Questions about purchasing Kizashi

[kizashigal]

I leave my Ipod plugged in, and occassionally it will say error in dash, just unplug and plug in if that occurs. The locks should come with your mats if you ordered the premium mats with the car. Since yours are missiong complain to the salesman as they are a $10 item and this should not be a big deal. Mine were left out so I called and said they are mentioned in the manual, so they should come with the mat. Problem solved

Hi,

Just took delivery of my Kizashi. Just a few questions if anybody can help me out:

1) This is sort of stupid but. Do the side mirrors fold in? I would assume they do but they seem kind of rigid and I did not want to force it.
2) The manual recommends unplugging the Ipod from USB port after engine stops. From what it looks like, after the engine stops, the Ipod is no longer being charged (that the USB power shuts off), so I do not see a problem leaving it plugged in after the engine stops. Do people leave the USB device plugged in? It would be a slight nuisance to have to plug/unplug each drive.
3) According to the manual, I am missing the floor lock and screw thingie for securing my front seat floor matts; instead, there are just two holes. Am I supposed to find the locks and put those on myself? Again, kind of a stupid question.

Thanks,

1. Yes, manual not power
2. I leave mine plugged in all the time
3. Mine were missing too. The dealer should get them for you. There is a TSB on the floor mats with some info that will help the tech find the part number

Thx for all the info.

Good to know that people leave the ipod plugged in without a problem. I was afraid it might drain from the car battery.

Well I just checked my tire pressure using a digital gauge. They were 29-30 psi on all 4 tires. I have a new SLS AWD. The sticker and manual says 38 psi. I was surprised since I asked if the dealership checked the tire pressure before I took delivery. Well, I guess I wasn't surprised since they didn't do a lot of things they said they did but that's another story. I just want to make sure that most people inflate the Kizashi tires to 38 psi as on the sticker / manual? The tires do not feel "soft" at all though, despite the readings being 29-30 psi (I don't know much about cars so excuse the ignorance).

i inflated mine to around 40-41
30 is waaaaayyyy too low......it will give you poor gas milage and handling

I'm surprised the TPMs didn't alert.

It actually did after I checked the tire pressure and read them to be 29-30. I guess that little amount of air let out during checking just tipped it over the threshold.
