Re: ***WARNING AIRBAG GLITCH***

Well since my fender was ripped off it was easy to see the sensor :lol:

Adjuster just totaled my car. $3k in exterior damage and $21k for airbags/headliner and seats.

Re: A "Which Tire Question"

I have about 15k miles on my Continetal Extreme DWS. I love the handling of the tires, especially in the rain. We had a mild winter last year so I can not give a rating on snow conditions. Tires are not loud and have a nice sporty tread pattern.

Re: Just rolled 45,000 miles on 2011 Kizzy

Well I was in for an oil change and it needed new wipers so I said put new ones on. Never thought it would cost that much (even though it was at dealer). I change them out myself on my other cars but I was lazy that day. After some bitching they dropped it down to $50. Just passing on the info. Dell...

Re: Must do the steps to "pair" phone every time I start the

Most of the time it seems I have to "connect" the phone - I have an iPhone - manually once the system is booted. Sometimes it connects automatically right away. Maybe weak Bluetooth reception at the head unit. Its annoying, sometimes I have to get on the road quickly, then learn the phone...

Well radio is being replaced as the screen is defective so hopefully the maps and software are updated before they put it in.
