  • Rim input

    Hi. I’m looking for a few complete summer tyres for my VW Passat 35i, Bj 96. I’ve already found some, with the right tyre size. The tyres are registered ( 205/50 R 15). My question now: Do I have to register the new rims and if so – how does that work and what would it cost? Rims are not listed in the vehicle letter… There is only one part-certificate for the complete wheels. Is that enough to register the tyres? To the rims: Nam e by the manufacturer Rondell 7Jx15 H2 ET28 and the hole circle is 4×100.

  • Cheap tires and their prejudices…

    I have been driving for 5 years and 70,000 km with Maxxis tires through the area, and can report absolutely nothing bad about the driving characteristics …! I have for summer and for winter each 195/65/R 15, and drive mainly highway and country road. At that time I had not so much money available, and just let me get the cheapest tires up, with the special hint that they hold also only half as long, and also have significantly less grip. now the question: In how far is this even true??? (for everyday life) If you leave the problems with some twice as expensive “brand tires”, then I no longer really believe in such statements… So why spend a lot of money, if the quality is not much better?

  • Another new one found at the NG Cabrio…

    Hello, I have found something new again, when the 133PK NG engine is warm. If it is warm (130 degrees), as well as in the picture, I drive just about 160 km/h at 9 degrees/dry outside temperature. It then unfolds its power very funny when accelerating, until 4000 hesitantly normal, then suddenly it pulls once, as if it had a thrust and then again slow to little acceleration. That probably the circuit switch is defective, I have already tested, see picture. I turn it off/on it runs normal again for a while, then after about 10min. it stays stuck again at 1150-1200. In the last days I changed this: – battery 72ah – 10W40 oil + all filters – spark plugs – fuel pump + filter – thermostat + sensor – 2x oil pressure sensors (which has lit) What else? – circuit switch! – petrol pressure regulator possibly – KAT + Lambda KM STAND: 215,000 Someone else valuable to say?

  • Screws oils/fats ?

    Hi people again I have a question. last time it was time again and I put my summer rims on it. the screws were almost not to be loosened anymore. a rim also went on (key slip and fully into the rim). the trollos of mature service have tightened the screws much too dolle. after a long fight I got them down. now I wanted to know if someone oiled the mature screws of you / greases?? I have never seen this before, that this is done but you don’t have to make life difficult for yourself. I didn’t want to get rid of it like that.Could be that a screw could loosen or something. well, I’m curious what you say about it. thank you: Greetings

  • When will the Conti SC 5 P arrive??

    Moin Girls, when does the new Continental SportContact 5 P come on the market? Bzw. when does it appear on the retrofit market (new German aftermarket)? It is probably already used on the factory side. At SportAuto there were already a Focus RS, the Megane RS as well as the also new TT-RS with the SC5 P in the test. Who knows what? ps: Why Conti omits the SC4 the cuckoo knows…

  • Lidl Charger isn’t right?

    Servus, I have a charger out of Lidl, this would like to C-tek. Since my car is currently not registered and I am installed and set up the music, I have the system very much in the stand running. If it has run longer I always hang over after the charger on it. Recently, the charger hung the whole night and showed by now “full” I had to run only a very short hour the music, then the battery was almost empty. Has just been enough to start. since then I have had I am a little afraid to unload the battery inadvertently and always let the motor run. today my voltage indicators have come, I installed them immediately and let the music run a bit: Battery in quiet: 12.3V net especially full, but actually ok. Music: 12V at high level then breaks the sane, but I also have a very small acid batt at the moment. Engine on: 14.4V with music still 14,4 only at very high level does the voltage fall below 14V So, 12,3V on the Batterie, I thought I could load them really full. Did I put the charger on it, which also indicates that it is loading, but the voltage remains kpnstand at 12,3V….wouldn’t have to be lifted when charging? I have the presumption that it is because it is constantly almost empty.

  • Ford MK7 130,000 KM BJ 12/95 How much to spend?!

    Hello community, first of all I want to introduce myself as I just signed up My name is Andy I am 20 years young and come from close to Wismar… I had a Ford Escort Kombi BJ 92 1.6 16V 90 Ps 240.000 Km since my 18th and I drove it until this year in March until my cylinder head gasket on the highway “Goodbye” said because of a leaky water hose Now I want to buy of course again a Ford, but now the question is whether the price of this is justified… So to the car: Brand: Ford Escort MK7 Year of manufacture: 12/95 PS: 75 Kilometer: 130.000 HU/AU: 05.09 The good one is driven by a woman who has already made a dinge zb brake at the TÜV new ignition cable. 60/40 suspension, black clear glass rear lights, black Angel Eyes, black side blinker The car looks great, has no rusts on the wheel runs, as it was with my usual. I think that’s way too much or am I wrong? What should I spend maximum for it? 2. Since the car only has Euro 1 I would like to increase it, since I would drive it longer than 1 year and 219 euros difference is to 100 and a few crushed. Can I build a cold running regulator? Bzw I can have it carried and then when registering say “Hey Hey I have the Euro 2” I only have 100 more? ^^ If you have this Fr if everyone could answer and call a few pros and cons, then I would be very grateful to you, because I found a lot in the Sufu, but unfortunately a two things not MfG Andy

  • Oil change

    Hello all, I have a question in the round. With my 2000 Clio 1.2 58 HP the oil change is on. I have currently 5w40 in it. Is that good for a Clio or should I rather take 10w40. I heard that with the 5w40 the seals should go capput. Is that really so? What can you recommend me? L.G. Janny
