  • Additional warning indicator in the instrument cluster

    Hello, I have here at least a tricky nut for me. On my Sorpio 2.9i Ghia BJ ́90 I have a problem with the locking indicator in the cobi instrument. Unfortunately the display only works with one interior temperature over 40 degrees, as soon as the inner ram cools it shuts off. I have already checked the spreader module of the GlÜ at my other Scorpio, but is not defective. I cleaned and tested the connection at the instrument cluster, also works. I have measured tecker to the instrument cluster with a multimeter. On the buckle signal are 12 V+ on (but not available in the combination), otherwise a maximum of 0.8 V+. No matter whether the doors are open or too. Oh yes, the fuses in the vehicle have already been checked and cleaned, without result (securing box at the front left and glove compartment). Since I have been puzzled since eternal times I hope that something comes up to you. Unfortunately, the search in the forum did not get me any further. Thank you for your help

  • 2004 Mondeo TDCi; failure ESP at 140 km/h

    Hello Ford community, I had a very special experience this morning on the BAB. At 140 km/h there was suddenly a “stroke” from the front axe – as if something was blocking briefly – and at the same time the ESP turned off (display in the amaturating board lit). It also could not be activated again by switch. I am out at the next parking lot and have issued the ignition. After the again let on everything was in order. I then left on the further drive and after the On the way home, ESP was deactivated for safety reasons and drove to the workshop. The fault memory was read out, but without any result. A mechanic completed a test drive on the BAB; everything was fine. Now I wouldn’t have such a big problem with it if the lamp was on the front axle from time to time, but this hit was quite violent and I have no idea what it would have looked like at 210 km/h. t or has any idea what might have blocked there for a moment? Greetings Bullish

  • Keys in the mailbox of the workshop = theft

    Our Avensis T27 2009 Exe was stolen. Keys were thrown into the mailbox of the workshop and the next morning the key with the car was gone. The car is fully cascade insured at the HUK24. Our behavior is grossly negligent. The insurance includes gross negligence, but not in case of theft. What do I have to reckon with? Does the insurance pay nothing? We cut the amount?

  • Fox or not Fox?!?

    Hello, I’m new here with you, Roll Eyes bought a Fox 1.2l last week, SchwarzMagickPearl., Klima, Servo, Radio CD, for 9100 euros. On the speedometer stood 12000 kilometers, first registration is 25.06.2007. I bought the car from the VW dealer as an annual car. The car looked good, engine runs well, inside everything was great from the first impression. So I was happy too, but now I read in various forums that the Fox is the absolute scrap car that constantly any Mac I am now shocked to read about this. My car is now delivered in 5 days and I don’t know if I should be happy now or not?!? can you tell me a little bit about your experience with the reliability of the Fox, and if the car is well processed? thank you Carcosa Huh

  • 2 problems (wipe & display window)

    So I already mentioned in some threads that I have problems with my display windows, a “solution” link but there is not an easier way to stop the squeaking of my display windows? So that was now the smaller problem now to the main problem why I also opened the thread. So I have pure water in my wiper system, yes I hear you already scream, but I filled it up as here were 12°C and I didn’t think about Frost. Well, of course, I’m not thinking about Frost. Efroren, what should Shit Happens. BUT now come on, I tested once if they are really tight, they were, no water came. Press the wiper again, nothing happens, no other setting, rear windscreen wiper nothing, any positions don’t work, but the button for the rear window heater. So now start to tingle what to do!

  • Inspection 30,000 km

    Hello people, wanted to know what you think about it. I have heard the following: Since quality and safety are very important to me in a car, I decided to use a new VW car. It is all the more incomprehensible to me that a single brake disc is oxidized on my vehicle with a first registration from 16.02.2006 and after only 30.712 km. To put it clearly: It is only the brake disc on the left front affected and there is only corrosion at one point. I was told in the workshop and at the quality complaint point that this was a mess! I am a woman and had to be fed off on the grounds that this corrosion has occurred due to a longer standstill of the car, although I announced that my car is moving at least every day more than 50 km. But now my trust in VW is quite scratched. Since this inspection, which cost me almost 500 €, I have the feeling that something with the transmission The car sounds loud. If I push through the clutch at a standstill, the noise is gone, when driving it is there. Now I wanted to go to another neutral workshop. I am very curious about your answers and thank you in advance.

  • Why are used Teslas more expensive than new ones?

    Hi I live in Denmark and would like to buy a Tesla Model 3 SR+ in Deutchland. On Tesla homepage you can buy it from 43,400. I can also see this here https://www.mobile.de/…/das-tesla-model-3-im-test-fahrbericht-13880 I followed mobile.de and autoscout24.de last month and the prices are much higher. See here https://www.autoscout24.de/…/model-3?… I don’t understand. Why does someone want to pay more for a used Tesla than a new one? Tesla kan a new one e car deliver in 1 or 2 months, so it can not be because of the waiting time. Kan someone to explain this to a Dane thanks Gruss Bjarne
