Welcome

Welcome on board the family. I am not familiar with your initials of your location BiH? British independent Hartford?

When you have the chance let us know your year and engine size (trans too as you all over there get manuals that the States do not).

Looking forward to you being part of the forum.

Thank you guys

BiH is for Bosnia and Hercegovina

i'll try to be more detailed now. Like I said, it' 2003 3.0d with 135 kW, 5-speed automatic gear, Dakota beige comfort least with memory and heating, PDC front/rear, xenon with washers...etc. No navigation and sunroof (those i miss all the time), and MID is of course with missing pixels


The car came with minor mistakes, and most of them found solution here in this forum. First was driver's door handle, then window regulator clips and sliders, windshield fluid loss on headlight nozzles, and also i did rear taillights contacts sanding and soldering for better contact (it helped but not solved my fast turn signals issues). I ended with LCM IV changed and now my turn lights are ok.
I also bought 19 inch wheels for summer:

Most important thing is that the car is driving ok, and what it needs are cosmetic things, but the process is little bit slowly because it's only car I have so i need it in daily basis.
I also wanted to retrofit navigation, found and bought everything form donor car, and at last i was disappointed because i cannot find display holders to fit the display in dashboard. Now I'm thinking of dynavin or eonon instead, after I get rid of original components.

I also plan to do exaust pipes, aluminum side runners, LLumar window shading, and (maybe) some works on headlights, angel eyes or completely change with decline headlights. Most ideas and solutions found here, so thank you!!!
Sorry for english, I did my best ))
