  • Consumption A 2 TDI 75PS

    Hello *, recently added me a used A2 TDI 75hp, EZ 01/2003, 25tkm. Is equipped with some weighty things (open sky, leather, Bose, 17″ etc.). Although it had expected that the consumption is not at 4.4l (prospekt) but after 2 times refueling with mixed operation (approx. 20%city, 30%country, 50%ab) a consumption of 6.3 liters. Isn’t something wrong?! What are your practical experiences?

  • Production stoppage A2 2005/2006

  • Purchase in 2002 or 2003 V 70 D5

    Hi, just now I put the rented XC 70 D5 back on the yard, with my future dealer. As to be expected, the car very excited me. The return trip in the passat was very sobering afterwards. Why I did not drive a V 70 test is due to the fact that I wanted to have a vehicle with Xenon, d5 , Autom. and RTI. Now my Volvo dealer asked me to do the order this year because next year everything will be different. What do you say? On 01.04.03 my old leasing contract expires. Greetings, Tex

  • Is that impressive?

    Hello, it’s been a few days, but in the AMS 3 there was a crash test Polo vs. Phaeton. I found the results more than impressive. I sit in a small car (good, it corresponds to the Golf II), ride with 50km/h in the opposite traffic coming to me and rattle with only half a cover with a Phaeton (which almost doubles) together. After that I get out – if it has gone badly with a few scratches, burns from the Pyros u and headaches – and may I hear from the completely untouched Phaeton driver, why I beguiled his car? How far is this development actually, if after the crash at Phaeton I can close the door again like after parking and the insects have been just a little shaken? Probably everyone can still remember the crash test of the blow of a GolfII, where one had to be afraid that one is not caught. How do you see the development at C Rashtests? Greetings Stefan

  • Charging cards for e-tron vehicles

    Quotation: I now have 4 charging cards and 3 charging apps, with the delivery comes then still the e-tron Charging service. I should then have covered all providers 😉 Which cards and apps do you have in total? Problematically I find that many of them have a basic fee – thanks for the info!

  • E-tron (RS) GT Happy drivers Thread

    Hello friends, in the fault thread (which for example does not exist for the I4 M50 …) I have already written that I am currently interested in the E-Tron GT, but that the defect reports deter me a little – which seems to be not the only one, as the study of the described thread shows. A writer mentioned that there are of course especially those who have problems with / defects on their car – which is certainly a well-founded objection. e me: “Then let’s open a thread in which everyone can talk about their positive experiences and the fun with the car in order to create a counterweight!” Et voila, there he is 🙂 So I (and other interested ones certainly also) look forward to your experiences, how much fun the car can be and that there are also a large number of (nearly) fault-free copies. BG, Martin

  • Help! Does my C1 II have no secondary air pump?

    Hello guys, it’s me again. My car makes buzzing noises at the start of the cold. The workshop read out the error and said that the cat is defective… A nice member gave me the tip to check the secondary air pump or replace it. Bloss now comes my problem – where can I find it? I have already looked for pictures on the internet to search for them in the engine room. Without success. Can you tell me where to find them and if the Citroen C1 a such pump at all? C1 II 1.2 vti 82PS BJ. 10/2015 Driving performance: 124,000Km Best regards

  • Water in the trunk

    Good day together, The C1 of a friend (Bj 2009) is the third car (including mine) of this type, which I know, in which it is always wet in the trunk. Newspapers, which are designed to help with drying, are after a short time (depending on the weather) through and through wet. Sometimes the water is finger-high in the spare tire compartment. With me it is not quite so bad, but something in the trunk also can not be done with me. At the seal of the trunk window are no mistakes to fin Unfortunately, you can’t see where the water comes in. As I know this state of several C1, it is obvious that there is a general problem (constructional error) that is the cause. Does anyone know this problem? Does anyone have a tip on where the water might come from? Thank you!

  • Economic TTS – WBW related to equipment

    Good morning. In the event of an accident that I did not blame, fortunately without personal damage, my old lady was probably damaged so badly that it amounts to an economic total damage. Pictures were taken, the insurances are in contact, the report is in work and a MW was promised to me by the opposing insurance already via EC. Now I have some questions, which I can answer partly already a.G. the logic itself, however how does it look in reality a us *smile* Data on Lady Bschädemungen (Ersteinauswert) Now my questions …

  • power loss, question to the profis 🙂

    I was on the performance test bench of evotech last year, which measured 3 times, I could hardly believe the result. a standard performance of 278 ps was measured at that time, although the car should have 350-380 ps with the whole tuning crams. (according to previous owners and geiger) these 278 ps correspond approximately to the serial performance. tuning includes, cylinder head machining, sharp nock, f awning curved geiger c1 , powerchip geiger c1 and the bora exhaust system. besides, rim suspension brakes were changed which is important in this case net. the car has automatic, the performance diagram of the automatic test was a standard power of 241 ps. when manually switched up then it was the 278 ps. what can cause this power failure? was then at geiger, who said everything was ok. but that can’t be at all, they probably don’t know their own car… actually come I can hardly get faster than 240, o on 100 are about 6 sec. with manual power up. both have to be better, especially the end speed. no matter where I was, no one has ever really been able to help me so far and now it’s soon april, then I want to get it right again. I’m just not a screwdriver or mechanic, I don’t know myself great about what these things are about. I have the 2 power diagram here e attached, that with automatic, the other than by hand from 1 in 2 in 3 then turned up in 4 the image best magnify…hope it is what is recognizable
