Well, I've owned my D3 for 12 months now and added 7K miles in that time.

My previous post mentions a brake issue, well as posted elsewhere it turns out the brakes are fine and feel perfectly ok after the buckled wheel was straightened out.

There are currently 2 mechanical issues remaining, the stuck manifold flaps and MMI clicking screen.

There are however quiet a few faults relating to the climate control system. Neither of the rear footwell heaters work and the recirculation flap motor under the bonnet has failed (luckily in the open position).

The keyless door handles seem to work as they should intermittently in the cold weather, but during the summer they were all fine.

However the car is 11 years old now, and in much better shape than a year ago.
