  • How do you bring beginners to safety?

    Hello, I have a rather serious question: My nephew made his driver’s license 3 weeks ago. Nice and good, you’re actually proud, but I have a few concerns even if I’m honest. My nephew is already a , let’s say, “traffic auditory”… I drove with my nephew about a week ago and we almost built a Ufall. However, this was not such an accident where you could have said that it would have been the other one, the fault or it was just a novice mistake out of uncertainty, no, he was one too fast and wanted to overtake a car before the turn (and these were only some of the things)… The other day my sister called me and said he drove the first scratcher into his car. I think now, how I can best show him clearly, that he does not make himself happy with such a way of driving. I have now bought this book “Leader’s license away – What now? ” Vlt shows him what consequences e have thought about doing a driving safety training with him, what do you think? Do you have a few more tips on how to make him change his driving style? I hate to let it happen to an accident…

  • Points in Flensburg

    Hello, yesterday I received a letter from the office of the Fürerschein, about my score and that I am allowed to take part in a free-will construction seminar. Somehow the number of points did not suit me and I checked it better. See there, although between two failures more than 2 years have passed. In my opinion, the points expire after 2 years. I thought that before I run to the lawyer here I asked if I was with the 2 years i or is there a worm? I am very grateful for every answer.

  • Warning has false information and false fees, but still pay?

    Hi, had received a warning because of a few km/h too much in a lane narrowing on a country road. The measuring point was outside of villages. After one side 200m to the village entrance, after the other approx. 800m to the next place. But I was issued a warning for inside places instead of outside. That makes 5 Euro difference, naturally in favour of the municipality. What do you do there? Subject to less pay would probably mean a bus money procedure, so the over Is that what you’re gonna pay?

  • Only on winter tires??

    Hello guys, yes I again (The Clown) want to know how you feel about summer tires, because I have only been riding on winter tires for over 15 years now. The reasons for my decision were great. 1. I live in the mountains and we usually have 1x in the month snow 2. The average temperature here is also very low (better hooping) 3. Even in rain, winter tires are better in my opinion 4. Spare me the annoying change (if it all wants at the same time also n) 5. Need only one set of rims (have only steel rims) 6. Ride on average only about 4 ́000 km of motorway (here only allowed 120 km/h) 7. Other people drive your old winter tires also in summer 8. Always buy only brand tyres It becomes dangerous when tourists with their super heavy 4×4 SUW ́s have made it up the mountain with summer tires but then come down a cross on my track. And sometimes seriously .. who has scho snow chains for his SUW on super wide summer tires. Greetings .. your clown

  • 2.3l-150 Multijet: Change timing belts or not?

    I bought a used Pössl mobile home (box car) with Maxi chassis and 2.3L Multijet – 148PS. It was built in 2013 and only had a real 2000km down (I was able to verify by hand TÜV reports and gas tests). The car was bought again by the previous owner in 2013 and used once. After that it stood in a carport and was driven only to the all-possible TÜV and gas tests. The engine looks like fresh from the factory, no blooms etc., all steel parts still have d the original varnishes and have no rust. So the mileage is real. However, the colleague never had a customer service (what a miracle, with the low mileage). I have now transferred the vehicle home (500km) and have also handled it accordingly carefully. I would say that the engine has not really entered yet. So now he has at present just 2500km on it. First of all I want to make an oil/filter change of course, because I z to assume that even modern engines have increased abrasion at the beginning, which should be removed quickly with the oil and on the other hand do not know whether and how oil ages when a vehicle is standing longer. However, I have already been approached twice independently of each other from different points of view, because I should have the timing belt changed for safety reasons. Now a belt like this lasts at least 60000km, usually much longer. So I thought rather about having it still inside the belt. I was told, however, that a timing belt is also aging without it running and that 8 years are the point where a timing belt should be out regardless of the running performance. Is that so right that the aging of the timing belt material in the stand is so exorbitant that it has to be out after 8 years? Then you would have to have the time, the time, the timing belt, the timing belt material in the stand is so exorbitant that it has to be out after 8 years? he has already been in some spare part warehouse, pulling off and doing so, afaik nobody. Up to now I had never thought about timing belts and had them changed only after mileage, but mostly rather than prescribed by the manufacturer. So what to do? Let it go and switch in one or two years or out immediately?

  • Fiat Ducato Lack Reassembly How-To

    The current paint condition is getting worse and worse as usual with the series (250 Ducato). However, since the general condition is good, the vehicle is absolutely reliable and the current vehicle prices are quite heavy I have now penetrated to attack a complete painting. Good painting skills (practically very good, theoretically rather less) are available, a clean hall and the necessary technology as well. And before the question comes up, yes, comparable works have already been done. rchführt with very satisfactory result. So please do not have any fundamental discussions about the skills but solution-oriented contributions. Rather, I am not quite sure how far I should work in the current paint and which varnishes I should use. Previous paint completely down to the painting or only sand off the damage areas on a large scale and only sand on the rest? Then completely prime again, or only base paint and clear paint? Which paint use n? I had ordered a specially mixed varnish from a well-known supplier during the last repairs. But this one “created” the original varnish in some places, so something was not compatible. I would be happy if someone would share their experiences with me 🙂

  • Fiat Ducato Maxi 250 problems with hard chassis/tire pressure long-term experience sought

    I recently acquired an almost new 2014 ér Fiat Ducato Maxi L5H2 and expanded it to WoMo. I had a VW bus before and am negatively surprised by the pitch hard to non-existent chassis in combination with 4.5 bar and 5 bar in the Conti Van4Season tires. You can notice every pebble and every road crossing, and that with an almost new car. Of course it is a transporter and you move in comfort at a different level, but the sounds, blows and vibrations leave a This is far too hard, fine vibrations are passed on to the body unfiltered.The Maxi has reinforced brakes and the large 16 inch wheels as well as reinforced leaf springs, in an empty drive this may be too hard now, but I was on the balance and I’m in the middle of the car, but I’m not sure if I’m going to be able to do it. it 3,2t without passenger close to the maximum load. Now of course I am interested in long-term experiences of other plagued Ducato drivers in terms of the durability of the original suspension, how does that feel after 200tkm or more? Lt. my dealer create ORC rims in combination with 2.8 bar in the 18 inch wheels improvement, since I would like to keep the original wheels, however, would prefer with a suspension upgrade. Air is not in my question, my favorite would be e currently the AL-KO ACS and ARS system. Does anyone have experience with it? The chassis should cost 220€ incl. installation, what costs the registrations. How much is the vehicle raised at the rear and front, is it possible to raise the rear by distance block f. the leaf springs at the same time? I am happy about experiences and opinions on the topic, have no more slalom to drive Gulli lids

  • My special thanks to the cities and municipalities

    I would like to express my sincere thanks to the cities and municipalities. Unfortunately, it is no longer possible to move smoothly and, above all, quickly. It is only a ride from a red traffic light to the next… Stop & Go etc. Also bus stops Due to senseless development plans are no longer packed into a niche, but the bus stops in the middle of the road, so that the whole traffic behind the bus comes to an end. Does this type of traffic management belong to the often criticized pollution caused by vehicles? In this way, fuel consumption increases, but in the reverse, everyone shouts for more economical cars. The same applies to CO2 emissions. Thanks again for the fact that my fuel consumption and that of the others increases, the CO2 emissions are not throttled, but promoted and for that I and others should pay also about 5 € for one environment. environmental protection looks a little different for me.
