  1. NB: should you decide to have wiring installed you'll need a trailer connector module. Can't crimp the wires to the rear light wiring.
  2. In construction trade you would be better off with a light trailer. Much safer and more functional plus better load rating.
  3. 1.5 turbo diesels have PowerShift robotic auto box.
  4. Osram Nightbreakers in, to replace the lousy OEM Philips bulbs, all yellow and dum. Tone difference:
  5. Dual clutch? Are you sure? The 6-speed auto in the EcoBoost is a standard planetary auto.
  6. Oh hi there! That's probably the best looking Caddy I've seen. The matte vinyl enhances the lines really well. Regards from a Roland sign equipment dealer.
  7. I'm sure an installation guide exists for this head unit.
  8. I mean the keyboard that pops up when you want to perform a search for POI. The parking brake requirement is there to prevent you from typing while driving.
  9. Some GPS units disable search keyboard unless parking brake is engaged.
  10. I wonder for how long did I drive with this nail in the tire: Ford Assistance should arrive soon.
  11. I heard of a Navigator with a nice set of wheels over here, the owner wanted to secure the wheels so bad he used different security nuts, just security nuts no normal ones at all. One morning the Navigator was on bricks with one brick on the driver's seat with a note "DON'T EVER DO THAT AGAIN".
  12. Got it, you have the pre-facelift model. We're still talking about the immobolizer LED: Googled it for you:
  13. I get it and feel exactly the same every time I need to remove the wheels but when you're über religious about the whereabouts of the key at all times you won't have these negative experiences. I keep it next to the jack and put it right there every time I'm done with it. Then again, if my insurance didn't require it I'd probably pass too.
  14. The main reason for the wheel locks (or nuts) jamming is corrosion. There's no chance of jamming if you rotate annually or swap winter tires seasonally. Apply grease to studs and nuts every time before reattaching and you're all good. WD-40 is no good, use actual grease. Our insurance companies require wheel locks for 17" and larger alloy wheels. I've used locks for ages with no problems except losing the key once but the tire shop found a matching key right in the first try.
  15. I would mill off the cap, drill holes in the 12/3/6/9 o'clock, fabricate a key from a standard socket and bäng, off it comes.
