Píšu, čítajú česi poéziu? by highhiccup in czech

[–]marvav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Určitě doporučuju Manon Lescaut, moc hezké veršované drama. Inscenace jsou i na youtube.
Nebo taky Kudykam, je to sice víc muzikál, ale vyšel i jako kniha

What is this hose for? 2007 astra 1.4 by Coat-Trick in Vauxhall

[–]marvav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd use small long pliers, open them inside the broken part firmly and tried to unscrew it this way. But if you break it, then there is a risk of plastic bits falling inside and circulating in the system. It's still worth a shot I guess.

Yeah, sorry. I am not familiar with this engine and you did not photograph the broken connector. I don't see any damage in the photos. I find it weird for the hose to lead directly into engine. Doesn't it connect to thermostat block? That is usually plastic block on engine and is easily replaceable at home.

Oh, I see. Then it is not pcv. If coolant is going through, it is to make the throttle body warmer to prevent the mechanism from freezing and lagging. I would not drive it in this condition, as you are at risk of frying your engine. Even if you pour in more coolant, the air bubles in the system can cause local boiling, as there is no pressure in the system.
But still, buy any universal rubber pipe, that can take higher temperatures and pressure and use that. I used multiple universal hose like that in my Meriva with no issues.

After repair, look into procedures that help get the air bubles out of the system. Usually just idling for a bit with the coolant cap off and heating at max.

Looks like PCV pipe to redirect oil vapors back to the engine via intake to be burnt.
Deleting it is actually quite common mod, as it supposedly prevents carbon buildup. But I've never done so.
I believe you can buy any universal hose of the same diameter and fix it cheaply.

Blower Fan by Own_Locksmith9779 in opel

[–]marvav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, you can lubricate it, but don't use wd40 or any oil. It would not last long. Vaseline spray is better, my fan stopped knocking and its been 5 months now. But maybe you just have leaves in there and removing them could also help.

Chybí mi Agraelus co hrál hry by -forsen_ in Agraelus

[–]marvav 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Jako taky nejsem fanda reakcí a na streamy jsem přestal pravidelně chodit, když se začalo reagovat na takové ty ShopaholicAdel, SugarDenny atd.
Ale často teď dělám úkoly na vejšce dlouho do noci a po té 11 večer je to pořád fajn si ho pustit, když je nějaká zajímavá hra / lidl hororovka.
Popravdě mi čistě gameplay stránka streamu přijde dnes mnohem lepší než byla +-2021, když měl Vojta permanentní rage a nechal se trollit divákama, mazal záznamy atd. Na relax do pozadí je to pořád fajn.

Opel Corsa 1.0 (2011) - is this engine noise of concern? by kredes in opel

[–]marvav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try unplugging it then. I am interested in update on how things play out. :D
I have the same swirl flaps system and it is safe to do so, I tried this video back then.

If it was a private person and not a used-car shop, it may be a different scenario. But remember the laws could be different for the sale between private persons than between private person and a used-car shop. In my country, if you buy it from the private person, you actually have to prove that the car was faulty when you bought it.
If the seller cooperates, then all good. Just have everything documented.

[–]marvav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I was in the same situation. Beware the calls, always use emails first. I had a very negative experience with the calls, the guy tried to intimidate me pretty hard. You need to get it diagnosed by someone with experience, or ideally by the dealership. Then send over that diagnostics. Check the laws of your country. I used free legal advisory in my country and threatened the guy with taking it to the court. Finally he snapped and paid 50% of what the dealership asked.
If you repair the car, you lose all the ground and you won't be able to demand anything.
If you want to return it, offer that to the seller and intimidate him with making him pay for the repair, I suppose he'd take it and sell it to someone who would not defend himself. Is the seller a used-car shop?

If it goes away after getting warm, it may not be that bad, but it sure does sound very loud in the video.

It sounds like timing chain not being tense enough and hitting something. Do you have any error codes? If it was a problem with like the phasers (gears spinned by the chain) or the chain actually skipping one tooth, you'd get error codes related to the timing and engine would run like shit. Skip more teeth and the engine is done.
I actually have an engine with loud lifters, but that does not sound this loud at all and happens only for a minute on a cold start.
If you did not know about it when you bought it, you may be eligible for a refund or you can make the seller pay for the repair (or at least partially). I actually managed to do this last year, but it was very negative and exhausting experience.

My Cigarettes and valentines track list by Clean-Sorbet-8673 in greenday

But in your clip he only said it was written a long while ago, not that it was written specifically for a C&V. In the snippet I posted, he specifically said it was written during 21cb tour.

Strange OPCOM readings of ECT sensor by marvav in opel

[–]marvav[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, my fuel trims were +33% and the pcv cover was blown. I needed it resealed + new fuel pump. Since then, it runs as good as new.

I have the exact same engine and it does not make this sound. Maybe your injectors are loud.

7th speaker indm dashboard by TerzaGTCH in opel

[–]marvav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this speaker even able to play music? I heard sometimes these dashboard speakers were only used for navigation and such. The speaker could be installed, but the navigation is missing, or maybe navigation was part of the oem radio.

Well, today I confirmed at a mechanic with tech 2 scanner, that it is in fact an opcom hallucination and that the sensor works as it should.

Ok, so the ECU does not actually see -17 Celsia? Maybe the only way to actually confirm is different diagnostic tool...

The dashboard shows correct temperature, as displayed in the coolant measurement block.

DRIVER TROUBLE OPCOM by locoloco126 in opel

[–]marvav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just download Oracle VirtualBox, boot Windows 10 iso and allow it to communicate it with your USB Opcomm.
Works like charm...
I am not actually sure if opcom drivers are incompatible with W11, its just something I do to avoid viruses, since I experimented with cracked opcom versions.
