  • Kia Rio missing a screw?

    Hello Kia Rio driver, my sonman got a new Kia Rio, now there are 400 kilometers on it and we wanted to refill the windscreen wiper liquid. I noticed a screw opening on the engine block. It looks like a screw would be missing. In any case there is a thread in it. Maybe the man on the assembly line was not in shape and did not tighten the screw properly? And the screw was lost by vibration? Or that’s what it belongs to? I would like to save my way to the workshop. Please see photo, red circle, there is the hole. It is left next to the oil measuring rod. Model 1.2 Gasoline Thanks Greeting from Richard

  • Ranger or Amarok

    I am currently looking for a pick. Should serve as a daily car for me and at the weekend for wooding in the forest with trailer. I pushed the Ranger XLT Lim. for around the 23500euro as a daily registration with 20km. An Amarok with equivalent equipment costs approx. 33500euro. Will the car with a rest rate finish on 48mon. Therefore the rates for Ranger and Amarok do not take as much as there is with Amarok the residual value is higher. Offer for Amarok are 293euro x48mon + 500 0euro down payment. I don’t know what it looks like with the Ford yet. Wants to become a dealer tomorrow. What do you mean by .. basically the ranger should be more than sufficient.

  • severe power loss after motorway

    Hello dear Ford drivers and those who have the clue, so I have a huge big problem so I drove the last highway and can barely drive to 140 kmh with my Ford Escort Bj 97 16V 1.6 90Ps already very weak my old same machine managed 200 kmh. Well, that’s not the main problem so I drove as said 140 kmh at naja think so 4-5 thousand turn around it knows but not more exactly and at once it jerked and the car despite more gas was always given langsa mer up to 80 kmh on the highway so I in 4 and to the next parking lot, and achso Temp. anzeige was at the middle of the normal area. Well thought to me wait a half hour then goes again well waited wanted to start again there kahm the car even not from the kink even so dolle that I had to drive return value back to the parking lot. Well at some point then I took the whole parking lot to start and then tucking on the highway. Well and jetze it goes again something better but it is in any case only the half to about three-quarters of the power available. Behavior Motor Brummt pulls loudly, the speed is actually available but car does not accelerate. no matter how much you push the gas pedal through. Jetz ask what can this be and can I maybe do something myself to fix it. Will jetze so say tomorrow the air filter out if it’s because of it but that’s what I think makes it even more important if he’s stuffed. Thank you very much.

  • Break down the front bumper (Ford Escort Style Combi)

  • Achsmanchetten / drive shafts installed ?

    Moin, my axle cuffs (drive shafts) lubricate badly, although I could not detect any cracks in the cuff myself (it’s completely completely lubricated) I would get me a few drive shafts and install it now Can you do it yourself? (think already) What do you bracuht to do with it? Is a jack enough ? How long will they probably still hold ? or is a set of joints (ebay ^^ there are the) noises when driving not available, neither clacking nor knocking or anything, except a snoring when driving in a driveway (bordstone, etc.).

  • Can I decipher this connection plan?

    Moin, since no one replies to my DZM thread I have built it in and sometimes the connection plan knippst vll. can help me there tried to get the speed signal at the back of the speedometer however is there on Pin 10 a green-white cable that has contact to the oil lamp of therefore … picture is again a bit big at Opera (which I use) you can set the zoom level to 50 then looks good ^^ or download EDIT : a = green b = black c = red then there is again extra red, black and orange so 6 cables where orange comes to light (see plan)

  • Click when using driving beam

    N’Evening, I have needed the main light over the evening over several times. There was a click every now and then to hear that after a first hearing impression comes from the range tacho. Sometimes you also hear a nasty noise, which sounds the same as if you were “on tip” a light switch of a lamp or the ceiling lighting in the house/apartment, i.e. you don’t completely flip the switch, but only so that the light starts to flicker. When it clicks, the Helli changes. When the “fiese sound” occurs, the light flickers very quickly (just like when you do it as described above).What can it be? A relay? I’ve already looked at this list. Is there any other relays besides the high-light relay that have something to do with the light? I can rule out that the steering pole lever does not properly snap into the position “remote light”. Greeting, Kirli

  • New topic

    Hello together, we bought a 2016 Mini Cooper S JCW conversion at Mini at the end of February. The Mini runs really wonderful, he has only one problem with the RDKS. Due to the Corona crisis our complaint is now for almost 2 months. He had always lost sneaking air at the front left, went after about a week from 2.7 to 1.9 bar and accordingly always came the error message. The friendly one then changed even 2 tires in front but somehow the display is with the time It’s always different. Just under 14 days ago you get 2.7 and 2.5 filled in in the front and now it’s 2.5 and 2.3 and 2.2 and 2.4 respectively at the start. Is it always so different for you? Do you know it from my VW so that it shows a maximum of 0.1 bar difference and is even the same for everyone during the ride. With the Mini it was never the same. Greetings Patrik

  • Mini F56 starts badly

    Hello, I already told him another post about my mother’s mini. He makes cracking noises at the cold start.(Probably heat protection sheet) A few days ago, however, started to make a very tinned noise at the cold start. How he would have a short oil shortage. (See appendix) Today started and went out directly again. On the second attempt he then jumped and then turned up the speed to approx. 1400…about 5 seconds later, however, this is then to 900 and then the speed went up and down. The clacking noise was there all the time. When trying to drive a piece forward. He immediately ran out. Again he started and he did exactly the same. Then I let him run and turn it off. After about 10 minutes we started him again to drive up and down the road once again. But he then started to stutter…how he would not get a fuel for a short time… I’m really stunned what that could be …. Did someone have an idea? e ? PS: I read out the bug memory recently…it was written in it that after the injection was released the pressure was too low…

  • Travel costs cover health insurance ?

Do the cash register have to pay the travel costs for outpatient treatment (physiotherapy)? Thank you for informations Greeting Markus
