  • DS7: Sensorial Drive setting – Save

    Hello Together Is it normal that you cannot save the “Titanium” ambience permanently in the Sensorial Drive menu? I like the red background of Titanium much better than the golden one of the standard At each start I have to manually enter the setting, which is complete nonsense; Has there been an update or is this generally so? Thanks for reply Gruss Manfred

  • NEW WAGEN – Various defects already 4 weeks after handover – Dacia Sandero 1.4 MPI

    Hello community, I stumbled over this forum some time ago and was able to follow the one or other interesting topic. Now I have a little concern myself and hope that some of the other may give me some helpful information or experiences. Since February 10, 2009, i.e. just under four weeks, I am in possession of a “new factory” Dacia Sandero 1.4 MPI. I would like to say that I am proud of my new companion but my initial Euphoria lay already within the first half hour after the transfer of the vehicle. The order and processing of the order alone cost me a few weeks and especially nerves because the “seller” pressed on me did not exactly testify of professional competence. The first two orders had to be cancelled due to a “disposition error” … In addition, I now have a flame red instead of coment grey sandero standing at the door because the said seller n and I finally wanted to spare myself further trouble. =/ Well, a consolation is at least that the above-mentioned seller is no longer working there… RIGHT !!! …he was probably still one of the probation time. Immediately after the handover of the sandero, which took place in the meantime at light dusk, I first drove to the nearest gas station to refuel my new car. While I am standing there I notice a strange leak break near the Tan River. kklappe. At first I thought it might be residues of some preperates that are used in the vehicle preparation. Finally, this turned out to be a small bump the next morning after more detailed examination. -.- Well, I contacted my dealer directly by phone and it was said that I should come by with the car to check the defect first. So two days later I went to clarify the facts. On the way to the I then also found out that the cuff on the shift bag was also constantly loosened. On site at the AH I then directly complained about both defects and pointed out a correction. At the beginning I was informed: “Cuff on the shift bag – YES, bump near the tank flap – NO”. On 20.02.2009 the cuff was replaced and another seller explained after an extensive discussion to let the bump remove what then also happened on 23.02.2009. Now w I was happy and happy about my new car… …at least for the next four days. Because suddenly the engine or the gearbox started to ratter quite loudly. Louder than the first two weeks and above all louder than in the car I was allowed to test before. That with a counter level of about 400 km… o.o. I am unfortunately lay and had no idea what exactly it could be. So on Monday 02.03.2009 again to the AH to have the problem checked. M I was told I would only imagine the ratter or it was all right and it had to be everything the way it is. I pointed out that there was a longer ride and I did not want to risk any engine damage or the like. Quotation: “No, don’t worry about it.” Well, travel to the Sauerland was as planned last week Friday. In order to spare the new engine and to comply with the recommendations in the operating instructions I am quite casual with approx. 120 km/h on the A2. After about 250 km I suddenly notice a jerking in connection with a strong braking effect. So I drove to the rest area and first turned off the engine and waited… After some time I started the ride again and there was nothing unusual to notice. Funny, funny… On the night on Thursday we went back to Berlin. Grad on the A115 drove the same problem as described above. Again stopped moter parked and waited… This time, however, with max. 70 – 80 km/h, if not something the first should be with the engine. At the last 10 KM I could listen to a subliminal roar from time to time, which became louder shortly in front of the front door. The next day, one could now hear a clear roaring & ratters in idle and during the drive to the AH occasionally also quite other not localizable sounds. In addition l In my opinion, the engine is not completely round anymore and the performance has dropped enormously. Of course, it could not be anything first and I got an appointment. -.- So back home and on the occasion just past the gas station to spray the Sandero with the high-pressure cleaner to remove the coarse dirt. High-pressure cleaner therefore to spare the new paint… Is finally the first laundry… Yes, it was clear… the next shock. The paint has changed its colour in a magical way and has become a lot brighter. Especially on the driver side this is clearly visible if you compare it with the front apron… o.O I uploaded a photo as an attachment to it. Anyway, I gave the Sandero earlier to the dealer to have the above mentioned defects as well as some other problems corrected. -.- I was told for all evil that it is normal that the e front apron can deviate from the paint paint. You wouldn’t change it because it’s not a “guarantee case”. I can understand that there can be small variations in the colour nuance but not sooo extreme. And above all the difference on the driver side is far more pronounced than on the rest of the car. Now I would like to hear the opinion of the one or other user here in the forum. Maybe someone has already made similar infarctions and can give me a little bit of a feeling. Especially the thing with the paint paint annoys me enormously because I would have accepted the car so NEVER had the plant or the vehicle preparation not nicely covered the whole.

  • now there are discounts at dacia

    so, I have now obtained 5 offers in the last 4 weeks. and today I received a discount for the first time. (4 x they explained to me that no one can grant me a discount in all of Austria) 2% is not the hammer but better than nothing. feetmatten(no originals) + bandset are also there! so now seems to be something to do here. now dacia becomes even more interesting!

  • My first impression of Sandero

    after working through various fora for the last few days, and with the idea to collect the “wreck premium”, I was at the “Friendly” and drove the Dacia Sandero in the ambiance outlet with 1.6 engine and 87 hp. In addition, a sound package was built in and a few small things like climate and EFH, which I would not need. I was positively surprised by the appearance and the space offered by the hut. fissile dimensions from the outside are ok, from the bottom and in the engine room the thing also looks good. the inside “equipment” would be sufficient for my requirements. in terms of processing I would settle it under my 3 gulf. the seats are ok, alternatively I would install a recaro sports seat to have more side support and seating comfort. the radio wobbles something in the built-in shaft and the haptic of the armature board as well as the rotary switches from the ventilation it is also “favorable” but ok. what disappoints me cht has, is the engine. had expected me of the 1.6L 87 hp more. runs my opinion after worse than my 1.6er 75 hp golf with 150,000km short distance on the clock. also the dacia at travel speed between 100-120 km/h is a lot louder than my golf. I drove several kilometers of city traffic as well as 50 kilometers of federal road and swam along in traffic. what else is not possible with the device from my sight either; if you want to overtake a truck you must already have a z I would consider that the car would be too high if equipped with AHK, but because of the bad driving performance I can not imagine the car with 2-3 seats and, in my case, a motorcycle trailer including motorcycles, without having to drive a traffic barrier. also the 700 euro have transferred me I mean, I’d have read about less here. Too bad.

  • Alfa 156 2.4 Problems of higher speed

    Hi guys, have a little problem. I had my car repaired just 4 days ago. The repair also included a change of the air mass meter! Out of the workshop, everything TOP. Car had again optimal passage because I had missed so. But yesterday I was on the highway and unfortunately had to notice this at full throttle and from 3.000 tours (approx. 135 km/h) the ROTE warning light for the injection lights. As soon as I went off the gas and returned to the area of the 3,000 Tou The car runs normally (but didn’t dare to drive more than 160 km/h), but the warning light lights up. When I tried to take the gas away and then get back into the iron again, at about 150 km/h, the car had no propulsion at all for about 2 seconds and then it started to turn up again! But that happened to me only in the 5th gear. With lower gears I did the same thing again. I didn’t notice yet. I had to try it out today. I didn’t have the problem before swapping the LMM. But I didn’t have enough power for that…. The car is year 98 with about 95,500 km. What could that be?? Thank you for your help.

  • alfa 156 v6 test drive, only problems! totally disappointing

    I wanted to buy an alfa 156 v6. then made a test drive, which could not have been more deterrent. it was a year of construction 98 with 70000 km. the seals were leaking, water dripped into the door. it squeaked while driving on both doors, the back flap and somewhere at the armature board. well, the alpha in the quality is not so special I was aware, but I was at least looking forward to the engine. but also there an absolute disappointment. until 4500 turn around ngen very low-transmittance, over it goes. after 10 km of test drive the engine has jerked wild. think times ignition problems. arrived again in the workshop I was told that the at alfa is normal. if he stands a week penetrates water into the ignition system because he is leaking and that leads to ignition dropouts. when I then asked how it stands with guarantee or guarantee the dealer told me that he would not give a guarantee to an alfa v6 because with the alfa constantly what breaks and that with the v6 the repairs would be too expensive. so sell only as a baser!!! as said bj.98. the brake discs were so warped that when braking almost the steering wheel flew from hand. so I am absolutely deterred. are all alfas so? have bought me now an audio a4 2.4 v6 bj. 98. with 2 years guarantee without problems. the engine goes despite 165 ps to 4500 u/min around worlds better than the alfa engine and also not much worse over it (vmax factory specification alfa 230, au di 228). moreover, it is much more economical (30 valves, 9.4 liters, I lie with very fast driving at 9.5), nothing clatters, fully galvanized and with perfect ergonomics and processing. don’t get me wrong, I’m really not an alpha opponent, in the opposite, but with what I’ve experienced is an audio around worlds better. what do you think about it?
