  • Problems with GPZ 500s !

    Hi guys, I have a problem with my GPZ 500s year 90. And it sometimes doesn’t start up and this usually in the morning. The battery can’t be, it’s new. The starter also goes crazy. Unfortunately, I don’t know what it might be. Can it be that something gets wet? Since it usually doesn’t start in the morning and that’s always when it was a little frosty or damp. Thanks for your help.

  • Engine does not start after ESP repair

    I removed the ESP of my 230er Ducato and brought it to the Bosch service to repair. The background was that the pump was leaking strongly on the gas lever, Diesel was already running out. New seals, sockets and a new lifting disc were installed, as it probably already had inlet tracks. So the pump was installed again and nothing happens! The thing doesn’t make a mux at all. Lines have been vented to x-ten times and almost 2 batteries are unarranged. But diesel arrives at the injection nozzles. Where can the error now lie? Can it be that the pump wheel is twisted by 1 revolution? Or is the pump back in output position after 1 complete revolution and it doesn’t matter how often you turn it as long as the locking of the thorn fits? Can it be that the lifting disc has been twisted by 180 degrees? Would the Bosch service have had to notice this on the test bench?

  • More space needed – VW T5 Multivan or VW Sharan or Seat Alhambra

    Hello! We expect our third child in autumn and probably need a bigger car. As a rule we will be on the road as follows: – 2 adults – 3 children (1x Maxi Cosi and two child seats for 8 year old twins) – dog with box (approx. 80x60x60) – pram for the baby Currently we drive a Seat Altea XL which should become too small. At the T5 Multivan there should be no problems from the place. He would be my favorite, only the woman is not quite sure if they can cope with it. As an alternative, a Sharan or Alhambra would be possible. In principle, I don’t want to let the three kids sit side by side in the second row, this will simply be too loud and with the Maxi Cosi in the middle certainly not easy to strap on. Therefore, I would like to release in the middle and put one of the two twins in the third row (like them also good). Only then the space in the trunk is sufficient for dog box and prams if necessary. a small purchase? Maybe one or the other of you has a similar process behind it. I would be very happy about help! Oh yes, budget is so at 25-30K. Best regards Christian

  • Which model/year of construction at BMW E9x or E6x is recommended?

    Hello, my 17-year-old 3s compact doesn’t really want to do that anymore and I need replacement. Would now like to buy a touring with “normal” motorization and pick up between 10,000 to max. 15,000 euros. I don’t want more than 125,000 km and from year 2009, so as a guideline. Since the price difference, at least when buying, is not so big anymore, I have already looked there. Since my 3s compact is a model (was) what reliability, Reperatu I also have a few detailed questions;-) I have seen a lot less because of the start-stop-automatics. I have seen a lot less. Is that reindeer, or is it quite vulnerable? Oh yes and then of course the eternal question: Diesel or petroler ? Drive between 10,000 and 15,000 km, so you usually say petroler. If you look at the maintenance costs, but don’t give yourself that. so much. Gasoline needs more money for fuel, insurance, tax is cheaper, the diesel is vice versa. And diesel is more often found on the market at BMW. So now I’m through with my questions and look forward to your information and experiences.

  • Hard to drive, or OT laber!?

    A today’s car, with PNRD (1,2,…) gearbox, if you give the gas and drive constantly fast on the highway, the car also switches into the higher gears and you have to give little gas. If an E. car has no gearbox and you want to drive 10 hours at 130 km/h, is it not very exhausting for the body you have to step through the gas constantly???

  • Now the problems start… sight test…

    Hi, was yesterday with an optician and did a visual test. Result AWARDS on the right eye it is almost 100% but on the left only limp 15% and that with visual aid… But that’s not the problem, because I still know of my car license, which I then need an ophthalmologist’s report. Now I’m afraid that my ophthalmologist says that I never get a motorcycle driver’s license… It makes me crazy. What do you mean?? MfG.: Matze
