Hello, modern cars are getting quieter and quieter, this is now a course of things and can also be understood in today’s traffic density. Nevertheless, different cars also have a different engine / exhaust sound….could differ as a child in the 60s as well as every car on the KLang. Different manufacturers are now again trying to build acoustic design and even flaps in the exhaust system to make a slightly more sporty sound legally compliant. So the question: which old car is or new car beguiled by a nice sound?? Of the everyday cars I remember again and again spontaneously the old Audi 5 cylinder 2.3 E… which I once had. Also the old Alfas could do that very well… With the dream cars are certainly the Ferrari a class for itself…. and also the beautifully bubbling AMI V8 greetings Andy

Car just starts burning
Hello Motortalker, daily I read about such news in my daily newspaper: Car brand on the motorway A 35-year-old woman for Sunday morning at around 9 o’clock with her Ford car on the A81 direction Würzburg. At Markung Ravenstein she noticed that something was wrong with her car and stopped on the stand strip. When she brought her vehicle to a standstill on the stand strip, the flames from the engine compartment and the engine compartment burned out completely. r probably a technical defect. I read such messages all one to two weeks. Often, however, no brands are mentioned in the newspaper article. Now my call to all. Who has already had to deal with fires or but sees a car on the highway or the highway burn and can also say something about the brand and the model. Of course, should not be reported about cars ́s that have burned down after accidents. Background is my opinion that it is contrary to land-based Meinu There were once several fires at the Renault Espace of which I have already seen 2 of them burning down on the motorway myself. But there were also burning BMW ́s and others. Actually, no brand is immune to them.

Does a car make sense under 1000€?
Hi, I would like to get a cheap car for the next 8 months. Will live with it for a few months in a big city and then go to Madrid for half a year. Also inside. Spain are probably sometimes larger distances covered (e.g. to Barcelona). I don’t care about the look of the car. I don’t want to spend much money so it’s not bad when a dent comes in or jmd kicks off the mirror. I know about the technology. No, i.e. I would always have to go to the workshop for repairs. However, I always deal very carefully with cars. Does it make sense to buy a cart for less than 1000€? What are your experiences? Are there more (deure) related repairs here than with a 2-3k car? What about taxes and insurance, if I want to drive the car only 8 months? Do I then pay a full year or after months?

+15 km/h for almost no money
You go to the practitioner and buy an air channel there, so about 4x10x60cm of plastic and a flexible air hose with any diameter. Machining: Saw the air channel on the flat side in the middle so about 10 to 15 cm and at the end continue the cut by 90° to the wide side. Then a 15 cm piece is cut off at the other end, and the side wall is removed from it. remain the wide walls. These are cut to a wedge and at the end with the sc hnitt so that a funnel is created and screwed. At the other end the channel is closed, but important: leave a small opening so that the splash water can get out of the back. Then the channel is opened at the side, so that the hose you selected fits in just as well, but does not slip out. This tube is then hung with its other end to the inlet of the air filter and installs the channel so that the funnel in the wind is hung best the radiator grille, or down next to the tire, so that the wind can get in the best way. I did it that way and the “heavy” dirt flies out in the back again, because it, as well as the water through its inertia the 90° corner, where the hose goes to the flutter does not join. Experience worth it!! Have fun crafting!! Do you know what blooms when the bulls of the noticed?

Commissioning of a wagon
So sports friends my problem is this: have a fiat fiorino(BJ: ca.90/91, 40kw, otto, hr:1116cm3). he stood for a good 1 year now in the fresh air without running in the intervening time. since I have almost no idea at all, I would like to ask you to tell me what I have to consider before I put it into operation. I have already looked under the hood. a few things rusted like e.g. the tube to the exhaust back. when I wanted to start it was battery empty and no oil in it. I heard that I had to drain the old oil and change the oil filter. on the other side I also heard that I should take off the ignition plugs and let crawl oil flow into the engine. but someone else said that you should have done that before the shutdown. please tell me what I have to do. which fluids I might have to replace. what else I have to control so that I don’t have to go half way. stay down. thank you in advance

Brake frozen HELP!!
Hello finally it’s cold in Germany then something like this….my hand brake (stupidly attracted by my roommate) is frozen, I then drove off, seemed to go well. But now he cracks off and on while driving and the brake pedal can sometimes be passed quite far (like for example with the hand brake tightened) and sometimes it reacts normally. Sometimes he cracks also while braking. Besides, it seems to me that I can pull the hand brake now further than before. Has j demand a competent answer for me??

Which car to buy???
Ho ho, merry X-mas da my old, dented, lame, bad rusty cadet E has now broken the clutch and I don’t think it’s worth it, I decided to buy something new. So far I have taken an Audi 80B3 and an E30 into the narrower selection, i.e. a car up to max 1600 Teuro. Now my question to you, Audi or BMW? I know that the BMW is more designed for sport, the Audi in comparison more on space and driving comf This is actually not so important to me, it’s only important, which would be more worthwhile for a poor apprentice. A big point would be the typical repertures, which car are they cheaper with, which one is more broken? Or can you recommend me a car other than Audi or BMW? As mentioned above, the reperture costs and the susceptibility are important.

Takeover wave and quality, what do you think?
Hi Leuts Over the years, a takeover wave of car manufacturers has taken place. Some examples would be e.g. Ford has swallowed Mazda,Opel and others.VW zb Seat BMW has clawed zb Rover,Fiat has swallowed Ferrari etc… What do you think this takeover wave has caused?Is the reliability of some mares dropped by the takeover?Let people be influenced by this?An example would be MazdaIe always considered reliable, but cut since the Ford takeover. Not as good as in the past years.I took a graphic from another forum, which Ransom has posted in.Is still from the year 2000, but still meaningful. Say your opinion about it… Gruss TegaquartMängelliste JD USA

TÜV for payment ?
hello, my mx3 is supposed to be 02/03 to tuv. it also has nothing bad…too much rust or something, or something else so broken that it would endanger the traffic. my problem: my windshield has a crack in the upper area. nothing that hinders during the ride – only unfortunately a car with such a windshield does not go over tuv! and point 2 would be my sport exhaust of remus. I have no ABE ! and what I can think about is… that there are still problems. by remus auc h no one on my emails. ok – summary – } the disk costs about 600€ !! and a new exhaust also about 400€ so 1000€ for things that I don’t really need! so, now to the actual -> knows maybe one of you who can get me such a Tüv sticker? prerequisite is of course also that this is then also entered in the papers. can anyone help me??? would be super important. thank you! *KiLLaHBaBe*
