  • Parking Assistant Professional

    Hello guys, I have a question about the parking assistant professional. If I see it right, this one can repeat a parking maneuver that I saved. Startable via Mini app. Since our garage is quite tight it would be much easier for me to get out in the driveway and leave that in to the car. Now the gate entrance is much tighter than the garage itself. That’s where it depends on every centimeter. Therefore, my question is how precise is the assistant? Does he manage that? He really needs to follow what I have saved relatively centimeters exactly. Currently I don’t really dare to try it. Thank you in advance. LG Alex

  • Mazda ́s success result 2016

    At the moment there is not much going on here in the Mazda Forum. 2016 was again a success year for Mazda, especially because of the majority of private buyers. I therefore set up the current news as an investment, which has appeared today. The balance sheet is definitely interesting.

  • Four C Yes or no

    Since the V60 here in Germany no comfort chassis is offered, I think about ordering a Four C with. My question: Is the surcharge for Four C really worth it? We can watch out for the sport or advance mode. I’m just talking about the comfort mode compared to the series chassis. Are potholes, gulli lids, poorly tarted roads better put away from the chassis and kept away from the occupants? Or is the difference only marginal and I save my money better…. Andreas

After 5 years D5 times a petroler – I am curious like a flint sheet. Pictures are immediately after appearance and a complete report if I have taken it extensively. Since the T3 is not quite as strong represented will surely be one or the other about my experiences.

  • Personal safety: XC60 / V70 / Passat

    Hello together, after which I had to see again a serious accident on the A1 a few days ago, I ask myself a question which I can not really answer by using the usual auto test pages (yes, the XC60 reached the maximum score at the ADAC). Are people in an SUV alla XC60 not better protected perse than drivers in a V70 / Passat? Shouldn’t the acting forces “distribute” themselves better in an accident in an SUV? I hope the question is not all too ridiculous.

  • Speed-dependency. Steering with touring suspension useful?

    Hello, I’m still configuring… Have I decided for the XC60 D5 Ocean Race in silver. Now the question arises, does it need the speed-dependent servo, if I decide for the touring suspension? karliba Thank you for the postings to the leather, the alternative to the Ocean Race would have been a summum black with leather sandstone beige, anthracite. I have seen three about 2-3 years old XC60 and then finally decided for the Ocean Race.

  • Water Intrusion Dashboard

    Hello, I just came from a longer highway ride in the rain, and my C70 has unfortunately become slightly leaky. In right-hand curves and when the ventilation is turned on, water drips from a rectangular section at the bottom of the dashboard on the left foot of the passenger. It’s not cooling water, but rain water: cold, clear, and odourless. It’s also not a large amount, but a rind. Before the descent, the car stood outside for about 2 weeks, and I didn’t notice any moisture in the interior. In addition, the ventilation in curves sometimes makes light running noises, but it has been doing that for longer – whether this has something to do with it? With two shabby photos: the wet foot mat and the point on which it drips as well as the bottom of the dashboard with the relevant opening. Is this a known problem? Where are the processes, e.g. from the sliding roof?

  • ABS error 314

    With my 96 TDI I get the ABS error 314 sporadically (ink right wheel sensor signal). The ABS control unit was soldered 3 years ago, so I would almost exclude it as a source of error. 1) With cold soldering point at the control unit came as far as I remember a whole latte of errors. Or can a single error also indicate a defective control unit? 2) What can one check on the sensor at all? Can it also be dirt? As I read, the exchange of this sensor is not quite as easy. The tank must probably be drained.

  • Brake no longer dissolves…

    Hi friends of the cared for ABS, I have a Volvo V70, built in 1998 AWD automatic 2.4 with now 262000km. Well, it’s time to get rid of the brake bar? Well, the brake bar can’t get rid of the brake bar? Currently it’s TÜV and everything is already prepared and repaired. Now I drive to the TÜV yesterday and notice that someone is braking without my help. I had the too fixed hand brake in suspicion. Again, the thermometer has shown 180° on the brake disc. Wheel removed after cooling: the most hot part was the brake block. had still 62°, where the disc now had 56°. The brake disc did not turn! Did then the brake brake has pulled apart something, so that the disc was again blocked. Now the following: Have started the car, parking mode, hand brake attracted, since the disc was still turning (until the first stop has turned).

  • Subwoofer in C70

    Hello municipality, I have a C70 convertible and want to retrofit the subwoofers in the backrest of the rear bench. They are equipped with Dolby surround series. Apart from the heavy price of the Dynaudio chassis, I would like to know if the subs can be easily connected to the final stage of the series. Supposedly it is an optically simple Alpine V12 where the outputs are intended for the subwoofers. Does anyone have experience with it? Or another idea? Thank you Borsti
