  • Oil pressure warning Vectra 2.2 DTI to freeway

    Hello all, I have the problem with the oil pressure or flashing of the warning indicator in the idle area, especially after driving the motorway. As soon as I give a bit of gas and the engine has more than 1000 rpm it goes out. The oil level is correct. + Oil pressure switch has already been replaced + the oil pressure control resulted in a pressure at the lower limit (1.5 bar) After driving the motorway the higher oil temperature leads to a further pressure loss, which at Heranfahre n at a traffic light leads to an oil pressure below the lower limit. As far as so good..but there are now several other possibilities which lead to this error. The next schriit will be to remove the oil tank to check the valve for compliance with the minimum pressure, to look at the oil pump, intake snorkel etc. Maybe there is also another tip or if someone had this error, what was it in this case? Thank you in advance!! Jürgen

  • Convert X20XEV to Turbo

    (the thread is already under Calibra but nobody had an idea yet, so I’m just trying it here) Well yesterday evening we talked to some acquaintances in the round and the topic was the following, now that my Cali slowly gets into the old age I want to convert next year to LET-technique called Turbo, and to him a nice retirement as a fun car on which he likes to mature with season marks in peace Now the stone of the wise again lies in the deatail, such a ie pleaded for a Z20LET because is more modern, others in turn a c20let or even as an alternative a turbo kit for an X20XEv ,zb of dybilas which is given there with 260hp…. because yesterday that was the impetus in a sense, a 3er 318is (had actually only 140 ps) Compact on the role experienced the delivered with a Lotec turbo kit now 222hp and 296NM Dremoment , so seems to be quite promising …. however, the BMW Maschi keep even in the “serial state” no modifications to the engine itself, fortunately with such a kit, which drive with approx.0,48bar…. what does this look like at Opel actually? Even more convincing I found then a 325i (actually 193hp) which supplied with compressor kit (also 0.48bar) 306 hp but how is that at Opel, what do you think is promising…… what would you do if…mfg

  • Car up to max. 500 €

    Hello people, at the moment I have financed an Astra J BJ. 2015 but thank God I’m going to get rid of it soon (financing by an acquaintance), I need a new car. Since I’m very short at the moment and I can not afford anything expensive in the near future I’m looking for a car up to 500 €. Here’s a list of requirements/desirations: – purchase price 500 € (max. 500 € for possible replacements or new tyres) – climate or other equipment doesn’t matter – no Automatic – cheap maintenance – cheap spare parts – drive approx. 23,000 km a year so a diesel would be nice, but no need. Sure with the price range – small car or station wagon no matter – AHK would be nice – look no matter, vl not quite gammelled so I bring it through the TÜV – car should hold a TÜV long afterwards comes to the garbage or goes again no matter I hope you have a tip which cars you get for the course and are still mobile. Have also already gess chaut, but with the reliability of the cars I don’t know at all. Greetings DJ

  • What am I looking for ? Budget 8k -10k

    Hello everyone, Now it’s time… since my car gave up the spirit a week ago, I’m looking for a new reliable used car for €8,000 to €10,000 I’ve driven an old Ford Fiesta (GT) year 97 before and was completely satisfied until Dato. But now something more up-to-date has to happen. I’m currently completely overwhelmed and don’t know which direction to go. Maybe you can give me some good tips with justification. rofil is rather unspectacular. I drive about 8.000km – 10,000km a year. Mostly city/village, a little country, some highway (65/20/15). Here are a few key points on which I value : – Reliability – low/normal maintenance costs – Design – some acceleration/flow Now some features that I find very nice, but are not a “must”. – Multifunction steering wheel – hands-free device – Bluetooth – winter package – foldable side mirror – daytime running light, LED day driving light – keyless Go – beautiful storage areas – interior lighting, indirect optically convince me the Golf 7, Seat Leon, Audi A4 and Hyundai i20/i30 very much, but are not possible from the budget. At the moment I drive a Fiesta for rent which very much suits me in the Titanium variant and optically up to the rear. So… now since you turn I would really be very happy about answers and suggestions.

  • Lightweights Wanted

    Moin moin, I’ve seen a heavy-grained CRX, 2nd gene before and Googled out of curiosity what he has for data and was surprised. 150hp and about 1t weight sounds like fun. I thought about that…..what else is there in the direction? Since I’m looking for a new car I can also take some driving pleasure. What do I want to have? -RWD or FWD doesn’t matter, don’t drive in the border area -no iron pig, 1200kg absolute upper limit -92kW is absolute lower limit -4 ,5m length should not be exceeded, parking spaces are with us rather scarce -manual transmission -charging would be great, but what is not -preferred Japanese, if it is not possible -not before 1985, but it should not be too modern (electronics is doof) -no convertible -up to 4000€ What I spontaneously think is the CRX (as mentioned above) Gen 2, Toyota MR2 Gen 2 (yes, weighs more than 1200kg but mid-engine/backwheel drive makes the difference), Corsa C GSI. Who still has ideas.. ..

  • The underrun protection – how much can a life cost?

    Admittedly, martial title of the thread, I’m still putting it to the discussion.https://www.mehrsi.org/pdf/…dem_unterfahrschutz_abliegen_010519.pdf As someone who buys one of the bracelets on every Louis visit and has already willingly donated several larger sums, I find something so angry. When reading the report, I also personally found the imaginary knife in my pocket, so I would be interested in the official word run of the Bundestag – someone ne How do you get there? After a long search I didn’t find it. How do you look? Are you committed to this? Do you like it? Do you speak against it? Fire Free

  • Yamaha MT125 – does not wheel with warm engine

    Hi, I recently hit Weelies with my MT-125. At the beginning of the ride the machine goes up well and I can easily bring it to the tipping point. However, if the engine is longer and I have already driven 20-30min, I try the Weelies again. The problem: the machine hardly comes any more no matter how high I bring the speed. It only goes out of the springs and only a few centimetres high. The acceleration however remains before and after the rides. I have e the feeling that the gas is less packed after a longer journey. Does anyone have similar experience/solution suggestions? Is this perhaps also normal? I would be happy about help. Thank you

  • Short help to buy.

    Evening My girlfriend plans to buy the following Fiat 500 tomorrow https://www.autoscout24.de/…/…6043-c8b9-6e0b-e053-e350040a6202?… . What do you say about the offer. The seller of an older gentleman, made a nice impression on the mobile phone for the first time. Is there anything to consider or especially check out during the test drive? Also regarding the side damage ? Thanks in advance
