About to buy an s3

[rob irl tdi]

I noticed the main Custer pixels are dead and not sure if the washer jets for the xenons are working.

The washers will only work when the lights are turned on

The washers will only work when the lights are turned on

...and after a few seconds of using the washers... they don't come on straight away...

DIS can be fixed and is a common problem...

There are a few companies that do the replacement LCD fitted (no idea of prices) or you can buy them

I typed 'DIS replacement' into the search both on here and on Google mate and came up with loads of info on how to do this..

This is a very common issue

Get a professional to fix the DIS light. I attempted it myself and ended up stuffing it up
