Re: Scirocco Tax Disc Holders

The first one (showing the car) is available in a number of colours.

Scirocco Tax Disc Holders

These tax discs appeared in another forum and are probably worthy of a wider audience. A very cheap and attractive mod. :thumbup: Style 1 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260559189673" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Style 2 http://www.google.co.uk/pro...

Re: Controlling iPod from steering wheel?

Yes. Just use the up and down arrows on the steering wheel to move forward or back a track. I believe ka1875 is aware of that, I think what he means is can you select albums or artists using the steering wheel buttons. As far as I know you can only use the buttons to move between tracks on an album...

Re: Courtesy Car Policy?

You're lucky, at least you are getting a car.

A colleague of mine at work recently took his 2 year old 330d in to have a blown turbo replaced only to find out that the dealer no longer supplied courtesy cars due to the economic climate.

Also, according to the UK manual: Those with Xenons can turn off their dedicated DRLs with the indicator stalk method - indicator stalk pushed down (as if indicating left) and pulled towards you (like flashing a high beam) for 3 seconds when the ignition is put on (but not the engine). Turn the ign...
