  • Doormats in C215, no fixing?

    Hello, a banal theme, but nevertheless it bothers me since I have the car. My two floor mats in front constantly throw dents, push up, and slip. In the driver’s footroom I have a new floor mat in it for 2 months, which I also have to adjust constantly. In the passenger’s footroom there is always a huge wave in it. I could not find any fixing points. Which C215 owner still bothers with the topic? What can I do? Double-sided adhesive tape I think is inappropriate, d a I have to suck under the mats sometimes So, that’s it now. Ski bag full pack, and off to the night fishing greeting Daniel

  • Question about distance measurement on motorway

    Hello, was yesterday over large distances on highways. In places were attached to bridges distance meters, which could be seen accordingly. Now my questions: 1.) If you are recorded by such distance measurement, do you notice this at all or do I only know this afterwards, if I possibly get a fine notice because of too little distance? 2.) Do these devices turn a video of one in the course of the distance measurement? Finally, it must be checked if necessary, 3.) If a video is shot – can you clearly recognize the driver of the filmed vehicle? Question because I am not sure that I have always kept the prescribed distance at higher speeds. Of course, I am now concerned that I was filtered/recorded unnoticed by a distance meter and then received unpleasant mail in a few weeks. H open times that there is nothing coming… Thank you for the help, otter

  • new Focus II with flaws

    Hello, since the 13.05.2005 I have the new Focus II Tunier Sport with 1.6L TI-VCT 115PS petrol. It took only 24 hours, until the car stood and was repaired by the ADAC (Zündkabel defective). The consumption is sensational. On the highway at 100kM (because you still save the car) 8 liters to 100kM (specified 5.1). In the city area 11 liters to 100kM (specified 8.7). When carefully examining the car I found that some parts are missing. In the Xenon headlamps the headlight cleaning system and the light length regulation are missing. The headlight glasses are not, as with the sport usually darkly stored. A wrong roof strip was delivered. The air conditioning button ticks. In the city the car is very quiet, on the highway it is a lot louder. The engine is tight. Apparently Ford no longer has time to check the cars. Optisch looks good. The delivery time has been 13 weeks. I already regret that I have sold my old Opel friends.

  • Problem with gas conversion – Mav 2.3

    Hello I had my Mav ( 2.3 Bauj. 2006 ) converted to LPG car gas and have only problems with it It was installed with me at the advice of my rebuilder`s a STAG 300 system and an electronically controlled flange Lub ! The price of 1900 Euro Inclusive new gas suitable spark plugs was quite OK for me , because Ford for the conversion with the same components requires 2600 Euro . The car in the lower speed range causes problems because it is in the city area and at approx. 2000 revolutions jerks . I have addressed my rebuilder on it and he has also tried several times to get rid of the jerking away but he simply does not get it away . After the last attempt to get the car quiet he told me that I have to live with it because it is an Ami ? It just does not make fun with the car to drive in the city with gas – if I switch over to petrol only is the Ruckeln away ! Who has also made such experiences or the same problem , should I drive to a Ford workshop ? I am doing well and has to give it to me again to sell a car ? Who can write it right back to me ?

  • Automatic transmission 2.0 170PS AWD Tourneo Custom V710 BJ2024

    Moin together, we have recently the Tourneo Custom with the 170hp diesel and four-wheel drive. After the first longer motorway ride I noticed that the gearbox with the short “to give full throttle and overtake on the highway starts to ratter or jerk, whereby the vibrations are clearly noticeable even in the interior. Even if I take the foot off the gas it rattles still so long until the automatic transmission switches, then it is abruptly gone. Similar to this morning when driving in city traffic. Between 30 and 50 kmh with very light gas give it starts to ratter and jerk. Only a short time later it switches down a gear and the jerking is gone. With the jerking / ratting on the highway giving the gas felt a little bit more. Does the gearbox just shut down here too late? Before I give the topic to the dealer, I wanted to ask if the “normal” is? Many greetings Stef

  • HYMER RV EXIS – t /motor damage FIAT DUCATO Multijet 150, 2.3 l, Euro 6 after only 1000 km!

    HYMER RV EXIS – t 474, engine damage FIAT DUCATO Multijet 150, 2,3 l, Euro 6 after only 1000 km!!!!! At a speed of 100 km/h the engine suddenly started to rattle, which became a violent knock very quickly. After an immediate stop, we noticed that there was no more oil in the engine. In the workshop it was then established that the 3rd conrod bearing was “shrinked” and the seal was missing. That FIAT had problems with all new EURO 6 engines since early 2017, unfortunately I only now researched from the internet. But can it be that a motor in a new car has more kilometers than I have driven real?! The official FIAT Professionell – my camper website, where I am registered, shows my real mileage with 1000 km and a diesel engine model: Ducato Series 4 with a mileage of 4015 km still out! How can that be? Is the motor installed in the new car about a used engine? On the photos I have recorded the numbers of the engines of 1000 km and a diesel engine number of 1000 km.

  • Fiat Punto (2012) Start-stop without function

    Hello, I bought a Fiat Punto year of construction 2012 from a Fiat dealer. At the beginning there was no problem, the first 3-4 weeks the start-stop system worked quite well. But for some time the car stopped. To my driving profile: I drive daily about 15-20km in city traffic without traffic jams to work and also back 15-20km. Once a month there is also a pure highway track of about 600km. The car is perfectly maintained check booklet and there are no control lights. The day before I was at the dealer I drove also these 600km on the highway. This has read out the error codes (No available) and the battery tested (also without fault or fault). After the approximately 600km long highway ride the battery should have had a charge level of about 50%. The dealer said this is already correct, since the light engine does not charge the battery but only the battery needs to charge, which is also consumed. However, because the battery has such a low charge level, the voltage is too low to activate the start-stop function, the dealer has recommended to buy the battery for regular battery charging.
