i am not talking abut the grilles that can be adjusted ... I am talking about the ones that are next to the ignition key.
so what are my other options here in Greece, for enabling the codes ? i was thinking of the official dealer. do you think I should try to an aftermarket shop that cooperates with the official dealer ?J.p

That's the interior cabin temperature sensor, used by the climate control to know how hot it is inside the D3 2006 Discovery 3 TDV6 SE AutoBuckingham Blue 2007 Golf GT DSG

JP - forget about the main dealers or independant workshops that use LR dealers for their diagnostics etc - they are never going to be able to enable the cruise for you.
Just a clarification of what simoniz said....

Once cruise is enabled it normally lights up on the dash when in use - a few have found it does not but the cruise works anyway.
- On early D3s nothing will work until it is activated via a suitable tool (Faultmate/Autologic) *. Once activated, both the cruise control and the lamp on the dash will work.
- On later D3s (>=MY07 ?) they sometimes work straight away (without activation) but the indicator lamp on the dash does not come on. Once enabled, the lamp will also work.
As yours is a 2005 D3, I don't think you're going to be able to get it working at all unless you can get it activated.
* As far as I know, there are no other options for enabling it besides these two.2006 Discovery 3 TDV6 SE AutoBuckingham Blue 2007 Golf GT DSG

Hi JP, you may get the Faultmate from BBS Spy, he's a forum sponsor.
As suggested mail via email not PM TFC he may be able to get you connected to someone out in yours with autologic then enable will be on and you will be a happy man
PM wiggs as well you never know the depth of peoples contact networks
