bet I could further along the French manual than you could...   The next American ex-pat that calls it a "truck" is going to find out what 2.7 tons feels like on their foot...
Club "yes, I too have had the EGR's replaced..."
Club "yes, I too have had the compressor replaced..."
Club "yes, I too once had the car at the dealer for a couple of weeks nearly 4 weeks over 4 weeks...5 weeks"
Club "yes, I too have had EPB failure..."
Club "yes, I too get mysterious bings and bongs..."

You should try it. Who knows what other useful features you are missing.

A new one frightened me to death today - Just tootling along like you do and all of a sudden "DONG...DONG" and the SAT-NAV came alive with , I swaer, ALL the petrol stations in Gauteng ------------- I'd nearly run out of juice, fairly easy in the V8, but I never new we had so many petrol stations in SA let alone around Tambo airport.
What a good feature and I haven't found it in the SAT NAV Manual - mind you, has anybody managed to read that bible through? I get into it a few pages, forgetting the first two, going back.... and so it goes. I've decided, for the sake of sanity, to stick with my Garmin !!

I think I really must be sad. I downloaded the manual and read it cover to cover before I even bought my car. Or it might have been while I was waiting to get it, but either way I downloaded it, printed it out (that's a lot of pages) and read it before I got the keys! D3 HSE MY05 Auto

I thought that the manual was supplied as reading material for when you are waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting for the latest fault to be fixed on time?
 Man with no D3 anymore, but cant leave the forum....how sad.

People always say RTFM but IMHO the Kamasutra doesnt really provide much insight into the D3. Very good for IKEA furniture though.
