As I am just in the process of repairing my heated D4 wheel (Burnt connector) I thought while the wheel is off and there is a chance I've knackered up the heated clock spring (again ) I may treat myself to some new D4 stalks. When searching the bay of E I came across these good looking chaps. My question is do all D4,s come with heated clock springs weather used or not or am i just imagining that as I'm sure i have heard this said before ?
Also will this one (Its from a 2013) reverse the front and rear screen wash (So you pull the stalk to wash the front screen as opposed to pressing the end on the D3 ones ?)

Can’t answer the clock spring but but yes will make the front wash pull towards instead of pushing the end in. I did mine and they were so much better than the old ones.2006 TdV6 HSE.

The in socket on the clock spring needs to have the extra two sockets on the left of photo, I can’t make them out on your photo, they seem to be fitted as standard to all 2013my+ vehicles, I fitted stalks off a 2014 Sport without any problems.
Be sure to centralise the spring before fitting.
It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.
I had my D3 for 11 years and have had my D4 for more than 3 years but I still can’t get used to the reversed washer stalk! As you slide down the banister of life

Found this a little while back, hope it may be of use ,
Also fitted D4 stalks and indeed find them easier to use than the D3 ones . As a side note, mines a base model , Didn’t realise at first when set onto intermediate the wiper speed changed according to MPH , haven’t got a rain sensor fitted

Hi
Found swapping the stalks over to the D4 ones was also a great modification
Hopefully pic is also easier to see

i have done this mod on my D3, best thing i've updated so far.
they came with a heated clock spring (for sale in sales section)
to me they work so much better than the standard D3 layoutD3 HSE 2.7 TDV6 named Calvin with him stuffed Tiger Hobbes sat in the back

Totally agree , indeed a great mod
I also fitted a D4 ( not heated ) steering wheel and find the switch layout better than the D3

Hi yes thats what i have on mine but unfortunately I cannot see it on the E bay pics of the CS. I was hoping that they are standard on D4s (Heated CS) so I can kill two birds with one stone if my CS is knackered The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything;
