Hello together, in the coming weeks I would like to get a new vehicle. So far I was 100% sure that it will be the F20 LCi 120i. (I already drove as a rental car and was very satisfied) Now I checked out out of curiosity what a Golf VII GTI would cost and was surprised that there are a lot of offers up to 21.000€. In the comprehensive the golf would be even 300 € cheaper (SF3) My driving profile: working distance 19 km country road (simple) Hard to any city rides/short Go home 5 times a year, 350km each (simple) Presumably it’s easiest to drive the Golf Mal sample to have a direct comparison. Nevertheless, I would like to have your opinion on it. I don’t have a precise plan, but I certainly want to drive the car for at least 3 years. What about the durability of the engines? The consumption seems to be relatively similar and therefore to be negligible. Is the golf more expensive with the workshop costs? I look forward to your answers!

Used rims bought, and cleaned
Hey, I greet all of you. Just wanted to tell you something. We needed another set of rims for our thickness, as the current ones are equipped with WR. After some searching (also consider whether it should become new rims) we decided for used ones, also 18 inches with 245 tyres. Then found in our radius also some, 5 pcs. a brand new (replacement wheel) looked at, price negotiated, and taken with. Damages are small, but completely ok. d was so well, today I made it for cleaning. What should I say, from minute to minute I had to grin more. Is already great, used for ́n narrow € bought, 2-3 hours cleaned, and then such a result. I am fully satisfied. (by the way, the SRs on it are from 2018, approx. 7mm profile) Greetings Ebby

Screw in the tire still repairable?
Hello, on today’s ride the RKS is registered via control display. My rear right tyre had instead of 2.1 only 1.5 bar. Fortunately, I could fill up the air at a gas station about 10 minutes later. At the later tyre inspection in the garage I could then find a screw which has drilled into the tread. What do the experts say, is the tyre still repairable or is the screw too far on the outer flank? The air loss is rather creeping about 0, 1 bar per day. In total, the tyre has now been moved to the city with maybe 10 KM with 1.5 instead of 2.1 bar. The tyre is about 4 years old (Winter tire Dunlop Winter Sport 5 205/60 R16 H) and only nearly 10,000 KM run, repair would probably still make sense economically.

Different model generations on one axis
Hello, had an accident with our leasing car, which was paid by the opposing insurance. A tire had to be replaced (1 year old). On the vehicle are privately procured Michelin Crossclimate mounted, the new replaced tire is the new model generation Michelin Crossclimate 2. According to Michelin the rubber compound and the profile was changed. Even if it is allowed by law, a mixed tire is not recommended according to ADAC and the old Crossclimat e is also available in principle. Furthermore, I would like to sell the tyres after the 2 year leasing and there are 4 identical tyres certainly better. Before I turn to the car dealership, does someone have experience whether one is entitled to an identical tyre replacement or alternatively two new tyres for an identical axle?

Help ! ABS and EBD error message without reason
Hello dear Doblo / Fiatkenner with my first post here, I’ll get in touch with you with a call for help. Maybe someone can start something with my error description and help with it. I start from the beginning and try to be brief. Our Doblo is a 2008er year of construction, version Malibu 1.3 Multijet 86ps (or so). Starting a year ago about my wife complained often that he doesn’t make a muks when starting, especially if it rained. about April Finally one morning (it was our wedding day and we wanted to go for breakfast) the on-board computer flickered, became completely dark, went after several key turning again and then broke “motor control unit defective, immobilizer defective, later still ABS came defective and EBD defective. After several times fuxe I changed the starter. Since then it always starts well. But the ABS and EBD defective Feh When reading out with Fiat, nothing concrete was found and so the mechanic thought it could be the battery.. so one battery from the workshop in and the other charged.. Error reset.. But error message remained in the on-board computer.. Then he said that it could be a mass problem.. so let search (170 euros) not found anything. Then he said that it might be the instrument cluster defective (500 euros).. I then got a used one at Ebay with the same data and With diagnostic software there was then an error on the right front wheel sensor.. so sensor changed. Now the Doblo is error-free according to the diagnostic software. Unfortunately I still have the 2 error messages in the display. If I start the ignition, the symbol for ABS and hand brake remains illuminated and stands in the display: ABS defective EBD defective motor off. The message ABS defective EBD remains defective even during the whole ride. Battery voltage itself seems OK (12,8V in standstill) and with running engine 14,1V. Now I have to go to Tüv in January and don’t know what else I could do. Don’t have any concerns about getting a TÜV. Although according to the diagnostic device everything is OK. Please !!! Who knows this error and found out what was the fault ? lg. Gerhard

Fiat doblo 1.9 Suction diesel doesn’t start anymore
Hello to all Have a 01ér fiat doblo with 1,9 l. suction diesel and 110tkm. The vehicle started to go out suddenly about 1 month ago during the ride, after which you could start it immediately again. Even after turning off the time did not jump immediately. This however became worse and worse. So bad that I can hardly get started now. According to the diagnostic device of the fiat it is supposed to be the diesel pump, which is not cheap now. I wanted now before I started a new diesel pump build here to ask if maybe jm had the same problem once and what was possibly the error for it, because I read here in the internet similar problems that were not fixed after a new pump. Ps: during the ride also the red motor control light lit. I am grateful for every advice

The friendly wants in exchange 419 Euronen for the DK. In the net offer dealer a flap with un I had already removed and cleaned the flap, it is also easy to run. What would you advise me to do?
