  • Recommended purchase b4 avant 2.6 quattro

    Hi together, I found this car: http://www.brauchtwagen.at/detailansicht.php?id_fahrzeug=842967 I already drove the engine in the a4 as quattro and in the c4 a6 as quattro and I like it. externally, however, I like the b4 better, especially as a kombi, moreover, I think that in winter the diff lock is useful (and also more fun is honestly the seller told me that he needs oil and the timing belt is probably due. my mechanic (vag vertragwerkstat) t) has told me that they make head seal, which like I have read at other places already with these models gladly makes problems, and timing belts for 1k €. how much would then be ok for the vehicle to lay down (the required 2k I certainly will not sheet)? to the cart: deutschland->österreich import. she is the 2nd owner in Austria. at the weekend I look at it personally, any tips what I can get as technically interested, but lay on it? am also for experience values on your part open. thank you in advance for your contributions

  • Small massive cooling problem

    Hello everyone! I turn in my distress to everything knowing and ignorant, looking for the solution. Because I’ve been having a problem for quite some time. But first to my car: Audi 80 Coupe Quattro Bj. 92 NG (exchange block series 85) with gas conversion And now the problem: I don’t get the Audi cold, and the fan only runs when it’s getting warm. So at least my researches. What was done so far: – Cooling system flushed. – Thermostat changed – 3Poli the switch for the fan changed – thermo sensor changed What has not yet been done: – oil changed – cooler changed (due to the ridiculously high cost) So that it is the head seal I doubt quite simply, because the cooling water is absolutely oil-free and the oil also does not show any starting point of foam formation. In addition, the pressure indicator shows no worrying values during the ride…. the temperature display ensures this. So during the operation on the Autob The cooling temperature is usually between 90°C – 100°C and the oil temperature is so close to 130°C. My question would be now too. Would “wasted” oil provide an increased temperature? And what else could you recommend to me what I could look/check. Thank you for your help! Small note to the end: For all those who think the temperatures are in the green area: No they are not!

  • Dom camp or coupling bar ??

    Salü alle zusammen ! Have a Coupe type 89 Bj 93 with 2.8 liter machine a little problem with my summer car and I just can not get behind it. I bought the car with 54000 km – at that time the noises from the front axle were still much lower than today – now I have about 90 000 km on it and it has become much louder—- I describe the sound to you:It sounds dull , occurs especially when I drive over cobblestones or with every batter- it is no hard knocking (trag joints and silent bushings are fine) it sounds like a dull-speaked dub. Are these the cathedral bearings, the coupling rod or any rubber bearing – do you have a sketch? Thank you already in advance Reini

  • Automatically switch back

    Hi ! My omi is just on edge when painting. As a transition solution I drive the 325 TDS from my father with automatic. Is the same engine/gear as in the 2.5 TD. Is my first automatic. I have driven with it now maybe 150-200 km. Now my question: Can you prevent the gearbox from having to give a little acceleration or a little bit more gas to keep the speed back? (Note: I give only a little bit of speed) more gas, so don’t make a kickdown)? I mean, it’s quite commod, but what’s always a bit annoying to me is just to switch back early in my opinion. Is the automatic actually self-learning? I mean it would have improved or adapted its switching points a bit. What’s it like compared to other automatic transmissions (especially newer automatics with 6 gears) ? Sorry for the stupid questions, but is my first automatic experience Previously there was only hand switch I ask, since my next car is also perhaps to become an automatic. Greetings Karle

  • Now my old lady is finally a family car

    So today it is done, at 7:21 o’clock our first offspring was born. It is called Xenia, weighs 3010g and is 51cm tall. So I can report about the family suitability of the Omi in the near future.

  • Cooling problem with V6 3.2 ???

    Hello, since I had my head seals done on my Omega now is the following problem, which does not want me in the head. I took the car on Friday from the workshop, on the WE hardly driven, Monday then with to work 35 back to and 35 km no problems with the temperature. Tuesday to work again, without problems in the afternoon back again, but bought in between, stood on the way to a few traffic lights, then drive on to the parking lot of the shopping center, I remember on a call, stopped to make a phone call, but let the car continue running and in the conversation the car went out, I had not noticed at all, only when I closed the phone, thought funny why is it off, I tried to start it, I didn’t then look why and look, the temperature on stop red, OK I waited for ADAC to bring the car to the workshop, It was about 45 min. When the ADAC then there was temperature down and he Spran g on, but for safety I had the car brought to the workshop, which took a look at the car Mittwoh in the morning, the temperature problem was not, in the afternoon another 40-50 km test run, during the test drive also nothing, then put in front of the workshop and let run a short time later and give three to four gassed and within 3-4 sec, the temperature curled up, so since the error was so striking, the temperature switch was ordered, then unfortunately came only Thursday, which tested the built-in, Thursday and Friday, temperature OK, then tested on Saturday, there came the problem again, now they still want to suck the WAPU and exchange the thermostat, but you are not good hope, because the error is so funny, as the temperature rises so quickly. Has VIELLET ONE SO A PROBLEM OF SCHONMAL HAVED ??????????????????????????????????????

  • Again a question about the Domis….

    Hi guys, have music in the car again for some time now, as far as so good… I only have a little problem with the Domis, they are too sharp at level, and that’s quite annoying in the long run^^ As far as the alignment and positioning is concerned, I tried everything with me already. Unfortunately, there is no change, so I assume that the current alignment etc. is i.o…. The system is also passively separated, the crossovers are separated at 3000Hz…Is that too deep for the D omis? What are your experience values? I can have the turnouts of Frank rebuilt, even a lowering of -2db to -3db would be possible… I’m just a little unsure, because the Domis are currently already finely dissolving, each detail reproducing.The stage is also good…Only the high tone is too sharp at Pegel’s greeting John
