  My unsolicited review and constructive criticism of Air UX3.0

  By Solomente

  Not that anyone cares but sharing this info as I see it. I have done UX design before, albeit many years ago and for financial software. This post is long so I started with a TLDR and I tried to base my feedback on factual information. Where something is opinion/personal preference, I tried to indicate that. I'm aware this is all in reference to the UX of a luxury car, so none of this should be taken too seriously. First world problems, as they say... TLDR: Overall performance (snappiness)... Read more

  "Engineering Explained" Takes Another Swipe at Lucid

  By hmp10

  After buying back Jason Fenske's Lucid Air after a year of software issues (some self-induced), Lucid gave him a loaner Gravity to use through the end of 2026 until the Rivian R2 he ordered was delivered. Unfortunately, that Gravity, too, was plagued with many of the software gremlins we early owners experienced, and he turned the vehicle back over to Lucid after a week. Fenske is saying he will now put the Lucid saga behind him and move on to other cars. Let's hope so. I love our three... Read more

  Headlight Assembly Cracking and Broken Seal

  By JerryFro

  MY GV80 notified my to check the driver side headlight to find all functions inoperable and dripping water on the inside of the lenses. Taking it to the dealership for repairs, I was told the warranty would not cover the "damage" since something must have hit the front of the car to crack the edges of the lenses and cause the lens seal to fail allowing water inside. There is not so much as a scratch on the car so the damage could not have been caused by an impact. The dealership then... Read more

  "Upgrading" from '22 to '02, Will I Regret It?

  By SirDave

  I'm thinking about replacing my '22 RAM Cummins with a '02 Dodge Cummins. I really like the quiet, comfortable ride of my '22 but every time I hook up the trailer for a trip I worry that it is going to leave me stranded someplace in the middle of no where with an emissions issue. I used to have a '98 Dodge Cummins - I loved it and put well over 100k almost trouble-free miles on it but the body was disintegrating so I got a '14 RAM Cummins. After about a year I had to replace a NOx sensor... Read more

  CX-5 Oil Light activation question

  By cretan

  2020 CX-5 NA. I had the oil light in the dash come on quite a while ago. I added less than a liter (quart) and the level on the dipstick came up to full. I am wondering if there is a sensor that turns on the light saying it is slightly low. Usually in all my other vehicles if the oil light comes on it means the engine is completely out of oil.

  Allowing myself to rejoice for one minute in my restoration journey

  By Thoragaverung

  I changed the spark plugs on my 1990 245 today. The engine has ~325K miles on it. There was absolutely NO evidence of oil on the old plugs. I conclude the rings are good. I am astonished and very happy. The only variance is a little evidence of gas on spark plug 3. I already knew I have a leaky injector somewhere, so now I know the culprit. These redblocks are damned good engines. Period.

  Audio Wiring Question

  By 04RAM_3

  I have a 2019 Rebel with the 12" stereo, Alpine system. I added two 12" Skar subs in a loaded Skar enclosure. Powering these is a Kicker 600.1 amp. I tapped into the right rear door speaker and connected with an AudioControl LC2i. It works great if I turn off the surround setting on the stereo. If I turn on surround, it still sounds good, but the bass falls off a little. I have the one right rear channel wired into the LC2i with a jumper at the converter to get signal to both outputs going... Read more

  CVT fill plug keeps blowing off - replaced breather valve

  By Vincentthecivic

  Changed HCF2 about 2.5k miles ago. Coming off the interstate, I got a whiff of hot CVT fluid. Popped the hood and looked to see if the fill plug had blown off again. Indeed it had. This is my second self fluid change, but even the last change from the dealership resulted in a blown fill cap. Reddit said the forward-facing breather value can get clogged with debris. During this last change, I replaced the breather valve, and faced it backwards. Caked fluid is all inside the engine bay... CVT fill plug keeps blowing off - replaced breather valve
