The search function could be improved. When it displays matches, they should be listed by Topic Title only, not including that huge box with a small amount of text. The way it is now, it's hard to read through many matches. Also, there should be an option so that it displays only main post results, not a million replies to the same post. It's annoying to read a match to your search, and then scroll down and keep finding that same thread repeated..<br><br>Check out the search page on the TDICLUB forums, it's a VERY good one.<br>Search Page on TDICLUB (http://forums.tdiclub.com/search.php?Cat=)<br><br>Heres a generic search I did for 'wheels' on mbworld, their results are much easier to read than here also.<br>wheels search (http://forums.mbworld.org/forums/search.php?s=&amp;action=showresults&amp;searchid=246814&amp;s ortby=lastpost&amp;sortorder=descending)<br><br>I hope this helps out, not trying to be critical, trying to be helpful!

There seems to have been a slight problem with the MBWorld.org Forums database. ??? [laugh]

TDI uses a different forum software so our search function can't be changed to match theirs.
