  • three technical questions: zv, wash function and ventilation

    Hi all, drive a logan mcv 1,5 dci for four months and I’m happy (apart from the fact that a trottel has rolled into the side and left there an ugly bump…).I have three questions that I would like to get rid of in a wash: 1. Recently I hear a squeaking out of the ventilation, so whether the ventilator is leaning. and the best thing is: it is clearly to be heard at right turns. in left turns not at all and when driving straight ahead actually hardly. a little louder. when the ventilation is off, you don’t hear anything anymore. ask: does anyone know that? or does someone have any idea what that might be? I don’t want to assume that this has anything to do with the small accident, the guy caught the car on the left rear kotflügel and that at a slower speed (reversing to a red light… the depp). 2. the central locking only works with the remote control. as soon as I use the key mechanically, only the driver’s door opens and too. is that normal? 3. the wiper function comes with the wiper water, the wiper wiper does not go on, i.e. I have to pump the water onto the disc and then turn on the wiper again. is that also normal? in the operating instructions this reads differently. thank you for the answers! and best greetings from berlin

  • Contract of sale without KM

    Hello dear community!! I need your help!! I bought a 7 year ago which was financed by the bank!! I have seen the car bought tested!! Of course at a dealer!! Purchase contract signed and the application for financing! But since I was in all of Austria on assembly I had no time to register the car! So the dealer has done all this he has registered the car and had it inspected by the insurance company for the Kasko!!! After 2 days have I picked up the car and he meant to me everything in the glove compartment inside purchase contract financing notice service booklet! Arrived at home I took the black book with me and stowed it away without looking because I thought will fit!! Did the car sell again a few months ago because I had a heavy operation and the car was already too expensive for me! A dealer bought the car and he paid the rest at the bank!!! Now comes the hammer!! The dealer called m I arrived 2 weeks ago and said that the car was manipulated that the speedometer was not right!! Then the spit stayed away from me!! Then I said that we should meet and he should enlighten me! Said done he came by and there it turned out that the 7 over 400,000km had run but he was bought by me at 173,000km!!! So I took all the documents with me and showed him this test report all and from the insurance of the report for the Kasko with 173,000km on it and a m photo of the Tacho!! But we noticed that the then dealer gave me the purchase contract without the KM!!!!! This means purchase contract without KM this field is empty!!!! I don’t know any more tomorrow with the lawyer!! Can you help me further??? Thanks already in advance!!

  • Used BMW 650i F12 Convertible 408PS vs 449PS

    Hello, I’ve been fluctuating for a long time between a used Porsche Panamera and a BMW 6’er. But the initial purchase prices at a Panamera are easily 10,000€ higher (with the same year of construction and mileage output). In addition, higher spare parts prices etc. So I ended up at 6’er again and prefers to be a convertible. For cost reasons I would probably want to take a 640i (320 hp) from Bj 2012 or 2013. But you can also find a a very decent 650i for hardly any more money. Now my question: From the 650i with 408hp I am always strongly advised not to. Many say that one can almost be sure to get an engine damage. The engine is probably mega sensitive. To this one also finds many (negative) contributions in the net. Can someone tell me what it looks like with the 449hp engine? Is actually also the N63? Does the engine have such a reputation?

  • My new, used 640i GT xDrive

    Hello 6er gt Fans, today I picked him up from the used car dealer, my „new” 640i gt xdrive Bj. 2019 in almost complete full equipment, incl. Executive-Drive, IAL, climate 4x, sihz v and rear, heater, drive & Park-Assis all plus. 2019 last year with Executive Drive. M-package. First hand, accident- and repainting-free. Previous owner of a woman with an academic title, probably without racing license A, I start from (hahaha). In the pre-Christmas On Friday evenings, I am so “co-worshiped”, between 50 and 100 km/h on the highway. I only had to gently “touch” the accelerator pedal every few seconds. I had had no one left in front of me for a short moment and the accelerator pedal just pressed a little more and I was already on 140. The car sprints unscathed and completely unspectacular and you don’t notice it and chase away in the truest of the word. My ex-M2 made b a much more Radau action, you noticed that it’s going on now. You had the correlation between acceleration and noise development. Quite different with the 640i, when it accelerates, you don’t even notice. That happened to me once with a 540i on a test drive with the same engine. On the AB I was at 10o km/h in the operation of the infotainment system so much deepened, that I was suddenly and completely unnoticed with “medium” gas giving at 170 km/h. Allowed were 120 kmh, then it had flashed. 1 month driving ban. Further follows Munter stay

  • A new proud Mondeo owner…

    Hello! Today I bought a Ford Mondeo 2.0 Ghia stepback with automatic at the local Hyundai dealer! (see signature). I did a test drive first, and it really impressed me with the car, so I had to buy it immediately The vehicle is first registration February 1997, has run 79600km and is 2nd hand, has checkbook and is very well maintained! I am really impressed by the Mondeo, he drives great, besides, nothing clatters and squeaking! The automatic switches very soft, and the engine is very cultivated! Here I have a few pictures of the Mondeo, were taken directly at the dealer after the test drive, therefore red license plates are mounted. In addition, on the interior pictures the radio is missing, but I have this with me (Ford Radio 5000): Figure 1: http://www.directupload.net/show/d/566/KcgsYF4d.jpg Figure 2: http://www.directupload.net/show/d/566/98SQqvCR.jpg Bi ld 3: http://www.directupload.net/show/d/566/4mDBoN7t.jpg Figure 4: http://www.directupload.net/show/d/566/9yuOTyW6.jpg Figure 5: http://www.directupload.net/show/d/566/iNWEAJ2B.jpg Figure 6: http://www.directupload.net/show/d/566/PlgVL67g.jpg Figure 7: http://www.directupload.net/show/d/566/OJWfLsr.jpg MFG Danny

  • Battery down!

    Hello dear Land Rover fans, I have only been driving my first Range Rover Evogue since August and was so far more than satisfied. But yesterday I was very disappointed by this High-Tec vehicle…because if it could still cook, I would move in, it or get married. I wanted to go to dinner with my wife yesterday. Castle the garage open and I noticed that I had left the light on my range. What was my mistake, of course, I would like to go ahead. of course I tried to start my range again, but of course I didn’t, because he was standing there for almost 24 hours. Now, however, I remembered that the saleswoman told me that there was such a miracle switch in my range, which is called the undervoltage switch. It would cause the range itself to go down when he notices that the battery is going to the end. But unfortunately, he couldn’t do that. I didn’t push my range out of the garage because my automatic switch didn’t move up any more and I couldn’t put it on neutral. And the hand brake didn’t loosen up there either. However, because I’m well equipped, I had a charger that I could then connect to the battery, and so I could still drive with my wife Essen a little bit later. My questions, which I would have: Do you have to use this undervoltage switch somewhere in the Bordco My second question, how can I turn on/turn on the neutral switch when my car doesn’t concern me anymore? My regards Tanja

  • Kind greetings

    Hello everybody, my name is Zlatan and I’m a member of Motor-Talk since today. First of all I want to say that I love how diligently you write about positive and also negative things here. For me this is particularly important because I have been very interested in the Evoque for some time and study all the information about this vehicle from the internet. Of course I already had a test drive and the car has made a very positive impression on me. That’s why I have I also decided to order the car in the second half of the year. Then the car is about 2 years on the market and one hopefully got the children’s diseases under control. What should my look like:MODELL Prestige SD4 with automatic transmission EXCLUSION EQUIPMENT Fuji White, 20-inch Style 7, roof and spoiler in contrast painting – Santorini BlackINNEN EQUIPMENT Spirit – Oxford leather equipment, matt brushed aluminum, roof sky in IvoryOPTIONS Dark tinted discs, Adaptive Xenon HID headlights Ventilation nozzles for rear bench rear seat return camera Winter comfort package (P6) Technology package Dynamic and Prestige (P2) So, for the moment. I will continue to read your posts with pleasure and when he is mine, I will return with pictures and my, hopefully positive experiences. Until then. Friendly greetings, Zlatan

  • Evoque – Rearview camera

    Hello together, who also has this return camera? Is it only with me or there are others with the problem that the warning when inserting the return journey and activation of the return camera is sometimes displayed in English, sometimes in German? I have not yet been able to recognize a logic. Onboard language is set to German.

  • Transfer phone book from BB 9860 to RRE

    Hello, I’ve been a proud owner of an RRE for a few days. As far as everything is possible except for the communication between my Blackberry and the telephone system. The problem is that I can’t transfer the phone book to the vehicle. I’ve already tried everything that came to mind or was advised to do so: – activated automatic transmission of the contact list in the car phone – BB disconnected and recoupled – activated in the BB “transfer all contacts” – contacts over there I have the following firmware and/or devices in the phone or vehicle: – BB 9860 Torch – Firmware 7.1 Bundle 1149 – Premium Navi with 8” touchscreen – Meridian Sound – BT telephone connection The phone connects without any problems, also telephoneing works fine. The last calls with the contact name stored in the phone are also displayed. Would be good idea or – still bess he – a working solution. M.
