So i found, what seems to be an amazing mechanic for euro's, and the possiblilty of aftermarket rims has come up. But more importantly the prive went from 5000 to just under 2000, depending on how bad the frame is in. This sounds like stupid question but, does the 3.0, sport version and 2.5 base models have a different suspension set up. And wil the sport mode button be damaged in anyway from the mess up in the sterring.

 

Disco, to the best of my knowledge, the only difference between the sport model and a base model X-Type is the springs and the struts. They are different between the two. But, everything else is the same.

As for things affecting the sport mode button, this should have nothing to do with your accident. All that button does is tells the computer to shift the tranny at slightly higher/lower points based on whether it is in sport mode (higher shift points) or in comfort (lower shift points).

 

okay, i see, thanx thermo, hnow i know i can narrow some things down, and one of my fears is gone
