  • How do I connect my shark v9 amplifier?????

    HI, I know that there are several entries on the subject, but somehow none of them have become smart. So far I have come: power cable from the battery to the amplifier. – Cable connected to the body. Sub and 2 speakers connected to the amplifier chinch cable and remote cable from the radio to the amplifier closed. My problem is: I have juice on the thing, but the sub and the speakers don’t give any sound of themselves!!!! Is 3 channel have a over on my amplifier 4 inputs for my chinch cable. 2 for rear input and 2 for front input. but have only 2 plugs on my chinch cable. Is my problem because I need n`other chinch cable, or did I forget anything else??? I don’t know any more, am grateful for every answer!!!

  • Laguna II 1.9 DCi – P1125 Charge pressure solenoid valve quantity too large

    Hello to everyone, I hope I’m right here and someone has already solved this problem. Half a year ago I bought the Laguna II. After a month the turbocharger gave up (injection error lamp lit). Mechanic then found that the AGR was also plugged off. (Probably to get more power?) Then I had the complete Turbo and the AGR replaced. After exchange everything worked out wonderfully. On the way home from the I then drove about 160 km/h on holiday and once again an error message jumps up (injection system lamp). Then I got away from the gas and see the lamp goes out. When I was back the error message went again and again. So in every speed range. Error memory returned: P1125 charge pressure solenoid valve quantity too large. I then changed the charge pressure solenoid valve (which hangs on the left top). Then I actually got the error message only in the lower speed range. So we When the engine is cold, 1/4 gas is enough. Next I changed the charging pressure sensor. Unfortunately, the same thing again. I really don’t know any more. With the mechanic I drove the test and he connected his device. We found out when you accelerated and then let go of the gas the charge pressure deviation jumps briefly to approx. 6000 kPA and then to a 1-digit value. Sincerely.

  • Engine change MK6/Suspension points

    Hello dear forum community. Currently I have in my Escort the 1.4 liter engine with 52 kW, year of construction 94 is the car. I thought, if at some point should start to make mucken (* knocking on wood*), possibly to replace the engine. That in principle also gearboxes, toads and brakes should be exchanged (if I take a stronger engine), is clear. That it can be depending on the economic aspect, I also know. It would be partly just the fun a m screws involved, and for that I would also whistle accordingly on the point “financially meaningful”. What interests me mainly: Are the suspension points between the engine variants identical?

  • Practitioner Highstar 5W40

    Hello, soon wanted to make an oil change at my ABT (about 110tkm down) again. Otherwise I used to drive 10 W 40 or 15 W 40, but in view of the favorable price of the highstar oil in the practitioner I wanted to test it. Now I only have the fear that the soup could squeeze out after the change, possibly at the one or other engine seal, because I previously drove thicker oil. I have read this before, or is it a fairy tale? I had lost oil. none at all. Is there any opinions there? Greetings

  • Joint shaft-Which manufacturer/what effort?

    Hello! It took a long time, but it’s time for a change of the drive shafts. A few questions: 1. Which manufacturer can you recommend? (original parts are too expensive for me) 2. When is it advisable to change the shaft completely and not only, if possible, the joint set? 3. How expensive is the change. Is it advisable to do it yourself as a trained mechanic? 4. The prices for ebay parts are again underground favorable. This probably also applies to d he quality, right? Thanks for your tips! Frank!

  • RAV4 grim theme Run Flat and winter bikes

    Toyota is ridiculing itself this winter. You don’t have to discuss the for and again the grim topic of their Run Flat system at RAV4, but that they are not even able to deliver winter bikes for it now, shoots the bird off somewhere. After I was told by 2 dealers that the Toyota this year did not offer winter bikes in the standard tire size for my car, I got the following mail today from Toyota Germany: Quote:Good day Mr. XXXX, thank you for Your e-mail. Referring to your request, we regret to inform you that for logistical reasons, TOYOTA Deutschland GmbH no longer offers an 18-inch winter complete wheel. Currently, we offer for the RAV4 2.2 D-CAT Executive as a winter complete wheel a tire size 235/60 R16H on original rim size 7J x 16 (including tyre pressure sensor and without emergency running characteristics). Therefore, in case of a tyre breakdown at a danger point (for example Autob ahn) a spare wheel or a tire repair set are carried. More information is available to our TOYOTA dealers. We hope that we could contribute with our lines to the clarification and wish you always good ride. Best regards, your TOYOTA Deutschland GmbH XXXXXXX customer servicequotation end That means in plain language… –> There are no Toyota winter bikes in the standard tire size with the actually standard Run Flat System –> Also di e offered 16″ wheels have no run flat, spare wheel or repair kit must be carried simply a joke the whole, you decide for a safety system (about which for and again please do not discuss ) and then must completely do without it in winter. THANK YOU TOYOTA !!! for this beautiful …… Greetings Afralu

  • Laguna II,Compressor of air conditioning switches off the 2500 revolutions

    With my Renault Laguna 2, year 2003, 2.0, 99Kw, Km 78000, the condenser, dryer and throttle of the air conditioning system was recently renewed. The condenser had become leaky, so that coolant leaked out. After that the system worked again perfectly, until I then found that from an engine turntable of 2500 the compressor is on display. If the speed falls again below the value, the compressor starts up again automatically. Even Bosch and Renault have been puzzled since L It is tapped that the switch-off signal is generated either from the climate electronics or the motor control. Does anyone have an idea? Thank you

  • Diagnostic software for Laguna II

    Hello, I am looking for a PC-compatible software with which I can program my Laguna II. It is not about tacho manipulations, but about things like “winter wheels with tyre pressure control valves” read in or other options of the vehicle system like “storing the seat position”. Renault workshops have such a programmer, which is however to cost the 5 Mille (EUR) so. With my Grandtour 1.9dCi Initiale (9/2001) had to already A lot of things are exchanged and the Renault technicians are obviously overwhelmed by this, because then options are adjusted or deleted that I need. And run into the workshop every time because I noticed something in the factory (such as the deletion of my winter bikes programmed in autumn 2001 for example), is too annoying for me in the long run… Does someone have experiences or a tip for me? Thanks in advance.

    Good evening, I would like to try something new with the S class riders Give a comment, if a VW Phaeton is imaginable for you as an alternative or not.
