  • Suddenly he doesn’t start anymore!

    Of course, that something like this had to happen… Today we went shopping for a short time and when we returned (after about 20 minutes) there was nothing more. When pressing the button all the lights are on as usual, the usual check and then an excited clapper in the safety box (passenger side/fuss room) and then everything is off. My witch tries it another 2 times, again nothing. We discuss a little about what could be going on now (at the weekend the display for tyre flaps has spun around) and again Our JCW starts immediately as if nothing had been! So quickly home and only to be really safe after parking started again… ha,ha, nic with start. It does nothing again. So quick call at the workshop – which of course first ask us the usual fool questions. Well, if anything we should just come by, master will then examine the cart, we get replacement cars of course (as always, there they are generous). My witch has only I laughed and asked what would happen if she actually stopped running the car at all – we were standing in an underground car park! That’s what they said. But wonder, this little crappy racing ensemble really starts without murmuring! Supposedly, we could drive too many short distances and therefore the battery is broken. Well, that’s what you get when you live in a small town And I always say to my witch “Please drive 1 or 2 times a month once a month on the highway around the city, the car needs what I might actually be right? I’m curious what is really the cause. Has anyone ever experienced something similar?

  • Mini does not start after thermostat exchange

    Hello, I bought a mini for my daughter. Yesterday changed the generator. After that let run whether it also loads. Did he and turned off. Then the thermostat antlers removed and a new one in. Since then runs nihct more. Water is ventilated enough in the top. Maybe someone can help me here??? Zünffunken are no there and on it green line from the control unit to the ignition coils is no voltage. Relays and fuses go, cross exchanged. I even have the old ones But nothing. With my launch I can read everything individually. No errors available. If it were due to a crankshaft or camshaft sensor, he would make a mistake, I think. I very much hope that someone can help me here. Thanks Derweil Grüße aus Darmstadt Stephan

  • Mini Cooper ABS lamp

    Moin I have a permanent problem with my Mini Cooper, BJ 2001, R50. ABS light is constantly on again. Read out: Sensor vo li sporadically Sensor renews lamp after the delete and short drive again. Read out: Sensor vo li sporadically Wheel bearing renewed with ABS ring. Light after delete and short drive REVIEW read out: Sensor vo li sporadically. To do this, the lamp for the tyre pressure control system always goes on. Have the wheels/sensors learned several times after instruction. ( Ignition on – Press the button under the handbrake lever and hold until the lamp lights up in the cockpit etc… ). I have already been busy with the ground points in the engine compartment. Someone’s idea where the problem might still be?

  • Question to the professionals: Housing construction, how much space behind the sub? (see picture)

    I don’t have the subwoofer yet, and I choose a subwoofer with as little depth as possible. Now to the actual question (see picture): Mostly the subwoofer housings look like in variant 1, but this minimizes the loading depth imens. Therefore my idea, variant 2. I want to build a housing with as little depth as possible, and pull this up as shown in the picture up to the seat can, and use the full width. (In a single sub correspondingly “same”. a. How close can I go with the magnet of the sub to the rear wall of the case? b. Is it possible to expect a different (bader) sound at the same volume than with variant 1? c. Does the volume have to be calculated differently with variant 2? d. Would it be meaningful, as in the picture with d. marks this relatively tip corner “to straighten, and, then the bass reflex tube must be pulled further? e. The following question arises with me: What is the decision for the bass reflex tube? d? Anyhow the length, but could one also lay out the raflex tube, as shown in the picture at the bottom right, which would then correspond to “d.”? Or is this protruding into the housing (as shown at the bottom left an essential part of the bassreflex? f. What diameter should bassreflex tubes have at least? And, would the installation direction be like in variant 2 ok? g. Are there recommendable subwoofers, with low installation depth? Which? Questions about questions, I hope you One or the other can answer me best all.

  • closed housing with or without bass reflex tubes?

    Hello Kollegas, have built me a housing for my phase Aliante 8″. The housing is closed and the woofer is screwed from the outside center onto the housing. Have about 16.5 liters of volume. I know that the Aliante is not designed to generate the mega basses, but I think that I can get out even more by installing bass reflex tubes. Am I right with my guess or can I save the action? I am happy with every answer!
