I am currently driving a Golf IV Variant, built in 99, 203,000 KM. The good one is so slow to notice the mind or more repairs can occur. If I decide to buy a new car, what would you recommend? I have no preference for any brands (however, the Asian brands say less visually). Important would be: – little repair prone. – Repairs should be affordable. – Cheap in consumption/insurance/tax – Combi, at least as large as the variant, like bigger. Alternatively something towards mini van. My (optical) favorite: Volvo V70 – unfortunately out of budget! Budget: 10-12k Euro I’m looking forward to suggestions.

Mototdamage Astra G z16se
hello, have a problem which I have already posted in the Astras g forum, but need extensive answers to the problem. so before unfurling 6 weeks, I made a service at the Astra g of my sister (parts of steel pit), i.e. oil change, timing belts etc. whole 2 weeks after that, she started the car in the morning which went out again shortly afterwards, , , , ,, cause: the oil pump has got stuck and is broken. I completely repaired the engine and resealed it (oil pump with new oil and filter, cylinder head gasket, oil tank sealed etc.) I then drove 4 weeks by car, and could not detect any problems. 4 days ago my sister drove to Dresden and back, while her engine literally flew around the ears,, having picked up the car yesterday. at the Astra are 2 holes in the engine of one in the oil tank and one in the block,,, a cylinder has said goodbye and has migrated outside, the storage shell from the pleuel is burned. the oil pu mpe has promoted to the last, and all other cylinders are iin ordung. what can have caused this, this thing gives me a rattle. gives opel eventuel kulanz to the motor? vehicle is an astra g with a z16se motor. year of construction 2003. engine has 84ps thanks already in advance. mfg olli.

What do you expect from BMW’s new S 1000 RR…
“Motorcycle” has already tested it with the other super sportsmen and placed it in first place. The machine scores especially in the areas “motor, everyday life” and “costs”. I see for my pleasure that the front has finally been corrected. I feel sorry for all those who bought an old 1000 RR and have glued off a headlight to create the symmetry. Here are two pictures.

Original alternatives to luggage systems?
I have a motorcycle without luggage racks and spacers, and it should stay that way, because I mostly drive around without things. I was traveling, so my Kriega back pocket and my backpack had to pass me. Now I plan a tour, there must be more with. Was with Louis and am just online looking for luggage solutions. Nothing convinced me yet. Either only with additional poles and holders, or too expensive, or too ugly, or everything at once. I don’t want to play the motorcycle driver like in Saigon or Nairobi, but I’d be interested in what alternatives were invented, crafted, bought here in order to go on a serious journey with some luggage.

Engine oil stand, pre-reading function
1st question: With my W221 S320 CDI Bj 4/11 I read in the operating instructions that the oil level in ignition lock position 2 can be retrieved after 5 min with a warm motor. In the display, however, under the point service this line does not appear. What can be the fault? 2. Question : The operating instructions say that there is a point reading function in the control panel in the command. But with me not. Was the special equipment?

Kia Pro Ceed 1.6 CVVT Tuning – need help!
Hi guys, I’m only here today in the forum and wanted to get started right away. I want to buy a new Pro Ceed 1.6 CVVT (since the 2.0 petrol engine was unfortunately set ) and wanted to ask how I can bring the 1.6er to more power. I had not thought about a chip because I am not very convinced of this and it should not be good for the engine. I had rather thought about a turbocharger or something like that… What I think about is also a gebr 2,0l Pro Ceed engine to buy, to fry and then install, so that I have the new 1.6 engine still unbasked. Can someone help me? Does anyone have experience with the engines? Thank you Alex. PS: I once worked on a picture at Paint.NET how I want to make it easier for me…

VW Caddy or Skoda Octavia?
Hello, after a long time back and forth the Skoda Octavia and the VW Caddy are the leftover favorites for my new (up to 2year old) car. Of course, both are quite different, but they offer both space. Once I have listed my advantages and disadvantages, someone will remember: Octavia: Advantages: – better equipment available – looks better Disadvantages: / Caddy: Advantages: -higher sitting position -possibility to camp with it! -practical racks Disadvantages: -something swollen Ammige steering -higher consumption By the way, would like a petrol with DSG. My driving profile: 20%City, 40%Landstraße, 40%Autobahn What do you think?
