Turbo R Features

[Scotty2]

I have not yet sourced a handbook for my Turbo RL and have which may be a stupid question....

Does a Turbo R have a heated rear windscreen or heated mirrors? In this weather I could do with finding the switch!

If they don't then why not for the cost of the vehicle.........

Not great in the snow but better than my Jag !What does the snowflake button do? It disp[lays "manual" when pushed....

Thanks in advance..

snowflake button is the early version of traction control.when manual is on it means that traction is off.Harry

As Harry says, they do have a heated rear screen and mirrors, but there's no switch, they are automatic.

On the subject of screens, are you aware of your screen excess on your insurance? It can be an important consideration with these cars.

The first £250 is no good with a front screen at £1200 and a rear screen at £1700.

I was with RH and needed a front screen, they paid out in full. Then I switched one year to Lancaster and needed a rear screen, they only paid the first £250. A cover oversight on my part, I switched back to RH pronto. Something like that can make several years premiums irrelevant.

Thanks for the prompt responses. The "ICE" warning does come up on the display, but despite it being cold enough for the screen to heat up, there is nothing defrosting. Must have a look at the fuses or relays.

I think you'll find that when the snowflake button is pressed the car sets off in second gear. It was introduced on the 92 model year with the 4 speed box.

I have been looking through the CD I bought from Flying Spares and have found details of a fuseboard in the boot which might solve the problem...Not easy to navigate though...must have been written by a storeman...
