This happened to me yesterday when I went to pick up my son from school. At first I had no idea what that god-awful screeching metallic noise was. I thought a wheel was about to come off. I got out and did a quick undercar visual and didn't see anything wrong. Embarrassing as hell being at...

If you've driven it that much without hearing pops and bangs in sport+, something is wrong. They are not difficult to hear and happen on every downshift at least. Get that thing checked out! My understanding is the center tube should be "always open" in sport+. In plain old sport mode, I...

Not exactly a truck, but I sold a Jeep Wrangler JLU to get the ITS. Similar to a pickup, the Jeep is a brick on wheels. In comparison, the Type S is like driving a racecar. So fun, especially on the curvy, hilly roads around here. I feel like I've been born again!

Hey, I get it. Around here we have a few hand wash detailing type places that are quite reasonable for just a routine cleaning. They do a good job and are careful with your car. Much better than huge spinning brushes, unclean water, and who know what chemicals. Not to mention the dragging...

I can't speak to your specific fault, but I do know that those automatic car washes typically cause more problems than they solve. This might be just me, but if my car is dirty enough to bother me, it is dirty enough for me to clean it myself. Unless you love swirl marks, scratches, damaged...

"That interior be doing looking one of a kind." Could someone please translate that foreign language into English for me? Is English even used anymore on social media? Must be public school.

Found a solution with the overpriced Homelink button "cartridge" that is 100% reversible if I change my mind or battery needs changing. Unit is snug up against the back wall of the charging area so pushing the buttons doesn't move it. It is attached with 3M Dual Lock. Doesn't interfere with...

It's a great color and a real head turner.

Ok, it wasn’t there yesterday but it showed up today so got it all setup with the 30 day trial. Seems to work well so far. Edit 10/5/23: well, after 1 day of trialing this myQ integration I've concluded that it sucks. The response is really slow if it occurs at all. I'm back to my clicker...

When I go to Manage Features, all I see is Vehicle Data Sharing On/Off. Nothing else on that page. Could this be different for Type S?

That linked article says it is functional as of today but who knows if it's accurate. I'll give it a look later on as I have all the necessary hardware it says should work.

One of the few good things about getting older is my eyes aren't as good so I don't see little things like that. Ignorance is bliss. I'm sure though if I got out a magnifying glass I could find something not perfect in the finish. I choose to just take the thing out and drive it. Road...

Yeah, you're right. That's not the reason. I'll go back to my original theory: I have no f****** clue why the gas tank is so small.

Bigger gas tank = more fuel weight which = less performance and worse gas mileage. Those are the only reasons I can come up with as to why they have such a small tank on this car. I have averaged 26.0 mpg in just over 1,000 miles which is much better than I was getting with the vehicle I...

My car lives in the garage also, but there are times when it has to be outside for whatever reason. Maybe you are cleaning the garage (yes, some of us do that), maybe you are installing cabinets, maybe you are charging the battery on your wife's car that is normally outside. There are lots of...

I think yours is installed crooked. The one on my car looks straight. Unless it is just the perspective of the photo you took.

Or how about coming from a ‘19 Jeep Wrangler JLU on 35s? This car is tiny. Don’t take my word for it, park it in a grocery store lot and look around.

Twice I’ve come face to face with burglars in my home in two different countries (including the US). Paranoia can be a product of your environment/experiences. Some paranoia can save your life.

Yeah, I'm paranoid. Nobody's ever had their car broken into and then been burglarized. ;)

That's my solution also, but I don't really like it. The problem with it is the garage door opener is a clipped on, portable device for gaining access to your garage and maybe your house (depending on how often you lock the door between the two). I don't know about you, but I have a lot of...
