Hi Guys, can anyone tell me what packs were listed as extras, and what each pack consisted of.
thanks in advance :happy2:
-
Winter pack is headlight washers, heated seats, heated washer jets.
-
Did luxury pack, not include electric folding mirrors, and passenger mirror moves to kerb edge when select reverse?
-
I think lux pack also includes the rain sensor and auto lights if i remember rightly
-

On the front bumper under the headlights there are plastic inserts if these inserts are in 2 pieces then you should have headlamp washers. They only work when the headlights are switched on and work on the 1st and then every 5th time you wash your windscreen on any single journey.

I got all of that kit i think except heated seats.. Well i assume i dont have heated seats how do you switch them on?
-
Ta dude-mine are 2 piece. Can I pull them out for some kind of service mode. My old st170 stalks could b pulled out.....
Heated seat control panel will b under the climate control knobs, I believe quite rare on cloth seats?

Not sure as i have never done it. If there not working its probably that the fuse as blown happened to mine over winter as they get frozen closed and can't open. I think its fuse 36 in the passenger compartment fuse box. Drivers side, open door and the plastic on the end of the dashboard just unclips and reveals the fuses.

Above heater controls picture of a seat with wavey lines through it and a wheel with number on 0-5 i think.

The winter pack gives heated washer jets and a low washer fluid warning, also heated seats, but these are standard with leather anyway.
Lux pack is a nice option, folding mirrors and puddle lights. Plus rear map reading lights.
-
Mine has low washer warning but the heated jets can't work v well.....frozen majority of last winter.
Will investigate the headlamp washers
ta fellas

You probably won't see the water as it will squirt and by the end of your journey (at night probably) you won't notice the water or it will have dried up.

Hi Guys,
What pack/packs have I got then?
Got headlight washers
Got auto headlights
Got rain sensor wipers I think?........ I can not work this at all "Can someone advise"
Got heated cloth seats
Got map reading rear lights
Not sure if I have folding mirrors? if I have I don't know how to fold them
Puddle lights they seem to be there in the bottom of the doors and the look more than just a reflector but they don't light up..So I'm not sure if I have them or not if I have both bulbs must have gone?

Sorry for bringing this back to the top but can I have some answer's please :happy2:

Do you have xenons? These come with washers automatically. If not, you probably have winter pack - heated windscreen washer jets/headlamp washers/low washer fluid warning/heated seats.
Everything else is standard.
Folding mirrors will have a position on the knob to fold them in I think
Puddle lights are lights in the bottom of the wing mirrors that shine downwards. might be wrong though

How do I know if I have xenons?
And what about the rainsensor wipers mine have a mind of their own if I indeed have them.

Xenons- have a look at some pics on the for sale section or google them. Quite distinctive.
Auto wipers - can be too sensitive or not enough. If the wiper is in the neutral position they are off. One click up is automatic. Second click up is continuous. Third click is fast continuous. The toggle switch should alter sensitivity.

When I have the wipers one click up it hardly ever wipes is this linked to the speed of the car....If I have this on whilst driving through the town centre if rarely wipes...Then it will wipe two or three times out of the blue.
The above is with the switch on the top of the wiper arm fully to the left.
Also is it normal for the wipers to fall back into position then delay then drop another to or three inches ?
-
Looking from your pics Mr Punch, you don't have xenons. It's normal for them to pop up a couple of inches when they are in wiping mode. The sensitivity as stealthwolf pointed out is the little toggle switch on the stalk itself. Furthest to the right is most sensitive.

That will explain I've had it furthest to the left :stupid:
I thought I had Xenons because I had washers for my headlights :sad1:
The reason I was once told any car with Xenons require headlight washers as standard..... by law?????
Thanks Nasir

They do and they have to have auto levelling sensors. But headlight washers can be used as another safety system without the xenon lights. It's part of the winter pack. Glad to help :happy2:
