  • The GMD has now set up the customer service…

    I had 30.12. delivery. Train to train…. From my old P the WR had to be mounted on the new P and the new SR had to be sent to me by freight forwarder. I had sent my old SR by freighter to the GMD so that they could then be mounted on my old P. Shipping cost 65 €. Today I get an invoice from the GMD. For this operation net 225.- € will be due….. Of course there are costs for shipping. Is not a topic. But 225.- € net….????

  • Abgsa control light – motor rucksacks

    Hello, it’s going to be crazy… the following problem: engine jerks very strongly and exhaust control light lights. Workshop has now replaced all 8 injection nozzles, as well as the spark plugs. Vehicle has worked for 2 days, now the error is back. Error memory says: various ignition oscillators, as well as ignition oscillation cylinders 1 and 2. Interesting: one Lamba probe has 800 [something] current, the other 144. Well, tomorrow again in the workshop. Would only like to know what awaits me this time…

  • Once again purchase advice Phaeton 3.0 TDI some questions open

    Once again purchase advice Phaeton 3.0 TDI some questions open Hope, I’m not annoying with these questions, I didn’t find that out. Think about buying one. 2008 or 2009 Bj. Then there are different diesel 176 kW (239 hp) then Euro 5 has the 171 kW (232 hp) with Euro 4, but what’s the difference, or which is the better / more durable? If I have found out correctly, do I pay for both 463€ taxes per year, right? Does everyone have the electric rear flap to open and close? The air suspension is certainly not series? Is there still a prospekt to look at these Bj? (Yes I know search engines, hope one can make life easier for me) Thanks for your trouble, I have already read some things, I haven’t got it out yet. Oh one question I ask here again, Allrad is certainly not standard on board?

  • And bye – sale of one of the last GP0

    Hello together, even if I was not the most active member here, I have read a lot. With me it is now time to say goodbye, the family council has met and the beautiful GP0 should go away. I fought for a long time, but unfortunately remained unsuccessful. Background is the increasing space requirement and slowly it gets tight despite the roof box, because we quite often drive away a few days with the car. The thought was to keep the vehicle and to moth, on the other hand, I speculate on it sometime a well-kept W12 GP0 for this purpose. Hope now at least to achieve a halfway acceptable price for the car, but from my ideas I already went down a good bit… Successor becomes a Cayenne S, also not a bad car. If someone is interested, he can gladly contact me:http://suchen.mobile.de/…/190096727.html?… I am really sorry that car has to give up. But only to put it in the garage it would be too

  • Hand wash

    Hi Forumler, My leasing vehicles always look pretty scratched after 3 years of maintenance and countless car wash (although these were brush-free). The hand wash should still be the gentlest cleaning variant for the paint. Who of you carries them out yourself? I did it for the first time today and am already looking forward to the result.. I used quite normal soap and a sponge. What techniques/stricks are there? And what means do you use? I have trouble getting the insect residue out of the paint. Is there perhaps a means that organic dirt can “andow” so that it can be removed more easily? LG, Alex PS: I was just in the garage. It doesn’t look that bad at all, but you can see dried water stains everywhere.

  • ADAC , AvD etc…

    I would need your help, which “panning service” along with diverse insurances would you make as a private man to your contractual partner? One hears there various recommendations, there are big price differences, the ADAC is partly politically ill-oriented, the AvD too small without proper network, etc., etc….. . I play with the idea to secure myself with such an organization additionally,- so would need your advice. Basics: Several vehicles, partly without mobility guarantee – since Oldtimer/Youngtimer, insurance cover for all Europe with two children under 18. Thanks for the help.

  • Extended chief function?

  • Again: tail cover does not open!

    Hello, the search doesn’t bring me great further, the following problem: Cover at the back does not open, whether with operation inside, remote control or micro switch in the VW sign. Border conditions: no automatic opening/closing via hydraulics – normal series! mechanical unlocking in the VW sign does not clamp/functions! WD40 looks (perhaps) straight. When pressing the FB: turn signal, i.e. probably cable breakage. But I heard today, where still everything worked a rattle through a loose / broken part in the left part of the lid. Put on the lid and then sensitive (with force 🙂 turn the key unsuccessfully until now 🙁 Helps only the axe or can opener!? I am grateful for any help!

  • Phaeton GP1 (Facelift)

    In March 2007 the revised version of the Phaeton was presented to the public. The Facelift includes the following innovations: LED daytime running light dynamic and static cornering light for the Bi-Xenon headlights DVD navigation system new distance control tempomat with “Follow-to-Stop” function as well as environment observation “Front Assist” lane change assistant “Side Assist” revision of the V6-TDI: performance increase, consumption reduction and an improved exhaust emission standard (EURO 5) The performance is now 225 hp (V6 TDI). discreet optical retouching – changed radiator grill – special individualizations by “Volkswagen-Individual” Some negative impressions of the Phaeton drivers signs are the following: – fall of the comfort belt – fall of the comfort resolution – fall of the V10 TDI – fall of the trunk chrome – less massage power of the 18 way seat – changed phones with voice recognition ( with roof antenna ! )
