Hi, everybody. Sorry for the bad German, I’m still learning. I’m trying to buy a split charge relay in Germany for my campervan, but I don’t know what it’s called in German. It’s what people use to charge AGM batteries from their car battery while driving. Can anyone help me? Thank you Dan Here’s the English only in my German is not understandable Hello everyone. Sorry for the bad german, I am still learning. I am trying to pur case a ‘split charge relay’ in germany for my campervan, but I do not know what it is called in german?

This 17-year-old article (Mercedes Benz w123 as “New Youngtimer”) simply describes exactly the presence of shut-off devices for exhaust cleaning as if it were the most natural of the world: http://www.wurmkat.de/presse/oldtimer/markt/abgastest/abgastest.htm Maybe one or the other finds interesting, shows how ridiculous the “We have all never known anything sst” from KBA etc. is…. Have fun reading the scrap metal fanatic wishes

When refueling, there are people who pull out the pump gun diagonally upwards after the end of the refueling process, although it still drips and then the car infiltrates below the tank opening. Especially with the diesel, unsightly traces are created. Most people probably fill up a little more intelligently: at the end let a little drain, pull out the pump gun only half (so that the pipe is still in the tank end), then move the whole pump gun downwards, s o that the pipe is the highest point and nothing can drop out anymore. (Especially as a man one is familiar with the principle “first shake off” well.) Now I noticed, however, that it is still siffing. The fuel comes from the connection point between the handle of the pump gun and the metal tube. For the first time I noticed this a few years ago, I thought that it would only be at this one pump, but by now it seems at almost all gas stations so z u. The drip-free petrol stations are now in the minority. So you have to put a paper or a cloth under the pipe in addition to the described method. Have you had similar experiences with your petrol stations? Or is it just a coincidence that so many petrol stations are affected here in the region?

Hello people! I noticed at my vehicle (at the front where you put the jack) on the underbody that the underbody protection is loosening. It peels off on both sides on a 5cm2 surface and it rusts a little. Would like to remove and renew the underbody protection at the place with a drill and a round wire brush. How should I treat the rusty places? I personally would have made the place half-blank, then painted with rust converter, then rusted What is the original underbody protection of cars? These are so hard and resistant – is there something to buy? Know underbody protection on rubber and bitumen basis – but these are not as solid as the stuff that is applied in the factory. My questions to you would be: How exactly do I proceed to treat the said places on the underbody? Which underbody protection should I use? h use? Please ask for your comments!

Hi, I’ve already looked for the topic in some forums and found a lot of things. Only the mentioned vehicles are older and would like to know what it is like for newer cars. My Opel Astra K 1.4 150 hp automatic is year 2016. I have also seen a video about the topic in which it is shown that you can accelerate with the cruise control. But is this also good for the engine or other components? The consumption is now put there, but should be better. If the cruise control accelerates. Is this harmful in the long run? If I have saved 70km/h for example and drive on a continuous 70s zone and there is a red traffic light. Then I actually only have to roll and then hit the cruise control and it accelerates to the last stored speed. I happen to happen on the highway and the transmission switches down really far. Is probably wanted because of the ideal efficiency of the engine. Can you still give me a little bit of speed. to say on the topic and make it clear whether this can have harmful effects? Thank you already once and beautiful Sunday still
