yep got that, just braved the elements and got me handbook, so its the engine compartment first, then kick him over and if alls well will toast me first piece of bread on me hopefully working FBH exhaust
Will check under the bonnet this morning - if I have not got them liking the sound of the mod,sounds an easy fix. How easy to connect up to the D3 electrics?

Success!! Fuse looked ok, but I removed/replaced the relay and they now seem to be working in good order.
Fortunately it's -4 here this morning so it allowed me to suss things out pretty smartish.
Top tip lads.... this place is an oracle of information If in doot, flat oot!!

right that's me done, washer jets working (not heated I'm afraid) now that we've got a new fuse, when I looked in the BJB found the fuses in place for heated front and rear seats, and the relay, but no heated seats or buttons in the car nor evidence of any additional wiring loom under the seat, any pics of the wiring insitu in a d3 with them so that I can cross refference??
Gave the engine bay a quick clean along with the bonnet catches that had 260k miles worth of grease and building up !!
Now just need to confirm the Fuel burners working, stuck me hand under but the pipe was not hot but blowing out air of a warmish nature, fuse in the BJB was fine, did'nt take out the relay and check though

mine worked yesterday at -4 when i started the car but after 20miles of mway driving and temps reaching -6 they froze up. i have a 50/50 mix but the liquid seemed to be freezing as it left the washer jet and blocked the jet. at what point is the fluid heated.Duncan

Only the jets themselves appear to be heated.
Off to buy another 5L of concentrate.
