install the new radio today but already the car (with the original VW alpha radio) to our garage was cracked it by the original radio and wonderful as soon as I heard the sound of the radio. But there was no new radio again.

Good morning With my Lupo 1.2TDi 3l the error message appears, Relay J509 defective. This relay is fixed in the control unit (6E0 909 703) for the steering aid. Unfortunately, this control unit is no longer available in Switzerland. The car is already 10 years old after all… Does anyone have information about the relay so that I can replace it (control unit is dismantled so far and the circuit board is removed) or does someone have a whole control unit at a fair price, which I can buy? As last option I see the expansion of the electric motor to make the steering slightly smoother, if I find no relay or control unit. Does anyone have experience with this step? Is there something special to consider? I am happy about every help and thank you already in advance. Best regards, Alex

Hello! Since yesterday I have sold my BMW 320iC with full equipment and only 37800km from Bj.: 98 for 8100.-€ because current fuel prices and consumption have slowly become too high for me. Also where I live plays Parklpatzoffer an important role. My decision now lies between a Smart Fortwo CDI, which consumption is at 3.6 (or 3.8 was that, city around 4-5 liters) and the parking search also according to the vehicle size will then cause me no more problems. I have thought about the Lupo FSI. The vehicle is already equipped with a direct injection device, used (according to the manual) in the city around 6-7 liters. But did not yet fully understand which fuel he needs, whether Super or SuperPlus. The equipment is also not bad, especially all safety packs, cliaautomatic and automated gearboxes, or even tiptronics to choose from? If one or the other has an FSI, I wanted to know with which fuel one should be able to pay attention to the vehicle? What is a fault?

Hello, I want to install tomorrow a trailer coupling on my Lupo, of course for cost reasons a ,, cheap , , ………. as well a Universal E set . the vehicle specific was simply too expensive . Lupo 1Liter , 50 Ps , ALL engine . In the guide are some symbols , where I am not sure . Right side… 1 turn signal right 2 tail light 3 Brens light 4 rear light ??? Left side ….. blue numbers 1 turn signal left 2 tail light 3 brake light 4 fog light ??? Then this is right so ?? Then continuous plus for the AFC module . According to contributions here in the forum you have to place a cable from front to rear, some write, directly from the battery …. others say somewhere from the fuse box …… If from the fuse box , then where exactly ? Now I look for the current map of the Lupo , then it can go off . Do you still have tips on what I should watch ? Greeting Munchener

Hello, at our Lupo – Rave, MKB=AUC, year of construction 2004, model year 2005 is the fuse rod, ACTE No. 6X3837177B, loose for several days. When driving, the rod pulls and makes noises. At the same time, it does not appear visible when closing up and closing, manually or via ZV. During the closing operations, the fuse rod moves up and down by about 1.5 cm. According to ACTE, at the bottom of the rod a bellows, ACTE No. 3B0837861A, sit. My question: How is the fuse rod connected to the locking unit and what function does the fold bellow have?
