Changed the plug wires and air filter yesterday and noticed the short rubber hose that's coming out of the passenger side valve cover going into the air intake is falling apart. Can anyone tell me what it's exactly for and what problems this could have caused? I wrapped some tape around it for...

Its a '95 LSC, not sure if there are any differences between them?

Error codes say my abs pump motor in my '95 LSC is dead, anyone got one for sale for a reasonable price that worked before?

Is that ABS pump still for sale, and did it actually work before?

Nobody got any idea? Did the inspection today, no problems at all with the car (except some missing bull**** permissions/datasheets that are required in this country for no good reason) except the CO value in the emissions test which was too high at raised RPM. (was about 0.6%, should be below...

Yeah, I just wanna make sure thats its not anything simple that wouldnt really require any money/time to fix. So I changed the plugs today, took the old ones out and replaced them with new NGKs. While the old plugs looked pretty nasty it didnt seem to do much of a difference otherwise. Plug...

Also, the main reason for that seafoam treatment and oil change was a "knocking" sound that developed over the last couple of months. I didn't move the car a lot so it was just standing around most of the time. I fired it up once in a while tho and drove it for a mile or so just to make sure...

Ah alright, I guess it still sucked air into the engine that shouldn't be there though. The right end of the line is directly connected to a much larger line that went right into the intake manifold. The thing is, we used this line to suck some of the seafoam into the engine like you are...

Alright, picked up the car on Tuesday, the shop did a brilliant job repairing the dent and repainting the area, impossible to tell that someone bumped into the car. With the help of a friend I changed the oil and filter today. Getting the filter out and a new one on wasnt as hard as expected...

Hm, laut StVO müssen die Blinker an einem nicht-beweglichen Teil sein, d.h. Rückfahrscheinwerfer an der Kofferraumklappe geht eigendlich nicht.:confused: Der Abschlepphaken steht da auch drin. Ja, schraube soll am stecker sein.

Haha danke. Wann hattest du deinen Mark VIII importiert? Leider bin ich immernoch dabei einzelne Dinge umzuruesten (Blinker, Standlicht, Abschlepphaken unter dem Auto). Da ich immer nur mal ne Woche in Deutschland bin und es oft paar Monate dauert bis ich wieder da bin verzoegert sich das alles...

Seems like hasn't been on this board since he moved over to the UK in early September. Anyone talked to him since then or has an Email address?

Sry fuer die spaete Antwort, habe leider keine Ahnung wie man das Radio raus bekommt. Der Schalter zum Abschalten des Luftfahrwerks ist hinten im Kofferraum auf der linken Seite hinter dem, kleinen Tuerchen. Weiss nicht ob du irgendeinen Stecker ziehen musst soweit ich weiss ist das aber nicht...

So wie es ausschaut sind die 325$ nur für sein set da es gebraucht angeboten wird, weiß nicht ob du bei strutmasters noch bisschen verhandeln kannst. Er hatte sich das set eigendlich auch nur gekauft weil er dachte dass es etwas tiefer ist als das normale, scheint aber in dem Fall die gleiche...

Keine Ahnung was ein Schraderventil ist, das wurde mir so übersetzt. Scheint einfach ein Verbindungsstückl zu sein dass du in das Luftfeder-ventil stecken kannst, dann kannst du den Kompressor mit nem alten Stück Schlauch auch ausgebaut direkt ans Ventil anschließen und prüfen ob es noch...
