IIHS has spent the last 60 years shaming manufacturers into making their vehicles more expensive. Now that that goal has been achieved, they keep moving the goalpost to keep themselves relevant.
Fortunately the Ranger chime can (as of now) be disabled, but a car that won't let me get from my...
What's with the Hankook hate? I'm at 47k on the factory tires. It's time to replace them but to get that far on an A/T tread was pretty impressive to me.
I'm trying to fix a problem on my Honda Odyssey relating to an airbag light. The betas on the Odyssey forum aren't interested in fixing anything, they just fold over and want you to take everything to the dealer.
I just wanted to pat ourselves on the backs for a good forum with a great spirit...
The thing you have to move is a chrome pin approx 1/8” diameter, which is at the end of the blend door lever arm. It will have grease all over it when you first pull the actuator off.
My actuator has been disconnected for months and I haven't ever seen a code.
Fly by wire temperature controls have been around a long time and are mostly standard these days, even on models that don't have automatic HVAC. Which makes it all the more disappointing that this is still a problem.
Yes, and in fact it's possible (not easy) to adjust the blend door manually from the seat.
Remove plastic cover under steering wheel
Remove steel plate
Remove actuator, see a tip here
Maybe remove a bit of ducting that exits above the brake pedal, I can't remember.
The blend door is now...
I have not tried disabling my cargo lamp but (I am only guessing here) since the cargo lamp isn't a safety problem I don't see them spending money on current sensing circuitry.
Right at the cargo lamp housing. You can barely see it here.
It would take less than 5 minutes for one of you to try...
Pull the cargo lamp assembly out and unplug it. There are separate plugs for cargo lamp and brake lights.
The switch in the dash won't do you any good, it is a CAN switch.
You’re doing the Lord’s work.
I have already installed the TC button in hopes that someone would figure this out. If you get above 90% confidence I would take one for the team and try this out.
6'0" I really didn't notice the seating position one way or the other so it must be comparable to my Ranger. Although when I got back in the Ranger I was pleased to notice how much more plush my leather felt.
I would agree with this assessment. Perfectly adequate in every way, outstanding in none.
I got a rental for a work trip, SWMO <> DFW area. It had 6000 miles, and I put an additional 1000 on it.
In no particular order...
Pros:
Drives very nicely
Feels really tight and quiet
Quietness is comparable to my truck after I put dynamat in the doors
The bed sides are low and very...
