Category: US Cars Forum

Hello everyone,I have now fulfilled a dream and bought me a Cadillac Fleetwood. The vehicle is in a top condition, very well maintained etc. My real problem is that the car has from time to time detonator ?, the cat has dissolved into its best parts, literally melted down.The candles look good. So the problem is as follows: drive at constant speed and at once no more gas acceptance, full throttle rumble and he walks again Like hell. This occurs in irregular distances. I also had a stable ruckel during constant drive. It is a 4.5 l V 8 installed with TBI injection system. Have also measured the fuel pressure, which is OK. Has a tip or an idea where to look ?? The Caddy is BJ 1989

Hello all, I am currently looking for a vintage car project, because I want to get into the hobby of auto restoration a little bit. For tools and a large garage was taken care of widely. Now the question arises what it is to become for a car. The budget for the purchase is c.a 3000€. Here comes the question among other things what it looks like with the spare parts supply. Exactly there I would have a question like the spare parts costs of US cars for example white e ines Ford Ltd 1978 differ from a German car like a Mercedes W115. Can one say there flat-rate whether US spare parts are more expensive or more difficult to get? With American cars it will probably be necessary to import parts from the USA with customs duties. Or are there in Europe also recommended spare parts dealers for US cars to save themselves high shipping and customs costs. Would be great if you could help me here further, since it is my decision clearly It would make it easier.

Moin, from the restoration of the GTO I still have about $400 new spare parts here, and I’m thinking about sending them back to the dealer (he would also take them back). Of course, this only pays off if there is anything left under the bottom line. Therefore, a few questions – someone knows a shipper who sells space in the container (like US import service towards Europe)? – can you get customs and import sales tax back? I have an EORI number, but I don’t know about customs VAT. How can you avoid paying customs in the USA? Is it enough to settle the old bill? Thank you in advance….

Hello municipality I have bought a Cadillac SRX 4,6 it! The car has 97 TKM down! Is Bj 12/04! unfortunately he may have problems with the AGR because he has been standing longer! Therefore I have some questions and hope that some people can possibly help! Questions: – AGR where does he sit with the car? – with which software can you read out the car? – Sliding roof maintenance. – Is it possible to upgrade with the car USB ? – Is it possible the TV from the car to set up on DVBT-2 ? – Is there any experience with LPG gas in the car? Valves should be soft! I would be happy if you could help me there! Also like PN!!!! I am myself from Münsterland!

Hi! I have to replace my rear speakers because one is def.. The original ones had 10 ohms but only 4 ohms. Sounds rather bad, very unclean. I don’t want a boom boom, just clean sound. How can I change that? But I really want to hold onto my original radio, because nothing new fits and doesn’t look like it. A “leading electronics store” recommended with 6 ohms of resistance parallel, but I haven’t tried anything. ngen with?

I would like to have nights a car with rat style so top technique etc, but look like lettad slingshots:-D about this style but not as crass as the mesmerized rats

So , OBD 2 scanner for chevrolet 5.3 l tahoe, Gm,BJ 2003, 213 KW !!Engine code “t“ What I know: I probably need J1850 VPW protocol on the scanner ! It probably runs out on an Actron device , or Memoscan U581 or Autoxray EZ 6000 ( All between 70€ – 250€ to have ) Autoxray unfortunately only from USA – Mist ! After using the search function I still have the following question ? If dan which Actron and ( Live data have they all or ( Actron I do not know exactly ) the other two Yes ) which it shows most codes thus also possibly transmission and not only engine control device codes and indeed IN GROAD FORM – not only as a pay code with lookup in iternet!!!!! – let me change a position ( zb ignition time – V-max lifting like predetor tuning device )! Or what kind of device in the above price range I would not know yet you would recommend ! ( No tech 2 -too expensive ) Since I am “halfway` well prepared on the topic as you see above I would e ine purely factual,technical consultation hope – no talk about meaning and purpose of an own OBD scanner or intervention in motor management etc.blabla bla … not meant bad only to relieve finger .. Thank you for all the experiences and tips of you !!!

Hi, since I wanted to make myself a little smarter as a layman, I have read in Wikipedia what can be found on the topic of starter battery. It is written that the starter batteries have to be transported horizontally, not to be tilted or shaken, as otherwise they will take damage. Is that so? Was it a mistake under these face spunks to order an optima for me online? I’m afraid the transport companies are not interested in whether the flame-new, sa uteure battery may be damaged by rough shipping methods at least. Greeting wogro
