Re: [Quantum Owners] FW: Quantum 2+2 weight

2021-09-24 Thread Darren Siepka
My old testing station use to put in 850kg after asking me the weight as it
didn't have it shown, then when they upgraded the test bay it actually
weighed the car during the test and used that subject to a correction
factor so I was told.

I’m with Jim here. The tested has always wellied it down the yard and
stomped on the brakes on Kermit.

Re: [Quantum Owners] FW: Quantum 2+2 weight

2021-09-24 Thread Jim Hearne
I thought if they didn’t know the spec for the car they are supposed to test 
the brakes on a road test with the inertia tester in the footwell.
That’s how my 2+2 has always been tested.

Is Dominic in the group or, Jan, are you forwarding the replys ?

An interesting one. When I took my Q saloon for IVA they came up with a weight 
of around 1200kg (figure may be on copy of MAC?), this was with the car wheels 
revolving and didn’t seem particularly accurate as the vehicle was pitching up 
and down all the time.  I was able to use corner weight at a Ford facility and 
the total was 870kg (seems about correct c/f Q brochure). I think it’s come up 
with vastly different weights when it had been MOT’d on rollers that supposedly 
measure the weight. This doesn’t help Dominic’s case, but gives some insight.

  Hi Jan, 



  I wonder if someone in the owners club can help me with a technical issue. 



  My car has failed the M.O.T test due to brakes as the tester has applied 100% 
lockup values to the brake test as he does not know the weight of the vehicle. 
I’ve gone over the model details but cannot find the relevant information so I 
was hoping someone in the club may know the weight of a 2+2 fitted with an XR2

  Thanks in advance for any assistance.

 Subject: Quantum 2+2 weight 

Hi Jan, 
 
I wonder if someone in the owners club can help me with a technical issue.

 
My car has failed the M.O.T test due to brakes as the tester has applied 100% 
lockup values to the brake test as he does not know the weight of the vehicle. 
I’ve gone over the model details but cannot find the relevant information so I
 was hoping someone in the club may know the weight of a 2+2 fitted with an XR2 
CVH engine.

 
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
 
-Dom
