Hello together, think about getting me a Calibra (136 HP, Cliff Edition). Is this model recommended and what should I pay attention to when buying it? As with all cars, there are certainly certain weak points with this model, which you know very well. Had already been an Astra convertible years ago, but I’m not familiar with the Opel yet. How many “Cliff” have been built at all, or were they not limited? If I better go to another variant of the Ca libra should grab, so please give me a few tips. Running speed is about 155.000km, year 12/1996. Are 2850 EURO reasonable, or too much? Thanks for your answers. MfG paterman

E-Ton Vector 250 – Insurance, admission etc.?
Hello everybody! I ordered one of the last E-tone Vector 250 for a banger price. Is there only the 300s. Think next weekend or so I have them then. Now a few questions: -Where did you insured your Quad and what do you pay??? Many insurances grade quads quite high. Which ones don’t? – How does it work with the registration? Simply COC papers, perso and double card? – What do I have to do to get two small square plates??? What else do I need to know about the Vector 250? Frequent defects and and and and – What top speeds do you achieve?? Wait for your experiences….

Machine boils off…wackler or defect at the thermoswitch???
Hello, I had to have an unusual experience a few days ago. And that was the temperature of my 3.0 V6 shot up into the red area – and that at -12°C outside temperature. Of course, I’m interested in how it came to this. First I suspected the fan motors along with fuses, because they didn’t start when the climate was switched on, which is usually the case… Furthermore, I found that the terminal 4 in the central fuse box (according to the manual there must be a 15 Ampère fuse) is not occupied – no contacts in it, which could take a fuse – very mysterious…. Since I did not know any further and the car had cooked, I had to leave it standing….. The next day I had to make a ride (outside temperature -1°C) and tried to put the climate back into operation – and look, both fan motors were running – impeccable. But it is inexplicable to me why the fan motors mi t climate sometimes work and sometimes not; and without climate not at all?!?? My suspicion now applies primarily to the thermoswitch (if the omega has something like that). In my Corsa A it was once broken and then the fan motor didn’t jump on either….. How can I check/replace/bridge it if that’s what it is? Or is it electronically otherwise regulated by the omega? And where is the cooling water thermostat (suspecting moment Numero 2) and is this perhaps electronic I know that’s a lot of questions, but maybe someone can help me… Thank you so much, Vince.

Oil leak on turbocharger
Moin, drive an Omega 2.5 DTI year 03.2002 and had to have the turbocharger replaced at 110,000km due to oil loss. After now 3000km in 8 weeks it drips again. Is this a general weak point of this engine. Have with the predecessor BMW engine (130 hp) had no problems at all with the turbo at 270.000km. Or can the workshop have made a mistake when installing it? Did anyone ever have similar problems with the 2.5 DTI engine?

Who would have been to blame in this case?
I don’t know if it’s the right forum for this, but I have a question about road traffic rules. I drove on a 3 lane road this morning, the right was the bus lane, the bus changed to the middle lane and since I wanted to turn right, I changed to the bus lane – from the bus I wanted to drive the remaining 20m to the intersection covered, but just before the intersection is still a driveway – just before I passed the driveway – I had to take a full braking mac because someone from the opposite lane wanted to drive into the driveway – I couldn’t see him at all – only reacted quickly. And the one who wanted to enter the driveway turned off in front of the bus. Who would have been to blame in this case, the bender who didn’t pay attention to me? Or me – who changed to the bus lane? How is that if the bus lane is still “active”, can I then go on the bus lane to turn off or do I have to turn off from the middle lane? Sorry if the text is a bit confused, but it’s already quite late… Greetings Bonatus…

Manipulation of tachos will be punishable in the future!
Manipulation of Tacho’s future punishable Berlin (dpa) – Anyone who manipulates car tachos and thus deceives used car buyers or insurance companies will have to reckon with juicy penalties in the future. Deprivation of liberty up to one year or fines will also be due in case of manipulation of speed limiters in trucks or buses. The road traffic law will be amended accordingly, the Federal Ministers for Transport and Justice, Manfred Stolpe and Brigitte Zypries (both SPD), informed on Friday with According to Stolpe, the criminality envisaged by the draft law in Tacho manipulations does not only refer to the owners of the vehicles. “We will also severely penalize employees of workshops who are relocating electronic odometers on behalf of them in the future.” Zypries said that buyers of used cars would be better protected in the future. “In addition, relevant websites advertise that manipulation of the odometer is free of penalties. .” (partly) published on 22.04.2005 at 8:26 p.m. © Hamburger Abendblatt

Alcovorous test equipment
Hello everyone! I know it’s the case in Germany that you will be tested with such a small handheld device during an alko-control and in case of a suspected case you will have to make a blood sample. is that true? if yes, how are the experiences with these alko-pretest devices? in Austria only alcomats are used, which are directly in the gendarmerie/police car. they seem to be quite exact, since they are also considered as proofs. malfall in .at not with alcohol. because you can do only very few tests with these devices, since it takes quite a long time is now discussed about pre-test devices. and only in the suspected case the large, expensive, slow alcomats should be used. however, the internal minister resists because she thinks the error rates for pre-test devices are far too large for a practical use. I see all this rather as an excuse, what do you think? achja… in Austria is the statistical chance to get into an alcohol control scandalous low. statistically you are asked to check every 33.5 years once…

Illicit removal from the scene of the accident
Actually the wrong forum here doesn’t matter. A cousin of mine, has had the driver’s license for about 2 weeks. (at the exam he failed once) I have also been driving with him more often than he doesn’t race and so, however, if you drive, you have the impression that he can’t drive a car at all. He drives as I drove in the first driving hour. (but doesn’t matter) In any case, he has touched a car quite easily a few days ago when parking and is then e He then parked his car about two kilometers away. So then he came from work and wanted to drive away, there was a note on the window wiper, that he should call the number and the number at de Polente. He then made, after which I ended up talking to him and then the polyp said that he was on the phone with the hit and then maybe the two can clear it out. But to the police must drive away. (I know how stupid he is) ss after all, because the policeman has to write a report and have to record all this. I don’t want to hear something like: “Do you have a stupid kinship or something” (I know that myself!!! what can you say about it???

I always drive like this:(
Super Sonntag, Aachen 17.04.05: 174 instead of 60km/h: Driver nevertheless invisibly Even the Aachen police officers marveled: “I always drive like this”. After the first check immediately the next offense. An unlearnable family father pulled the Aachen police out of the traffic during a speed monitoring. The officers had measured the man in a closed village at 174km/h. At this point 60km/h were allowed. he, when he was stopped by the police officers. With his wife and two little children on board, the youngest just four years old. He has been driving like this for ten years, he explained to the police. He had been clear that he would be caught at some point, according to the police report. When the police explained to him the consequences – bus money and driving ban – the family father wreaked himself. Finally he drove away with squeaking tires and laid again in dangerous behaviour to the day. He overtook another car, skipped in front of it and braked it. “The driver could only prevent a daring braking manoeuvre from a serious accident”, says the report of the officials. Fortunately, at the new scene of the crime, other policemen stopped the driver again and now made “nails with heads”. They confiscated the man’s driver’s license and filed a criminal complaint for a dangerous incident. Interference in road traffic. In addition, they sent a report to the road traffic office, in which the authority is explained the irresponsibility of the driver. — Arghh, I hope he never sees his fleck again. Did he blow his whole mind through the exhaust?? Greetings Meik

Routine timing belt change at the Megan Benzimotor
Hello Renault friends, I have a Megan convertible his 5 1/4 years, but so far I have driven only 10,000 km. Unfortunately the sun did not shine so often or I had to work. Now the Renault service wants to change the timing belt and thinks that he has aged and can tear. This thing costs so around 600,– EUR, because also the water pump and the pulleys should be replaced. Not that I think such a timing belt lasts forever, but that after 5 years it automatically and completely unab It is certainly made of a high-quality material. Is the belt verifiable on cracks or aging phenomena? Does it age at all worth mentioning and if so what? How often does such a belt really tear in practice? I ask for your experience in order to be able to assess the risk better. Many greetings and always good ride! hansi99
