Im not sure - current (incompetent) dealer seems to think there is an known issue where the do it from heating and cooling.

Yep, me too - I spent most of yesterday afternoon with the dash on my lap fixing the fault that it came back with after it's last visit to the dealers - as it comes back with a new fault (usually minor, fortunately) each time I decided it's best to fix things yourself. Much safer.

Turned out they had bent the contacts on the rear of the cigar lighter when they had the central dash out, so it was shorting out and blowing the fuse(!). Strange as the fault they were supposed to be fixing was the heated screen - odd as I didn't see any connections to the screen behind there, and even stranger they then said it hadn't broken and was working all along - so why take it apart (and break something else) just to tell me that - DUH? And I still don't think it's working, but will have to wait for the first frost to find out...

Well had the new rear window Thumbs Up what i cant work out, we both think it isnt tinted but cant remember if the last was or how tinted it was.

The sides all have factory tints and microcat is telling me the glass for those is tinted - but the rear isnt...does anyone know? Mike
