Re: Rear screen demister
Hello all out there.
I have a similar problem with my rear screen heater. It looks like someone has removed a company logo/sign with a sharp object and damaged the resistor (wires!) is there a repair kit to bridge the gap?
Thanx in advance.

Re: 130 tiptronic box in n out of limp mode

Have you done a scan on the car? if not it might be wort...

Hi Mindriot,
Just looked at the pictures of your estate, reall nice.
