4 weeks into my D3 and I just found that there is another 12 volt socket for a charger on the passenger side of the centre conole as well as the one on the driver side, very useful and I was dead chuffed to find it.
Really should read the manual (assuming its in there!)

The dashboard fueltank arrow isn't as good as the garage's own system.
Simply drive to the garage. Find the side of the pumps which is empty. Your fuel tank is locacted on the opposite side.

Probably seen by others but the small load area light rocker switches in the roof above seat 6 & 7
Was measuing the height of the load space last night and noticed them - only had the D4 for 5.5 years and a D3 for 5 years before that

I love the storage for the parcel shelf when all the seats are folded down. Can't believe the thought that people put into these vehicles.

Unfortunately that no longer works as soon as you put seat covers on the middle row of seats.

Exactly, the covers cover up the "button" bits so the load cover can't slot in.
