    I mentioned W/N replaced a cracked trim piece on my service visit. This piece was taken off a car in the showroom and transferred to my car so l would not have to return in two weeks when the ordered part arrived.

For constant power l considered the frunk “cigar style lighter” circuit for the movement/surveillance portion, but...

    Dash Cam

    Any advice on where to hard wire a dash cam into the 2024 vehicle? The parking surveillance needs constant power while the dash cam is on a switched circuit. Cheers, Doug

    3,000 km - apparently I need a new engine.

    Sorry to hear about your engine. Did they offer any reason for the failure? Lack of lubrication, wrong clearance in assembly, overheating? You mentioned this was “unusual/rare”, but has anyone else experienced this? If the bearings are completely gone metal has gone through entire engine. I...

    Question How do you decipher the vin to provide day and month of manufacture? Thank you
