What crystal ball and gypsy woman did you consult to determine this? On the average car with no other changes, changing octane make approximately ZERO difference in HP. Or, are you just trolling this dude and me? LOL
The hybrid guys are going to tell you that it is all you ever need. But for me, I hate the CVT. No matter how good the new version is, it is still weird to me. I do not like the way any hybrid I've ever driven brakes. I will likely never do it, but I can tow 4K with my Eco boost should the need...
And here you are making up statistics. Have you searched 80-90% of auto manufacturers tire pressure specs? I have multiple vehicles in our lineup that all use tire pressures in the 40’s. But you are right. It is not a coincidence that tire pressure numbers are pretty close for most passenger...
A couple things. I have no doubt you’ve learned some things in your time and I am not discounting your personal experiences. But, you posted information on two very specific tests. Antihydroplaning benefited from higher tire pressure because increasing pressure makes the tire taller and...
It is not average for the average driver. It is what the auto and tire manufacturer have agreed is the best pressure for that tire on that vehicle after testing. Over inflating does not equate better performance. It may not even equate better tire life. I started racing cars in high school and...
Your car advice is to ask police or delivery people, but not the dealer? This is why when service clients come to me with "I read on a forum" I just go ahead and punch myself in the balls.
Define major issue. I've argued with people in here who told me their cold windshield tick was a major issue. In my mind a major issue is one that disables the car. There are varying degrees of inconvenience after that.
The chances of another OEM seat part being a direct swap are going to be near zero. You would be better off finding a high end auto upholstery shop and having them reshape or replace entirely the seat cushion foam for you.
In most states there is actually a line on the glass on each side edge. That is the point at which you can legally tint to. On my truck I tinted the entire windshield. If you use 70% you can barely tell but it does wonders. On the Mav I actually used 55%. If you look you can tell it is tinted...
This is valid, especially on the newest phones. We have this issue way more with iPhones, but for sure they prefer high quality cables and are a high failure rate in our cars without a Lightening or other high quality cord use.
Im not picking on your method here, exactly. But there really is just no substitute for using Apple Carplay or Android auto on this system. What is the reason you don't want to do this?
Wut? If you take the screen out, how would you have radio control? And no, you can't just take it out and have a finished space behind it. That's akin to asking if you can take the instrument cluster out and have a finished space behind it.
I don't know what one would not use the cable? Carplay and Android auto are the only way to go on these IMO. No issues for me either. This truck doesn't have an APIM btw. At least in the non Sync models
I am not here to complain, I am just posting my issue and seeing who else had this problem. Yesterday when I got to work and turned my key off all the interior electronics shut off, but not the engine. I put the key on and cycled it on/off a few times before the engine shut off as well. Now it...
