The D3 goes in for its first MOT in my ownership next week, also having a service. Everything appears to be working ok, its the stuff you cannot see as well as the emissions that are always the worry.
My local indy are also going to take a look at and hopefully fix the headlight washer problem which causes it to dump all the screenwash when the headlight washers are used. The fluid dumps from the washer bottle end and not the usual bumper end.
Mileage is displaying exactly 133,000 miles, so I've done just 4K miles in 8 months.
There are still a number of minor outstanding issues, none of which seem to cause any problems.
1) Persistent Battery drain
2) Rear footwell heaters don't work
3) The HVAC flap motor in the engine bay is jammed open (at least its not closed)
4) The intake flaps are seized solid, as a result the linkages are also broken.
