Moin moin, engine: Z 10 XEP from 2004. The Gutmann reader always spits out this error. The workshop/screw key lights sporadically. I plugged all the plugs one after the other on the engine height cylinder head to get on which the sensor is. Hang a few pics on it. But the car is running normally. I think it has something to do with the ominous intake manifold. Vllt someone knows more. Come out of the Audi /VW fraction rather like that.

Transmission and braking noise Agila B 1.2 Built 2008
Hello everybody, for 4 weeks I have my little Agila and it is really great. The circuit seems to me however quite angular and often hooks. The gearbox makes noises when I let the clutch come (in the upper area). It sounds as if a wheel continues/turns. On the highway I have a loud, roaring noise when braking from higher speed at the front. When the brake is released it is gone. At lower speeds it does not occur. Can someone write to me If that’s normal with an Opel. Had 12 years Ford and 12 years BMW, this is my first Opel. Maybe it’s typical of Agila and I’m smiled when I go to the workshop with it. I’m grateful for every tip.

Literature G-Class
Hello together, have read with much pleasure the book of Mr. Jörg Sand „Das Neue Grosse Mercedes G-Class-Buch (2011). I thought, I ask you for your current book recommendations, especially on the topic of self-help/screws at the G. The internet pages of Dr. Hans Hehl are legend. Where can you find more, and the matching MB original manual to the G? Thank you for your help. becasse

G 500 EZ 2004 Heat problem? Error ESC and engine control – workshop fails completely!!!!
Hello G-Meinde, last Monday I drive home in the monkey heat and turn off the G as usual, everything normal. 1 hour later I wanted to drive away, does not go. my G in emergency run mode, no more gas and runs quite quietly in the stand gas. display ESC and engine control. So I brought the G to the next MB branch, did not pressure and left people enough time, a week. I gave another tip about the heat!! But the nice people go according to scheme F, yes not 1st step: Do not take gas So change gas control unit (poti). Test, shit didn’t work. 2nd step: Engine runs smoothly but we install an expensive new throttle valve. Test. oh runs again. 3rd step: I can pick up the car and pay €2000. Test. Oh shit. Same error as before. ESC error and engine control. G in emergency run no longer takes gas. The master is almost overturned with embarrassment. I gave in again a tip. The engine room cooks almost. 38° in the shade, in the engine room much more. My tip ESC control unit does not cover heat. Master ponders, yes we have to look up!!! 4. Step: I go back home and leave the G as a test rabbit, but I have written a complaint to MB branch office and threatens if they can’t tell me tomorrow what the trigger of the error is, I will have the car picked up and take it to a specialist company. Oh yes still w As. when I turned on the G he had unfortunately no round run any more like voher but vomited. Conclusion: They have scrapped a healthy 500 he engine. Thanks MB Did you have the same mistake with the heat????? Thank you in advance MfG

Problem with ebay buyers!!! 🙁
Hi, my brother has a little problem. Here’s what happened. He sold a motorcycle at ebay. The buyer came after a few days and wanted to pick it up. He looked at the motorcycle and claimed that the suspension fork was defective. But if the motorcycle were to take with him for half the price. My brother of course did not agree with it. And so he drove home. In the evening he wrote him an e-mail that he was pissed off and that he had a road of 600km. If he wanted to get the fare refunded, then he would go to the lawyer with it. Then my brother wrote him an e-mail that he will not refund the fare and that does not see at all to take over it at all. So, now he has sold the motorcycle to another prospective buyer from ebay. When the new buyer looked at the motorcycle, he noticed nothing of a suspension fork damage. But my brother of course pointed out to him. The buyer probably only wanted to push the price. So, now two weeks are around and my brother gets a letter from the lawyer of the first buyer. He should transfer an amount of approx. 280,- € to the buyer’s account by 12.05, otherwise all this goes to court. Now my brother does not know what to do. He is not covered by legal protection. Of course he will not transfer the money. Because he does not realize that he is still the buyer. e travel expenses should be reimbursed, although the motorcycle was perfectly fine. What would you do now in his place?? Thanks already for the help.

Workshop overburdened – Reference to specialist workshop, cost assumption?
Hello, I’m new here and can’t find anything on the subject, maybe someone knows each other… I’m stuck with my Seat Ibiza, engine went off, nothing went on. I don’t have an ADAC, but an insurance cover letter. Since the next workshop was a free one (should you call here names?), I let myself be dragged there. Defect was the crankshaft sensor. At the pickup the master told me, car is running, just done test drive, but oil and engine light is still on, he doesn’t know w as it is, he would have checked various things, but best, I go to the Seat Fachwerksatt, they would have better, specific selection devices etc. I put myself in the car, want to start – does not start. Master comes, even with him nothing. From there, Seat Werkstatt is contacted, they drag me to themselves and conclusion, KWS is wrongly built into it, also on their account so declared. Who now bears the costs? take into account specialistwerstatt incl. tow 195Euro, invoice free workshop 320Euro, there are however still braking, which were also down… I informed free workshop, one comforted me at the beginning of the week, one will somehow agree, ok, that also gives me time to inform me. I don’t look for a fight, everyone was nice and the master admitted that he is overwhelmed, also does not want to endanger his job, on the other hand I don’t want to pay things 2x, also have nothing to give away. Does someone know each other? Thank you!

Need advice!
Hello, I have the following problem, on 14.12.2010 I parked my car on a game road, at the time there were snowstorms and the signs and roads snowed meters high. On 23.12.2010 I wanted to pick up the vehicle from the place, where I put it off on 14.12.2010. It was just not there anymore! A call to the police if it was towed, did not yield any result, which said that the vehicle with my license plates is not in the list. On 28.02.2011 the police called me and said that they found the car, about 200m from the place where I should have parked it and I must have been wrong at the location ect. To this day the car was at the police to the expertiese (enbruch tracks ect.), did not find anything, so it was clear to them that I was wrong as supposed and simply Maybe too stupid to notice where I’m going to park my car. Today, I get a bill from a private towing company, which implemented my car on 16.12 and I’m supposed to pay 130 euros. I have to pay a considerable amount of money because of this, and I depend on the car for my job. How exactly should I go now. Who is responsible for this? Do towing companies have to report the transfer or towing? Thank you for your help!

Winter tires and summer tires versus all-year tires? What’s clever now?
I live in the flat Lower Saxony. No resin, no mountains. There’s no more real winter, sometimes a few days of snow and smooth, that’s it. Had always winter and summer tires separated, but have bought me now all-year tires, for the front axle of Golf 2. Can you say, or, at today’s mild temperatures, pure winter tires no longer make sense, in the lowlands? You can also neglect the fuel consumption? What do you mean, what do you use whole years? I’m looking forward to your philosophies…in terms of tyre choice. Do you also have to make it dependent on the car? Old car..New car…Delicate drive…Small car… I bought for my old Golf 2, quite cheap all-year tires myself, unfortunately also some that did not perform well in the test;( unfortunately too late read. Hot Kumho Solus Ha 31.. Maybe you can write me something, how you have to see the thing or should. .

Continental TS860 best all-year tire ?
Hello Motor-Talker. More and more people are interested in all-year tyres and buy various products of this range. I always asked myself why Continental does not offer all-year tyres? Then I came across the following article: Tyre test There it says: “Looking at the balance of performance of the two tyres, the Nokian is in fact the better winter tyre, and the Continental the better all season tyre. The results of the Auto Express all season tyre test, due next we ek, will make for interesting reading!” So Continental has a “full-year tire” on offer, which is even better than the test winner according to this test. In short: The TS 860 is better than the test winner Nokian Weatherproof. Which is more a winter tire than a whole-year tire. Greetings Bthight

Screaming sound at electric load
Hello, does anyone know the following phenomenon and can help me? Micra K11 with 40 kW engine, technically completely (?) intact, 100 Tkm mileage. As soon as light or air conditioning are switched on, a spinning to screaming noise comes out of the engine compartment. There are no further impairments, one can drive with it hundreds of kilometers without the noise changes or smells occur. Turn off light – noise is gone (or so quiet that no longer audible?). Light on – G battery, Lima etc. are OK, that’s what an autoelectrician has looked at (Kfz electrician master, self-employed for over forty years, absolute professional!). He has found nothing. The V-belts are in order and really tense. In addition, the following demonstration effect: in the stand you don’t hear the noise and sometimes it doesn’t occur at all! However, when it occurs, it gets louder depending on the speed and becomes extremely annoying when driving on the highway at night. Every time the sound is heard, another phenomenon occurs in parallel: as soon as an electrical consumer is switched on, the radio is running out for a short time. So every time the brakes, flashing, disc lifter operation, etc. What can that be?! Has anyone ever had to do with a similar error? I am grateful for every hint…
