  • Brakes at the Lupo

    Hello dear Lupo driver, for about 2 months my friend is proud owner of a Lupo new car 1.4 – 60 hp. In general she is very happy with the car. Since she drives the Lupo she complains about the braking performance of the vehicle. Today I drove the vehicle myself once to the test and was shocked at how bad this small car braked. I am perhaps spoiled by my Volvo something about the braking performance of this vehicle a is that normal with the Lupo? P.S. the Lupo has meanwhile travelled 1500 km. Greeting from HH Willy

  • Lupo with taste

    Hello everyone, as an old OPEL driver I went foreign last June. I drove a 1.4 Lupo and was thrilled by the small box. Unfortunately, the 75 HP but had a Sanella suspension, buttery soft so that I almost put it on the side in the first brisk curve. But since then I like the Lupo and maybe want to buy one. I think about 75 HP up there. Would like to have some different tips about the box. Like e.g. maintenance, workshop frequency, consumption h. Of course I would prefer the 100 HP Lupo or the GTI, which is beyond good and financial. So, guys, say something about the 1.4 HP Lupo and give me tips on how to get to the Wolf Club. Thanks already in advance.

  • 12V starter battery charging at eHybrid

    Hello together, Can someone tell me how to charge the 12v battery at the ehybrid? We have a charger ourselves and I don’t want to drive into the workshop. In the instructions you can only drive to the workshop. The battery is in the trunk, now the question is whether I can just connect it there, or about any points in the engine compartment? Does anyone know that?

  • In the event of an accident: request medical attention or not?

    In a narrow winding valley in southern Germany I was overtaken by a fast motorcycle group with the PW. Because one of the motorists drove frontally into a rock wall, I caught up with it again after a few minutes. At my discretion, the movement of the injured motorad driver was disturbed. Since in the valley no mobile phone reception was possible, I offered to drive out of the valley and request an ambulance. The motorcycle colleagues vehemently rejected this and did not do any institutions the same. The next day I read in the newspaper that the motorcyclist was still dead at the scene of the accident, which kept me thinking for a long time. Last month I was accidented on foot in Germany myself and there was suspicion of skull and spine injury. The ambulance was immediately requested by third parties without question. I was then informed about this. rt. The investigation by the paramedics showed that although I was injured, I did not need any transport to the hospital, but only a surveillance of the condition by another person for 24 hours and the further transport by a taxi. What about the costs of the paramedics? I was told that a justified requirement of the paramedics without subsequent transport in Germany was free of charge. (Whether this is always so, I did not check.)This would mean that there is no need for a medical examination. allow for cost reasons to delay or forego the provision of medical equipment.

  • Motorcycle Stolen Experiences

    Hello together, with this post I once wanted to share my experiences “What happens when my motorcycle is stolen”. What happened? I bought my Duke at the end of August 2023 and had it in full insurance. I drove with the Duke 1700Km until I put it on 22.11 on my parking space in front of the front door (1,5m-2m away in front of the window of the neighbor). On 23.11 around 10 am I looked out of the window and fixed that only the cover plan is on the parking space. I bi n ran down immediately and thought it was just a bad joke… Unfortunately I had to find out quickly that it was not a joke.. below I found the bolt for the steering wheel lock. About 100m further along the road I found other parts of the motorcycle (Zündschloss cover, contents of my bag etc.) Immediately I called the police who then took up everything, created a theft notice and the motorcycle wrote out for search. As d After about a week I registered the motorcycle, sent keys and papers to the insurance company. I assumed that the duke was cut into pieces and sold. On 24.12 I received a call from the police: My motorcycle was found again 20km from me, I drove there, motorcycle was standing in a public parking lot with two foreign helmets and it was allowed to start without a key… – The duke had knap pe 2100Km now on it – the tank was broken open – scratches on the exhaust – chain/cracker rusted – full with dirt and mud I had to tow it at my own expense (47€ off) but was paid by the insurance company and brought into the garage, and the insurance information. After the holidays the insurance company sent an expert, this treasures the repair costs at about 2000€ on it I have noted that the cracker/chain are rusted the My Duke is now being repaired in the next few weeks and I have the Duke again with me. I wonder what motivation people have to steal a motorcycle to drive something and then just turn it off??? I would understand more if it is sold wrongly to get profit.. but like this?

  • Motorbike driving bans Noise level

    On the occasion of the recently planned regional driving bans for vehicles with a standing noise of over 90db and the closed petition thread (why in a discussion forum the discussion of topic-relevant things is stopped, unfortunately, withdraws my knowledge) I still have a question of understanding. Why is a measured standing noise taken as the basis for a driving ban. Shouldn’t one rather make a driving noise measurement? Apart from that, I as a driver have the noises In this way, my motorcycle can also move in the right hand with respect to the residents. Between times when driving, other things also have an influence on the noise levels perceived by outsiders, such as topography, construction, personal noise perception of the affected persons, etc.

  • Bye, good-bye!

    Hello together! Since my account will be deleted with the transition to the new owner, I would like to take the opportunity and thank you for the many and nice discussion, which would have been even more beautiful without moderation. MT in itself and the BT were for me however anyway never a place for meaningful discussion, for that there are better possibilities, but it was a nice playground! Anyway, as a farewell gift we have left fifteen thousand times thanks, because with so many Beit The thank you button for a “helpful” post was triggered, as we also felt it was helpful. Don’t be annoyed, the moderators can’t do it better! Bye Demogantis

  • 125′ and more now with Class B according to 3rd Directive, from 1.1. 2007???

    Hello, you have been alerted to the 3rd directive of the EU driving licence law (new regulation nr. 3.x) which is now published and that I could almost have given myself the A, exam in 2 weeks, because class B should now be included in classes A1, A2, b1, c1, d1. So no unnecessary discussion burns here the link from the EU: driving licence regulation 3rd level , Article 6.2 (f) read. If I read the right A2 would be included and thus even driving with me hr ccm and PS possible without A note. If I have read correctly, does this apply from now on to various restrictions? Article 18, Entry into force says that as I understand it.
