To answer a couple of the questions.. I did have the drums off my car and it does indeed have star wheel adjusters. My assumption is all '17 and up have this setup.

Just did brakes on all 4 wheels at 76,000km. (90% highway driving)
Fronts were in horrible shape with rotors suffering extreme rust damage with high ridges inner and outer edges. There was still a...
Android auto over wireless please.
Instead of just flinging it shut leave your hand on it while it shuts.
Works like follow through in a golf swing.
When I saw the large battery in this car I was actually impressed.
Most new autos come with barely adequate batteries these days, even trucks. The large capacity increases reliability of the vehicle...
A car is a tool..
a 9/16" wrench is a 9/16" wrench no matter who makes it, where it's made or what it costs. It will in all but the worst case scenario loosen or tighten a 9/16" bolt/nut.
Some...
As far as I don't like "new fangled doohickeys" I probably would not try to disable front impact avoidance because if I'm driving attentively and defensively I should never be in a situation where it...
You do not use cruise control to bring the car up to speed.
The purpose of the +/- is to bump cruise speed up/down while in cruise to adjust speed according to traffic etc.
Get the car up to...
Oh. Look I can get it in Canada and it's only DOUBLE THE PRICE!
No wonder the US big box stores love it here.
Canada=double profits.
That sounds like advice from experience there..
It doesn't.
When I thought car was broken again it was deemed unreliable..
Now that I know about the child locks and have verified the issue is me, I am deemed unreliable.
Seems to be a normal trait of the CVT in cruise as it reacts/compensates for every little breeze and altitude change. My 2017 does it as well. Just a side effect of low HP and a CVT with budget...
I had several issues with bluetooth music and Android Auto when using my Samsung Galaxy and Note devices. I did a little research and found that Samsung devices commonly have issues with Android Auto...
The "unofficial" explanation for the failure of mine included a metallurgical issue with the pistons. It was said the piston material simply shrank too much in "extreme" cold allowing piston to rock...
The cvt trans by definition has no shift points, it's continuously variable. Think snowmobile or ATV but a woven steel belt instead of rubber.
Next time you drive one try this.. hold accellerator...
Isn't the outside temp display enabled on the '17s already?
Ha. Lookin forward to it.
Thanks.
After reading the whole thing through I'm left with the impression these CVT's are crap.
With all the wear and tear associated with simply pressing the "gas pedal" I don't expect a long life from...
Not much practicality as a truck there.
Box is far too small. Like a car with the trunk lid removed.
There will be some ticking on startup when cold.. as stated previously, some of it is likely injector noise. This is normal. Always drive the car gently untill the little green leaf goes away then...
The piston slap issue was "resolved" early on with (I was told after my engine was replaced for this issue) metallurgy changes to pistons and remapped cold start fuel programming. The early North...
Speaking from experience, you're putting way too much worry and concern into the purchase of a car you're not buying any time soon.
It's pretty obvious you're trying to talk yourself into a Mirage...
Contrary to my previous post my '17 does/did in fact have this deflector. I pulled it off today. One 10mm bolt and a plastic push rivet held it on.
And just FYI.. The deflector is still there on...

Are you saying the grey mark on the end of steering knuckle is where it's rubbing or is the black section on the tie rod within your white circle that's rubbing?
If it's the tie rod center...
Ooh...ouch. sounds a little too invasive to me.
