  • Winter tires, what brand?

    Hello to each other, I need for my Jetta TSI 170 HP winter tyres in the dimension 205/55 R 16 91 T (other sizes are unfortunately not allowed according to the approval). Now I have the choice between BF Goodrich and Fulda Kristall Montero2. Of the driving characteristics both are probably fine. But it is also important to me that the driving noise is not so loud. Can someone give a hint under this aspect or have their own experiences? Greeting praetor

  • Which one of these radios?

    Hi, which of these radios is best in your opinion? I am especially important that it has min. 2 VVA and the sound is good, MP3 and a good radio reception. Please don’t suggest any others but just go into them here: 1. PANASONIC CQ-C5301N Would be my favorite because I like the design and it has a motorized flipdown which I like very much. 2. JVC KD-G511 has color display, I also like it quite a bit. 3. KENWOOD KDC-W5031 I would already have the distance-bedie ung (my old is also a Kenwood (KDC-M xxxx) and I was actually very satisfied with it, unfortunately it starts to cause problems now and has just one VVA.) Here I also like the design and I had a Kenwood before. 4. Bluepoint Calgary MP35 Shall have proper sound. Design I don’t like so and quite limited functionality I also had a CLARION DB-358RMP in mind, but 2 VVA are mandatory, so it falls away already. Tjo would be nice if you would tell me which of these is the best, I would like to have the first one because of the functionality. But the sound and reception must of course also be correct and is more important. Front system is a Hertz DCX 130 which will soon be operated by a Blaupunkt GTA 200 Flash. Subwoofer will probably soon also be a Hertz, operated by a Carpower. mfg

  • New Radio due: Experiences with mp3-skip times???

    New radio due: Experiences with mp3-skip times 9812RB ??? Hi guys, my good old Sony gives up my mind so slowly, because it jumps constantly, especially with burnt CDs. Since I needed a reason to buy a new one for a long time…warm now at the time I play above all with the thought of buying an Alpine, Clarion, or Pioneer, because from Sony there is no one with LZK, or ? Have seen the 9812RB for 275 at guenstiger. I find for the price really super a But I don’t know where to test it. And that’s where you get into the game Who can tell me how the radio behaves in mp3 mode? (Please without pink-red glasses) – How is the Skip time? – Will the title be displayed immediately on the Skip to the next song, or only when the playback starts? – How long does the radio take to read a CD / change folders? – How is the basic noise in mp3 mode when quiet? Thanks already to all

  • 100W RMS at 1% klinr ! how much W rms at 10% klinr?

    hope that we can install this thread a little more theoretically than the “to the amp. knowr”, since we have all doubted my honesty related to my 140 DB. the original question was if I draw more power from an amp, if I step up the gain and additionally turn up the bassboost fully. so …… the gain is as we all know, not the “lutstaerken controller but the regulator that regulates the input voltage sensitivity and the bass b. d. he, who raises a sound pressure increase at a certain freq. mostly 40-55 Hz by 3,6,9…18 Db. so if I turn the gain controller so high that it is more likely to distort it it does mean that she plays in the clipping or? but that also means that if I play even further on the gain controller I have an even greater distortion and that again an even higher performance or? because the performance specification RMS is always coupled to the clir factor 1% or thus man the amps below which can compare or ? so if my or share of my contribution is wrong I ask to explain it factually, since we all learn nothing and it is little produckive.

  • Summer tire buy new, please for help!

    Hello dear community and Passat driver, I bought the following VW a good 2 weeks ago:VW Passat Variant 1.9TDI, Highline, 4motion following summer tires were up so far (but are already totally crazy and have to be exchanged):Michelin Radial X 205/55 ZR 16, 91W MXM after several hours of research on the internet and consultation by specialist dealers are now available for me the following models:1. Pirelli – P Zero Nero – P72. Michelin – Pilot Primacy HP – Pilot Exalto the Pirelli tires should vo I’m not an extreme-in-the-curve-leg, but when it comes to a more sporty way of driving, I want to be on the safer side.The Michelin tires are tougher, but tend to be much higher rolling noise after longer running times. now I’d be interested if you might have had some experience with the corresponding models, and if you could help me with the decision. rhinein und gute weiterfahrt! ;D lg Roxxx

  • Car wobbles with summer tires

    Hello, I observe an interesting phenomenon: the car tends to wobble / jump with the summer tires. The history. I bought the car last year. The winter tires were already raised (205/55/R16 from Pirelli). In the spring of this year I got the 235/45/R17 Conti SportContact3. Since then the car is a bit wobbly on the road. Up to 110-120 km/h it hoops over every unevenness, as if the shock absorbers were not in order. the door doesn’t close too gently, the whole car swings for a while as if it were standing on 4 springs instead of tyres. The tyre pressure is 2.6 bar. Manufacturer recommendation (both Audi and Conti) 2.3 bar (empty) to 2.6 (fully loaded). Ok, I mostly drive empty, but nevertheless, it won’t be at the 0.3 bar. I have read only good things about the tyres everywhere so far, both in test reports and in the A4 subforum. Could someone explain what this is all about? Gruss, l inch

  • Car hire as an accident replacement

    Hello, after I see how intensely here some pure people deal with the whole thing, it would be nice if someone could help me further. I get a rental car due to an accident from the opposing insurance and had never had one before. As a budget they set me 50 euros per day. I would hand the car in on Fridays and pick up Mondays. Because of my still young 21 years only Sixt is in question. The current car is quite well motorized with 160 hp, even the equipment can be seen. I could rent both in Ludwigshafen, as well as in Mannheim, the selection of available vehicles seems quite large. Actually I wanted to rent the class “LSMR” (60 euros per day), but this is often discouraged from doing so, why is that? What could you recommend to me? I like to drive quickly and comfortably, would the class “LDAR” be an alternative? Diesel would be better if e But if the big motorizations are mostly only available as gasoline, I would take one of them. So, what can you recommend and suggest to me there =) I will probably drive 700 km over the three days, as there is a lot to be done.

  • Super Belifrei in Ford Fiesta 1.1i built in 1990

    Hello, can you also refuel super-lead-free without hesitation? So far I have always filled beniz-lead-free, but probably soon there will be no more gasoline and currently the prices are the same I wanted to know if there is anything to consider. What do you fuel and can I fill super-lead-free without any problems? Does this damage the old engine or does it come to him? Thank you! Greeting, maig1

  • Is it aluminum instead of copper or am I wrong?

    Who can help me with that I drilled a new hole at the we at a mass distributor, and actually thought to me that the one is made of copper. Now after that the great gold plating was gone only aluminum came to light. Is that normal that the parts are made of aluminium and not of copper? If I could easily take an aluminium block and make myself a distributor. Or is there any use of you. Somehow now I don’t see any more through I always thought copper is the better ladder why was the part made of aluminum? The distributor block I used is from Sinus Live Who can help me now what I should do, make one of copper or one of aluminum? I will not buy any more that a buddy can make me the
