| Rear window aerials and general PDI |
|
Hi all,
If wrong section please move.
Only just bought and picked up my D3 two weeks ago but we've just got it back from the dealer for a few faults we found.
One of the faults was on the NSR window there appears to be 3 aerials. At the top of glass there are plastic caps with a wire on two of them looks like a button attachment.
On the OSR window there is again 3 aerials and there is also 3 caps with a wire.
We handed the car in as our radio doesn't change frequency on the move for the station we are on and the TMC works locally but doesn't change frequency either and I thought aerials on these were on the rear windows.
We asked them to look at several faults on a car we just picked up after a PDI. They had to order a memory ECU for the wing mirrors positioning, a back tailgate window and a bonnet switch. we also reported no front fog lights working. Thorough PDI then.
We noticed we didn't have a cap placed on the aerial on the NSR after it was dropped of to us and we contacted the dealer over this and they have said that UK cars have aerials on the OSR and USA cars have aerials on the NSR (from our perspective). They have asked me to take pics and email them to the dealer as there is clearly wires attached on both windows.
Does anyone have an idea if these are in fact aerials and whether all six aerial things should have wires connected to them.
Thanks all probably sounds vague from my description but crystal clear in my head. Ian

This may explain why they replaced my rear glass on the tail gate.
Which we aren't sure if they have replaced with the right glass.
We had glass called 'solar shield armour plate' on the rear it was etched in the glass. Now we have 'sundym' which we're not sure if it is the same. Ian
