  • GPZ 600 R in the workshop

    Hello, my old sweetheart has just brought to the workshop. To calm down, because I will be on vacation next week. I said at the phone that the carburetors would have to be synchronized. When the engine is warm, it runs great. Did a tour of about 300 km the day before yesterday, was totally enthusiastic. Then thought to me, the tour did the machine well, but today it has started again only laboriously and the extreme flapping and clacking and unround running in the cold condition is still there. The head of the Kawa workshop started my moped and only said: claps but quite nicely… then he has “synchronize carburetors” and “adjust valves” noted. He reports when it is finished or should find something “extraordinary”. Really hope that he doesn’t hit me over the ear, because I didn’t exactly have a good feeling… What does it mean to you: what does the synchronizing of the carbures and valves do? Does the engine seem to be quiet then? Do you have a good idea of it?

  • Dacia Spring1 exchange 12V battery yourself?

    12V battery change itself? Because I just had it from it. Yes, it works itself – it’s nothing else than any other car too. Don’t be stupid to sell, because of e-car and special 12V battery. There is a stink normal leadic acid 12V battery with 50Ah and 430A/EN installed inside. Simply buy a battery with the same values and dimensions A/EN can be even better – there are with 450A/EN- for under 80€ and even cheaper! If someone changes their battery himself he/she/div. should already know how I take no liability for damage to the car and the human being.

With nem Insignia 2022 the difference is not so big but also there. HP 56€ HP + TK 95€ HP + VK 135€ The most convenient thing to do is to buy a new car.

  • Warning for HUK Coburg!

    I have been fully kasko-insurance my vehicle at HUK Coburg Versicherung for years. Of course, the punctual debiting of the contributions always worked without any problems. A few weeks ago I had a stone impact damage on the windshield. A repair was not possible, so that the disc had to be replaced. The replacement was made by my contract workshop, where I had bought my car again and since then all the maintenance and repairs had been carried out. From the repair costs I paid the excess of 150 EUR and transferred the remaining amount to the car dealership, which then turned to the HUK Coburg to pay this remaining amount. So far a normal process, so that I assumed that the case had been settled. A few weeks later I received a letter from the HUK Coburg, in which I was informed that the repair costs incurred in my workshop were the average costs for the repair. In my research, this company is not a neutral expert office, but a company which, on behalf of the HUK Coburg, makes these reductions arbitrarily on the basis of so-called computer databases and for this service from the HUK Coburg commissions on the basis of the In the event of a damage, I can have my vehicle repaired in a workshop of my choice. After further research, this procedure is a “mash” of some insurance companies (e.g. the HUK Coburg) to arbitrarily reduce the costs of the damage regulation, as many policyholders do so – from There are many judgments in which this behaviour of the insurance companies was judged as legally inadmissible and unfounded and was therefore accepted by the corresponding claims of the policyholders. I myself have asked the HUK Coburg to transfer the reduced amount in the amount of approx. 200 EUR, which I had to transfer to my workshop in addition to the excess contribution. Should this not be within the I will, of course, immediately order my lawyer to sue the HUK Coburg. My workshop, by the way, has informed me that the shortening of the invoice is not justified and that it has not yet experienced such a procedure in any other insurance company. Of course, I will terminate the car insurance at HUK Coburg, because I do not want to see the difficulties that this insurance company will encounter in the event of an accident. I hope that I have made it sufficiently clear what difficulties current and future customers of this insurance company have to expect in the event of damage. Because the often found positive assessments of the HUK Coburg refer regularly only to the amount of insurance premiums, which are in fact often cheaper than with the competition. This is the case for a customer who only gets into trouble to enforce his rights and may even have to go to court.

  • Witness in case of accident – Insurance of the causer requires statement

    Hello everybody, I’m a bit stunned, I witnessed a damage in February. The insurance company of the causer has now sent me an e-mail and asks me for a statement, or whether I can rule out that the damaged vehicle has rolled back or reset. My testimony is documented by the police. What do you think of this? Greetings Carsten

  • OT: Insurance premiums depend on first name 🙂

    https://www.chip.de/…/…hr-fuer-die-Kfz-Versicherung_185352243.html Maybe someone will recognize himself. copy + paste: A recent study shows that people with certain first names pay more than others for car insurance. Men with the first names Uwe, Bernd, Jürgen and Jörg pay considerably less for their car insurance than men with the first names Patrick, David, Tobias and Daniel. And that, although all the same vehicle types are driving – in relation to M There are no differences between arke, PS and year of construction. Women also have a similar picture. Names such as Petra, Karin, Gabriele and Martina are associated with lower insurance premiums, while Jessica, Sarah, Jennifer and Nicole have to pay significantly more. Particularly striking: A woman named Jessica pays on average twice as much as a man named Uwe, although they both drive the same cars.
