Hello everyone, I wanted to get to know how drivers of the vehicle in the title of the consumption looks so far. I have already read some statements and also test reports about it and there is talk about 7l-8l/100km everywhere. Also with fuel monitor an average of 7,2l/100km is achieved and a minimum consumption of just 5,9l/100km. However, I can not quite believe this information, especially considering the fact that the vehicle is moved with us with 5,6l/100km (city traffic, country and federal roads) and even has potential down. What do your experiences look like in this regard?

Punto Evo AU failed
Hello together, I was yesterday with the Punto Evo (1,4 petrol) of the friend at the TÜV that she had increased 1.5 years ago.Unfortunately there was no badge because he did not pass the AU. Lambda value too high and CO value too high. (No error code and no indicator light on) Now I was in 3 workshops grossly inquire.One says certainly exhaust system leaks appointment in 2-3 weeks free to look up. 2 says completely check it speaks for false air but date is possible at the earliest in 3 weeks. The 3 says neither exhaust nor Lambda but maybe only spark plugs. I am questioned myself and thought I would ask the Fiat experts among you. Greetings

Heated exterior mirrors
ATTENTION! I have now built a set of heated exterior mirrors. It works great and finally you can see something in the rear view mirror even in winter and even in rainy weather. I thought, I offer a retrofit set, if the interest is there. So please, you should have interest in this, then Postet. Would encourage me in my decision to try it. By the way, also goes to the old ranger to upgrade. Costs will be about 60 – 70 €.

Noise – Ultrasound range Who knows this?
Have a constant whistle on the highway several times after full load operation – independent of speed, sounds like an ultrasonic whistle and goes away only when I slow down and wait about 3 minutes. I have now shot that it comes from the turbo but don’t know it because you can’t locate it badly, but from the front it comes. Oh yes 3,0 WildTrak (at the time without a chip) as if it can’t be. I haven’t made a diagnosis yet but if I go to the dealer who can’t understand it because it takes 45min to the highway and that’s a rough trial ride. Does anyone know the problem??

Coupling broken at ASG after 27,000km
Hello, I’ve been driving a used purchased Hyundai i10 1.2 with ASG for a year. The car had 12,500 km when I bought it. Now the second maintenance was due with approx. 27,000 km. I explained to the dealer that I have been observing the phenomenon for a few months now, if I speed up quickly, then the speed from approx. 3000 revolutions in the same gear drops again and again or jumps, although I constantly and relatively gently accelerate. The Hyundai dealer told me after the maintenance has been done that the clutch is broken and should be replaced. Now I ask myself as a car layer: How can the clutch be due with an automated switching gear after 27,000? I was told that I would not be under the guarantee. Additional was explained to me, that can certainly happen if, for example, the ASG at the traffic light would not switch to “N” or at a lot of stop and go. So a little I had the feeling that I was being accused of a wrong operation here. However, I did not find anything in the operating manual for this purpose? Has experience?

Hello forum community, I have a question. It’s about the i20 (GB) 1.4l gasoline with automatic gearbox (converter) of my daughter. After how many years or km is the transmission oil changed with this model? Unfortunately I could not find anything in the net or here in the forum at all.

New i10 with automatic – recommended…?
Hello dear forum, my parents want to switch from the Golf Sportsvan to a small car, among other things because of the size, but especially health-related after almost 50 years switch on automatic. Now I have researched a bit and heard about the automatic transmission from the i10 this and that… Not so reliable, high consumption, quite a change from the switch etc. Can you confirm or invalidate that? My father, however, who hardly drives himself, is very skeptical and negative about the change. My mother longs for the day, on which she can simply “dangle” the left leg, but also has respect for the change. On Saturday there is now a test drive at the dealer. Are there any special features with the vehicle and/or beginner’s error, to which I could point out my parents? Thank you for your feedback!

KA suitable for students?
Hello dear forum user, short to me: I am 18 years old and student in the 2nd semester. I now own my driver’s license for more than a year and slowly it is not enough for me to get the car of the parents only from time to time on the weekend. I need to use public transport about 1h to university, my friend also lives 1h away from me, so that I spend about 3h on “slim” days in buses and trains. I have also thought for some time about cheaper alternatives to the car, however, scooters are just too dangerous and too weather-dependent. So now I am just about to inform myself about cars to be financed as cheaply as possible and have stuck with the (new) Ford KA (for alternatives I am also open). My parents and grandparents thought that they would pay me a car, but the running costs (sprit, insurance, taxes) could not afford to pay me the whole time of my life. (I have to say that my parents own 2 cars and now the 3rd in the family would come to this. ) That means that I would be able to make my purchase of my car again. In addition, I would have to have to have to save my money. I have to pay for my life.

New speakers for my Ka
Hello everyone, I have a Ford Ka built in 1999. The speakers in there are all the same really miserable and the right one is now just buzzing and roaring. I was already at ATU, but they don’t have speakers in their range that would fit in there. The size is 165 mm and the problem is that the speakers are very narrow (so the installation depth is that I think…) and therefore no boxes fit. Has someone ever built into a Ford Ka that was built before 2000 new loudspeakers. From 2000 they probably rebuilt the speakers because they themselves noticed that the old construction was total crap… Nu i really can’t hold out this noise anymore… I would be very happy to get information soon.

First experience with the new KA
Hi to all who already have it. I would be interested in how you find the little one like this after the first kilomers. Have you already ended up with weaknesses in the processing or have other weaknesses at the dealer repaired or is the new KA just well processed and fulfills the expectations according to equipment and performance. It would be good if also for the new one a forum is built up, in which experiences and tips are exchanged. 110 pages on delivery time is already competition and does not really help, except Frustaufbau. The new topic could be very helpful for all the waiting or those who get the KA in these weeks. What do you mean out there? Greetings from Lower Saxony.
