>We don't make reliable cars in GERMANY
Audi 4.2 V8. Had a 2007 S4. Chain guides went out at 90k. Chains are on the back of the motor so you have to pull it to replace the chains and guides. Pile of trash.
i had a 2015 Volkswagen Tiguan>headlight replacement - $1,200i switched to a 2015 Toyota Camry>headlight replacement - $200can someone explain
>>532196129Reliable things make less money
>>532196673krautism
>>5321966732008 toyota>bulb replacement: $1.20
>>532196673It's literally in the name anon. TOYota.
>>532196673już wyjaśniam: zostałeś oszwabiony, frajerze
>>532196129i had a pasat wagon all it needed was a water pump replaced. i walked into the shop after they started and it looked just like that. do they just make everything as unnecessarily complicated as possible on purpose?
>>532196673Do you really not change the bulbs yourself?
>>532196129but that is reliable. its not easily replaceable (which is what you mean) but its reliable.
>>532196129You don't need to make reliable cars.Everything that isn't a Honda or Toyota is just warning to people on what not to buy.
>>532196600This anon is correct. German cars are over-engineered. Besides chain problems, Audi had their own fluids, also their own oil . You couldn't just fill it with random OEM oil, the panel check engine light would start flushing. It would take only Audi approved specific type of oil .
>>532197190i think, he just crashes regularly into cars in front of him, due to short-sightedness which also explains him getting scammed by based krauts
German cars are so cool but they are such a fucking pain in the ass to have fixed.
>>532197190You can't. They sell them only as assemblies to be replaced in full.>>532196673 VW 2.0l tsi turbo is one of the worst engines ever made. Just sell it and cut your losses. It's not gonna get better. And VW is unfriendly to consumers. They want to require needing a scanner to change the brakes. The calipers will lock and you can't get the pads out without the computer to tell it to let go. t. former mechanic tired of all the chinesium parts
German cars are a meme based on old reliability stats to milk rich foreignerst. works in car industryBuy a jap car
>>532197375Theyre over engineered to be high performance. You cant make shitbucket drive smooth.
>>532197523now drive that jap steel trash can 200km/h on the Autobahn. You'll feel like your sitting in a massage chair at the airport.
>>532196673>i switched to a 2015 Toyota Camryyeah you sure did,they never sold this generation in eu
>>532197523German cars took a reliability hit back in the late 90’s.
>>532197523that's wholesome advice. i would consider korean cars also pretty good value. mass adoption by police and other authorities makes parts readily available and service low cost
>>532197407 >>532197598I had Audi and my woman had BMW x3 (she paid for it herself btw from her salary). Both cars are trash . German cars are fun to drive but they haven't been well engineered for literally DECADES . Don't fall for the meme from the 80-ies and 90-ies. I also know people whos woman bought x3 and had issues like mine.Know a guy who bought an x6 and then it was such a trash he sued BWM via a lemon law, and actually won (almost nobody does).Buy japanese cars.
>>532197523Why everyone in Germany drive german cars then?
>>532197629>200km/hBarely anyone drives fast nowadays when fuel is expensive as shitAlso too much demented vaxxies are driving around, you have to be very careful
>>532196129Can you explain why German cars make a satisfying heavy thud when you close the doors, whereas American and Japanese cars have a tinny hollow sound?
>>532197523This anon is correct. Listen to him .
funny how nobody says Mercedes Benz
>>532197818We are not as rich as albanians.
>>532197693Yeah Korea is also good, but they're missing the abooooow cars>>532197745They also fell for the meme, kek
>>532197753You are 100% some russian or turkish immigrant.Du labberst irgendeinen Scheiß nur sodass die Vollidioten hier dir so viele (you)s wie möglich geben.
>>532197523pretty much the same for everything.>look for a new kitchen knife>50 bucks for a german brand>25 bucks for a chinese one>buy both simply because I want to figure out how far the chinks have caught up in some areas>both basically the same>no flaws or rough edges or anything on the chink knife>just as sharp as the german one>kept using both for months and the chink one didn't dull any faster or anythingI'd prefer to buy Made in Germany, but by now, it's a fucking meme and all you would do is fuck yourself over financially for zero gain pretty sure that shit is 90% automated too, so even with the higher electricity prices, when you add shipping it across two continents onto the price of the chink knife there is no reason for the german one to be that expensive
>>532197745Germans at best drive audis but that's it, bmws are driven by young turks and mercedes is chosen by older turks, tho enough people still get brands that belong to one of their bigger groups
Had a vw Taureg, two years in started having problems, then yearly repairs afterwards. Total piece of shit. Have 3 Hondas now, none of them have issues (some recalls though)
>>532197229Except for the stretching and catastrophic engine damage sure.
>>532198019No, he's right. I also noticed an increase in accidents and reckless driving. If it's shitskins, vaxcattle or both I can't tell.
>>532198119another fake german. German cities especially welathy ones like Munich, Stuttgart, Frankfurt are full of BMW and Mercedes driven by middle class Germans and Bonzen.
>>532198019Wrong. Russians and Turks all drive german meme cars, kek
>>532198226You can't even drive 200km/h in most states anyway because the infrastructure is in such poor repair that all the construction sites (with zero workers present) lead to constant traffic jams you have to drive into the low pop states to be able to do that
>>532196129Only an idiot would buy a german car. I'd rather have french car. Luckily there is Volvo.
>>532196129You guys always make it sound like the autobahn is littered with broken down German cars left and right. Well, it isn't. Wtf are doing to our cars?
>>532196600I had the same issue with my m3. Fucking timing chain guide was made out of plastic and snapped, and then blocked my oil sump. I used to think germanoids were actually competent
>>532198245German cars are brown coded with the exception of VW
>>532196129wrong board FAGGOT >>>/o/
>>532196673>Volkswagen Tiguanick!
>>532198226blatant lie. see picand as if Germany has suddenly seen more shitskins and foreigners driving on German roads. Its been a mongrel invaded country for decades.
>>532198242All leasing cars they get from their employer. No sane person would buy one of their newer model themselves
AL HAMDULILAH MY BROTHERS
>>532198305more lies. go back to Serbia, Russia, Albania or whatever shithole youre inbred parents came from.
>>532196129I love this little German nigga like you wouldn't believe. Nearly 8 years old and still works like it did day one.
>>532198019>>532198242>>532198380You are completely right and Based. Die anderen zwei müssen irgendeine Art von Untermensch seien, die ständig wegen Deutschland weinen
>>532198420brudda
>>532198333CheckedYou have to differentiateGermany has one of the oldest car fleets in western countries. The old(er) German cars up until around 2010 are good, extreme planned obsolescence started around 2010.Since then it's extreme and most anons complaining about shit cars are having cars from that period on because they all prefer newer cars.We all still see a lot of Mark III's driving around, these old ones are basically undestructable
>>532198511>burger wants to explain my country to meSpreng dich weg, du armseliger Versager.Niemanden interessierts ob du 5% Deutsch bist und vor 12 Jahren mal das Oktoberfest besucht hast.
>>532198381>All leasing cars they get from their employeryes, you nigger, many people get benefits from their companies to buy a "work car" to get to and from work. WOW! amazing revelation you brought there. People get their financing from their job.
>>532198019>I'm 1/86th German>let me tell you about your country >Also immigrants DO NOT increase crash rates!You're seething and you're brown.
My woman's X3 had a bunch of electrical leaks, common to BMW. In winter she'd get out on Monday to go to work, and cars battery is dead. Or she'd be at work and her car randomly is dead and needs a jump start. We traded it for a Toyota Rav4, upgraded model. After I added minor stuff to Rav4 , such as better speakers, mirror , quieter tires etc. This RAV4 was much better than X3. It would start anywhere in any weather, guaranteed.
>>532198549I have a mk8 from 2021 and its insane how bad it is, all the electrics are broken/failing I think VW started cutting even more corners after dieselgate to recover costs
>>532198312French cars aren't even hiding how trash they are so that's a plus over German cars.
>>532198586>many people get benefits from their companies to buy a "work car" to get to and from workThat's not how car leasing in germoney works silly burger
>>532196600Used a fucking plastic tensioner or guide too if I’m not mistaken.
>>532196600>>532198338I had the same issue with my Audi R8
>>532197504Had a 2.0 tsi turbo and it was a nightmare
>>532196129Inline 6 forever!
>>532198380You realize covid was 5 years ago now and that the shitskin infestation really started going about 10 years ago? That pic is completely worthless because 2018-2020 would be where the shitskin infestation becomes noticeable and 2022 where the vaxcattles brain degradation would become visible.
>>532196129Mercedes are/were generally pretty reliable.VWs are total shit.
>>532198531
>>532198583bin 100% deutsch im Vergleich zu dir der nur nen Pass von Mama Merkel geschenkt bekommen hat>>532198604kys ranjeet, go die in another trucking accident
>>532198737Based
>>532198651Let me explain whyIt's related to inflation.A Mark7 in 2018 at release cost around 25k$. Gold back then was 1200$. In Gold the cost was 20 ouncesNowadays a Mark8 is 30k$, whereas Gold is around 5000$, which means you pay 6 ounces.As we all learned in the SETF threads Gold is the baseline of prices, which means cars nowadays are cheap af which shows in the quality
>>532198737>im Vergleich zu dirYou aren't German at all. You're some Amerimutt thinking he's German because he can shit out some broken sentences, that's about it.Contrary to you, my family has lived here for centuries and continues to live here.Now shoo shoo, there's dying for Israel to be done.
>>532198718>the shitskin infestation really started going about 10 years agoonly someone born in the 2000s would think this.Was 2015 the first time you moved into the city from your Kaffdorf?Germany has been overrun by immigrants sine the 1960s and it is a steady stream of worse and worse. nothing new.
>>532196673My dad had a Tuareg.The dealer wanted everything to cost 4 digits each.I just went online, ordered knockoff parts from an Italian site for 40-200 bucks each and replaced parts myself.Engine was not something I could handle though, but he had a friend with a shop who could handle most of it.
>>532198689This is the way>JZ>B58>N54>S4
>>532198737how did you get citizenship/greencard as a german?They don't do that in america
>>532196600My 2007 Ford uses a Duratec 3.0 v6 with chain based timing. It has 175K miles on it. Never replaced anything timing related and still runs like the day I got it. Hell I barely change the oil in the poor thing. >Forced obsolescence through mal-engineering
>>532198893S54 oops
>>532198651>I have a mk8 from 2021 and its insane how bad it is, all the electrics are broken/failingThis. Majority of German cars have electrical problems or electrical leaks that cause issues.
>>532198818>Contrary to you, my family has lived here for centuries and continues to live here.yet you hate Germany and Germans. Got it. I will now stop thinking you are a brown skinned immigrant mutt.
>>532198818Holy fuck, the shitskin just outed himself. „Im Vergleich zu dir“ is correct btw, you dumbfuck
>>532198737>bin 100% deutschLol he did the thing
>>532197523german quality wasn't a meme until recently but now it has been hollowed out thanks to stocks and the government and yes, japan is pretty much the only place left where they still think they will go out of business if people don't like quality anymore
>>532198973>Muh you hate Germany>Moves to the USYeah i hear you
I have a 1999 Honda CRV (my beater) and a 1998 Toyota RAV4 (minty, fresh paint, lifted, wheels, tires, 85k).I’m riding nicer than any of you.
From what I gather that would be a reasonable reliable engine if the jews hadn't used plastic chain tensioners.>mixing plastic and hot engine oil, what could possibly go wrong
>>532199028>>532198800
>>532198818>>532198837People tend to forget that the US Republican party who had a very big hand in structuring how Germany does things, were all-in on "migrant labor keeps costs down and allows rebuilding faster" so Germany had a lot of migrants since forever as far as most are concerned.
>>532197523you people eat your own shit
>>532198837I live in a big city in NRW. Parts of it were shitskin run places since the 90s. It only started in 2015 that all of them save for the most costly became shitskin run.
>>532198800I want the 90s/00s back when cars weren’t pozzed to shithttps://youtu.be/QXe7bFmQvRA
>>532198973>You hate GermanyKek, it is an objective fact that the infrastructure is in poor repair. Just google it, surely you're capable of that.
>>532198025the german knife has to pay for shitskin invaders and boomer pensions
>>532197626>1938
>>532199028German quality is mostly alright still, but the price-tag that gets slapped onto it is a meme for sure.You can get good quality products for much less.
>>532199081Me tooWas thinking about establishing a car company somewhere in the non pozzed world that remakes the great old cars>E30>E36>E46>Porsche 993>Sport Quattro>190 EvoAnd so on in license building for reasonable prices
>>532199123You aren’t even able to google simple German grammar. Geh dich erhängen, Du dreckiger Bastard
>>532199070exactly. The push for more foreign laborers came from American pressure even when faced stiff resistance claiming turks are too alien and will never integrate; which is exactly the case +60 years later.>>532199078its definitely gotten worse, but its only a matter of degree at this point, and NRW was the spearhead of this along with Stuttgart and Frankfurt probably. Now all of West Germany is like NRW in the 90s at a minimum.
>>532196129put a gun in your mouthand pull the trigger
>>532199123>it is an objective fact that the infrastructure is in poor repairIt can always use improvements and construction sites last too long, but unlike you I know almost every foreign country is in a worse state than Germany when it comes to road infrastructure. (rail is a different topic)
>>532197130Kaizen motherfucker.
>>532199238>but its only a matter of degree at this point,That doesn't mean that the "matter of degree" isn't very clearly visible in daily life such as a general shift in driving behavior. I'm not sure if you agree with me or what you're trying to argue.
>>532199146Maybe, but even then - companies absolutely love lobbying for illegal invaders, blowing up functional power plants, more and more bureaucratic regulations, higher taxes on the population (but not them) and so on. The unions are also spending half their time on lobbying for illegals nowadays.That is still a consequence of how they run their businesses.If they told the libshit politicians to go and fuck themselves, none of this would have happened. Politicians hold no real power, they are a parasitic class. If those who actually produce wealth had withdrawn their support, it would have ended the parties easily.But the companies were in on it because it allowed them to dictate part of the new laws and shape them in their favor (but against the population).
>>532199310>but unlike youYou seem to be under some serious delusions here. I actually live in Germany, you don't. Even some shitskin living here would know more about Germany than you do, since you're on the other side of the planet.
>>532196673You just got jew'd
>>532199238>The push for more foreign laborers came from...the government to save the failing pension systems because there aren't enough children born to upkeep itBut the shitskins don't work and just want gibs, kek
>>532197504>You can't. They sell them only as assemblies to be replaced in full.Wrong.https://youtu.be/58QvrdFweoA?si=_Rh-QIcrrTr-Ly_N
>>532199373spot on. corporate/business interests are what drive politics. revolutions, war, bailouts, floods of shitskins, etc, all happen because corporate interests demand it
My Golf Mk5 still holds on but I wish the wiring was less fragile
>>532196129>images (1) (1) (5).jpgJesus
>>532199494>the government to save the failing pension systems because there aren't enough children born to upkeep itthat started after population growth collapsed in the 70s.> But the shitskins don't work and just want gibs, kekShitskin poors are a valid excuse for governments to print money. It is one of the only ways to """""grow"""" GDP in a country like Germany these days. Even if they dont work their subhuman existence as toddlers for the state creates GDP.Its so kiked its insane.Btw, native Germans cant get this because that would be inflationary. Just look at how much the German state spends a year to provide housing to all the ukies, mudshits and niggers who arrived in the last 2 decades alone. And it never gets brought up, even by the jewish-ziggers AfD.
>>532198800Because of this fact the cars get engineered to last for the leasing and warranty periods of around three years, after which they start falling apart. Germans and Europoors have no moneys to buy new cars so new cars are being sold as company leasing cars.Ask anyone who fell for a German meme car from around 2020 onwards
>>532199773>Money printingWhich only fortifies the problem, see >>532198800 and >>532199825
>>532196129>pay 5x cost>get 1/3 expectationstypical white european begging bowl economics
>>532199825your tanks were like that in the 1940s too. The mercedes hl430 v12 and its gearbox were infamous for breaking down all the time. Lmao nothing has changed.
>>532196129<< this is the correct way
>>532199569The most obvious example of it was the EV shit for sure. Half the car industry was almost cooming itself to death at the thought of banning ICEs and forcing a whole continent to swap out their fleet.Now they are sitting on a stockpile of shit no one wants and a product for which they can't even procure any resources until they bend the knee to China.It is seriously fucking them over because at least this one single time, they pushed the envelope too far and tried to rob people with a scam people will simply answer with "no".I feel a bit sorry for all the smaller suppliers who were just providing parts to the big manufacturers, but the big ones definitely deserve everything that's coming for them.

>>532200554>Ignoring the rust buckets of around 2000
>>532200493They are great if you have your own house, preferably even with solar panels, and generally do not drive all that far in one sitting (even then they are a bit pricey).They are inferior to ICEs for basically everyone else, which is the majority.

>>532197681I'd say things in Germany started going downhill in 1945
>>532197760Used to be German cars framed the window even on the low end and American cars didn’t. Now a BMW 3 series sounds like shit when you close the doors and many Jap cars at the same pricepoint frame the window.

>>532196129>yo dawg we heard you liked timing chains
>>532201370I think it's more of a case of normalfags not even being able to fall for it this time, kek.The majority of them cannot afford one, the prices are too high.The majority are rentoids who cannot simply plug it in at night to ensure it's ready in the morning when they need to go to work.They cannot really rely on public infrastructure to charge it (and just get up earlier to eat the time hit) because it is/was too sparse.It's a product that provides no real benefits over their current car while coming with a lot of disadvantages.They would have absolutely fallen for it otherwise, but in this case it was not even possible. As if you tried to sell gloves to someone who has no hands.
>>532196129
>>532197375>>532197739>>532197765>>532198632>>532198950Look at this "burger"s English. Learn to spot a shill. Probably Russian
>>532196129Why do people bitch about belts so much when chains can cost like triple or quadruple to replace while only doubling the lifespan? Fuck chains.
>>532202191lol, its not 2015 anymore.
>>532196129Post the full image. German cars are a pain the ass to work on compared to American cars. Nothing beats the simplicity of a naturally aspirated pushrod engine.
>>532197130meanwhile in burgerville
>>532200941yes. Now they use cucked v6 engines
>>532196129Good quality these days means nothing should break until after a specified time, then everything should break down or stop working at the same time. This is what every brand is going for these days, with varying success, but it is not the way older cars used to be made.
>85 mpg (3L per 100km) if you ride it smoothly>50 hp, enough to carry a passenger at highway speeds>cheap to maintain and extremely reliable>cheap to buy>can skip traffic jams and you can park it anywhere>it's fun to ride and will get you pussytake the bikepill anons
That engine is missing a chain.
>>532196129OP pic is autistic retardation. Picrel is genius engineering.
>>532196673>can someone explainAmerica took over german car industry in the 1990s and introced american management and american value engineering. Quality quickly went to shit. In Sweden, SAAB was destroyed by GM, and Volvo by Ford, and the wreck of Volvo was sold to China.
>>532197327Toyota and Honda are both garbage for the past few years. VVT, turbo'd small displacement, EGR, dohc, CVT, you name it. Literal piles of junk. But this is what happens when you get hung up on makers and brands etc.
>>532196600Should have bought an S5 with the updated chain guide. Perfection
>>532196129I had a 40yo german car with chain guide. 'It was virtually indestructible. I sold it to Africa. I think some nig is still chilling with this car somewhere.
>>532203828In the the 1990s the US was making the 5.7 vortec which (despite a few imperfections here and there) was probably better than anything being made from a mass production standpoint in all of europe.
>>532203864and yet my integra with a stick mogs anything ive seen and someone just got a type s in my area so i get wet when i see it
>>532203742at least it's a fucking chain. also that has nothing to do with accessibility and ease of disassembly which is where the Germans fuck up. I think they like turning bolts so much, it doesn't bother them to take things apart and put them back together. Everyone praises jap cars, but they work until they don't. They get by on quality of parts, but if one thing breaks, they don't account for that in design. my Honda still has a valve adjustment procedure that most people don't know exists when reading online. Older American cars just assume everything is out of spec and close enough. New stuff is a mix of global, cheap design.
>>532196129I remember having a bmw where every time I got my oil changed, they needed to remove the air filter housing to reach the oil filter. I ended up getting into a fender bender that totalled the car. I'm never buying german trash again.
>>532204372Lmfao. Jokes aside, here is a short list a vehicle needs to not be gay>ladder frame>solid front axle>gear driven t-case>carb>leaf springs all around.
>>532204454A regular person should be able to do everything on a vehicle with minimal equipment with the exception of regearing a differential, rebuilding a transfer case, and opening up a transmission.This is the bare minimum for a vehicle to even be in the conversation as a good automobile.
>>532196129Aby Europoor import I've ever worked on were hunks of shit.
>>532204644yes i have a f150 xtr too, but im pretty into dudes my guy
>>532196129I had a crv that ran for 250,000 miles of hauling shit to schools, moves, and in winter, then I got a rav4 that’s on 60 so far with pretty much zero serious problems
>>532196129For some reason literally every piece of tech made in Germany is like this. Where Chinese use a plastic hoop, Germans use at least ten separate parts for fuck know why
>>532198378that nigga got legs like me
>>532204821No solid front axle. Gay ass IFS. Every engine option is varying degrees "junk". Fuel injection. Awful Ford 10-speed. What were you thinking?
>>532205092that its a truck for business and when i drive through a field i dont care, do you use your vehicles at all lmfao, its the smol eco v6 too because i only haul rarely30k for an aluminum crewcab is fair for a farm truck
>>532205233Eco v6. IFS. Cam phasing. Turbos. No solid front axle. No carbeurator. It has a PCM.
>>532205586lol sounds like you have a fetish for tractorslet me guess, u drive a ram 2500
>>532196129works in my caralso unless you import directly from germany your "german car" is mexican or chinese made
>>532202884Making fun of the left yet the moron who owns it is a maga fag
>>532206236What
>>532196129was it autism?
>>532203416what if it rains?
>>532196600Came here to say this. FPBP
>>532196673Youre polish and biased.
Just buy an EV. Battery make car go
Toyota fell off sometime in the early 2010s my Supra has coolant pissing out of the OFH and it's a 6 hour job to replace due to the obscene amounts of piping in the way
>>532197629My civic is on rails at 200kmh, what kind of crack are you smoking Pedro?
>>532196673jeep, purchase part on amazon, did myself $59.54
>>532196129Honestly the only cars I’ve had problems with were German, definitely not as reliable as Japanese cars.
>>532196129Holy shit!This picture may give me nightmares.I just finished the timing belt replacement on a Subaru 2.5i I picked up, I thought it has a difficult timing arrangement. My only frame of reference is other Asian cars.The simplest timing arrangement I've worked is on a sohc Toyota 22r
>>532203262keked, sniffing thinner its a thing around here for drug addicts who are poor... also yellow glue
>>532199914Altrough you low IQ shitskin can't conceive something complex as this...
>>532196129its complicated german engineering and you do make a lot of kW out of smaller displacement, in that example a 4.0L v8 for 373kW but a non-complicated stock turbo'd LS engine you can make 521kW stock and your grandma could service it so I'd take American everyday cause that shit just looks dumb expensive
>>532196129I have a second-hand 2017 BMW. supposedly not reliable according to 4chan poorfags.didn't have to repair a single thing yet, just usual maintenance.ADAC stats also say BMW and Porsche are very reliable.
>>532198333probably low quality Mexican makes, bad maintenance or straight up lies.I could never make sense of people here shitting on German cars.
>>532196129>all that plasticgross>>532196674DING! DING! DING! DING! WE GOT A WINNER, TPBP
>>532208701forgot pic
>>532197523you got data to back that up, you nigger?ADAC Pannenstatistik doesn't agree with you.
>>532197190How do you reset the OEM bulb chip? You need a VW computer(c) to reset the Bulb Usage Control and Safety Module.
>>532196673YOU THINK THATS BAD? Porsche wanted $900+ tax to give me a replacement car key after my puppy chewed mine up. I sold my Porsche shortly thereafter out of disgust. I think the keys are like $1,400 now
>>532207838Germans would rather have their daughter raped by Abdul than admit EV is better than their most modern and best ICE since they invested at least 50 years of their industry and skills to make it, they formed their economy around exporting ICE cars and these 1000 parts for themBut EV just go not even the stupid brrrr noise it just goesNo German can make a batteryThe Lithium batter confuses and enrages the G*rman
>>532197598>Theyre over engineered to be high performance.Bro S series Audis are getting blown off the road by factory F150s. Yes, a half ton pickup with an optional factory supercharged Coyote is faster in the quarter than a $130,000 RS7 Performance.>muh road courseThe $90,000 difference would build a hell of a suspension and, bonus, the 5.0 actually reliable. I used to love Audis but they're junk anymore.
>>532208701>>532209043Bruce gets it.
>>532198226>No, he's right. I also noticed an increase in accidents and reckless driving. If it's shitskins, vaxcattle or both I can't tell.Its the vaxx. Its happening in Sweden too. A friend complained a lot about bad drivers and I asked him if it always was like this and he said it began in the last years. I then told him that I have read the very same reported by foreign motorists. My guess is that they have subclinical dementia from microcapillar clots in the brains. And that arterial cast thing, where amyloid plaque builds up on the inside of the blood vessels.
>>532196129>be Volvo >make pretty much the definition of no-frills>solid, dependable, safe>get bought by chinks>>now some of the shittiest cars on the roadmakes me sad :(
>>532209396Yeah because ADAC isn't pozzed like the whole german car magazine shit which always roots for German cars. It's all fake and gay and they write pro German car makers because of ad revenue. If you want honest reviews look outside of Germany.Also ask every Audi/BMW/VW/Mercedes owner of a car made in 2020+
>>532209396Here it isThe lower the better
>>532211330Fuck Volvo is even worse now.. who the fuck could've guessed putting a 1.6 litre twin charged hybrid engine into a 2.5 ton iPad was a shit idea
>>532211684Volvo is chink now, discard.Also fun fact: I had that Mark2 in exact that color.45HP 1.0LI could walk faster but it was somewhat fun
>>532206004Worse, a Chevy square body. Garbage all around
>>532196600imagine paying that much for a sports car that doesn't have an engine with geared timing...
>>532198940I've had two, one got to 200k miles after being hit and ran by a shaqueefa, then a biker pulled infront of me and finished it off.Got another with 160k miles, check your brake caliper pistons, they are bad in these fords other than that engines pretty strong, just gotta do some minor tuning.
>>532211794I've got a couple of pre-china Volvos and they're awesome. It just sucks to watch all these great brands get blacked/chinked/jeeted/woman'd.I just want a big chunky 5, 6 or 8 cylinder my mates and I can pull apart in a weekend, not something I need an electrical engineering degree to troubleshoot
Germany lost the war based on their automotive failures. It’s that simple. They were stuck with horses and the tanks were out of gas, while Americans drove over their dead bodies and even the dumbest jarhead could fix the trucks. All of their engineers they had left went into automotive and they still can’t design anything that can touch the LS motor. Try and get really antisemitic and throw a carb on that monstrosity, you can’t.
>>532211330Aren't most of the complaints about dumb shit like "iphone wont sync when car starts up"
>>532196673>can someone explainVW is the most indebt company on the planet.
>>532196673western taxes for Israel
>>532212153>they still can’t design anything that can touch the LS motorThey've designed multiple engines that shit all over the LS on a spreadsheet. In the real world they're overly complicated.A base LS is something like 270hp from 5.7L, they're pretty unremarkable, but they're so bulletproof you can crank that number up a long way before you start bending the pushrods.A 4.2 Audi V8 is 340hp standard but if you do much more than put an intake on it you'll be launching valves into low earth orbit.
>>532203864what car can you vouch for that is not < 2015?
>>532198365bro all nafris drive with VW here, the exception is actually Opel
>>532198940Hello fellow Duratec having Chad. Most based engine platform.
>>532196129>images (1) (1) (5).jpg
>>532196600My A4 blew up around 100k miles. Biggest pile of garbage I ever owned.
>>532212153Actually, the old inline 6 Mercedes engines. They're the most reliable platform ever built. Obviously not as much fun as an LS but the Germans -can build simple & reliable when they want to.
>>532212515That’s because I was referring to the 2000’s truck motors that everyone swaps in for low end torque and towing. GM just got real German on everyone with the zr1x and beat the Porsche on their own track at their own game, and spanked the demon 170 on the straights too. 1250hp with a warranty and a mid 8’s 1/4 mile is nuts.
>>532196129No why would they? When they mass imported Gastarbeiter who never left, you were supposed to notice shitskins destroy whatever they are near.
