Yeah agree. So D3’s were not ADR compliant then? I call complete BS on the statement that D3 don’t have a high beam indicator and the FBR was an alternative. I would suggest that the vehicle in question has a cluster issue.

From what he was telling me it may well do COVID tests!

As you say, because of ADR's I could not work out why it didn't have one. However I tried to get the clock on the dash in the first instance and due to the different software the FBH icon then appeared.

I thought it was the earlier cars did not have the "lights on" indicator. In the early D3 that position is filled by the FBH lamp. In the later models it became the green "lights on" lamp. Mine has the "lights on" and no FBH indicator even though it has the FBH. The backported firmware for clock on dash is from the later model, which makes the FBH lamp come on when the headlights are on. The blue "high beam" indicator is in a completely different part of the panel.

Man, i'd love to not have a 'lights on' indicator - they are on Auto anyway, and I can tell they are on at night by the way when looking out the windscreen, I see where i'm going... Now I get a big bright non-dimmable light to remind me that it's dark outside.

I have a 2006 D3 and have, what I thought was normal, a blue light in the cluster to tell me high beam is on.

Waited 2 weeks for my new drawer slides to arrive and they sent me 2 right hand ones, contacted the seller and they offered me a 35% refund .
Replacement or 50% refund was my reply so I'll see what happens.
Locking levers will be one up and one down which isn't the end of the world, but it's the vibe, it's mabo - no its the vibe
