nope, i am 100% satisfied and happy now dude, i would happily say this car is superior to anyting i've ever driven! 


I hate to say I told you so  :evil:.... Well I suppose i did say it was an ed30 originally but still a bit of gti acceleration cures everything! It is without doubt the best car I have driven too! And as others have said the enjoyment doesn't fade either so you will be feeling like this for a long time!

to deactivate auto wipers just make sure the lever is set to the most bottom (grammar?) setting.

to put wiipers back on auto push the lever up one notch.

That is assuming you have the lights set to AUTO.

You don't need the lights to be on 'auto' for the rain sensing wipers to work.  :wink:

thanks guys, so its related to the auto lights too  :smiley:

Not really.  Whilst they both use the same combined 'light and rain sensor', they both work in different ways.

I think i'll settle for some phillips power bulbs onstead of HID's he he.  :wink:

How many thumbwheels do you have to the left of your lightswitch?

1) An internet cable coming out of their dash?
2) a small square black box about the same size as the golfs key remote? its stuck on my dash and doesn't look like its gonna move, i guess it could be some kind of antenna? but for what?
3)a small black thing near the rear view mirror, it has a window sucker and looks like there are 4 dark-red/semi see-through circles on there like some kind of sensor for something, this thing was hanging down from the top of the windscreen this morning and i had to re-apply the sucker.

Pics would help.

Could 2 and 3 be related to an aftermarket bluetooth handsfree phone kit?

hi, took some photos...

To Teutonic_Tamer:

I have two toggle bars next to the light switch, one with numbers 1-3 and one with a bar that goes from thin to thick, is that the auto headlight lowering sensor required to legally fit HID's?

here are the photo's sorry my cam is pretty cheap...



it looks like some kind of reciever or signal enhancer. any ideas?



thats an internet cable but if i plug my laptop into it what am i connecting to exactly?



that is the thing thats suckered on to my windscreen and i have no idea what it is. it is connected by a thin cable.



this is a side view of the mysterious sucker thing.

So can anyone tell me what these things are for? i do have a parrot connected to the stereo if that helps, i would rip the internet cable out but i dont want it messing anything up. im learning loads just by being on this forum so thanks guys  :wink:
