Whats the coolest feature you didn't know your car had?

[Zemedici]

If I throw a bottle of water in there, it is very common for it to slide all the way back. Usually I can snake my arm around and grab it with my fingertips, but once or twice I've had to wait until I stopped to get it. Or at least until I braked hard enough to slingshot it forward!

just make sure no one's behind you when you do this, folks. lololol

I like the semi-automatic auto-tilt side mirrors feature for backing up.

Actually... I just programmed seat memory 3 button with just the side mirrors dipped a bit. When I get ready to back up into a parking spot I hit button 3 and the mirrors tilt down. You do need to remember to hit button #1 when done parking.

What a great idea. I always back into the driveway, then Back into the garage (for easy exit). I just did your trick yesterday and it works great. Now, as you said, the hard part will be to remember to hit the other button before exiting the car. As Arnold once said...."Thanks for the tip".

I realised yesterday that you can connect 2 different bluetooth devices - e.g. i connect my 2 iphones - work phone for calling hands-free and the other as a music player. Pretty cool

If I'm not mistaken, you can connect up to 3 phones via Bluetooth. So you can do those 2+ a burner phone ;)

Yea, I get unlimited wireless on my work phone, so I keep it on Pandora all the time. I have my personal cell on there for the family to bug me. Who needs XM when it sounds like crap and costs twice as much as commercial free Pandora?

i used to use pandora 100% of the time but i've since switched to spotify

Don't know if this was mentioned here, but today I discovered there is a secret compartment inside the glove box made just for your car manual.

When you pull down the glove box, you should see a yellow button. Press it and you'll see a tiny glove box inside the glove box!

I have 4 phones saved on bluetooth. But what I meant was using them simultaneously - you can pair 2 phones.

Did you mean you can pair 3 phones simultaneously?

Hitting the unlock button once then releasing it, then pressing it and holding it down makes the windows roll down.

Greatest thing I've ever done in my car and I love how all the song and artist info still shows on MFT

Yesterday I went into the trunk and through stuff I had including the FOB. I closed the lid but it didn't lock.

i tried to stall the car on purpose by letting the clutch go in 1st with no throttle, the car revs to 1k and lets you creep along in traffic by only controlling the clutch

 

[mike62]

Someone called it creep mode. I did it on the interstate. Works great.

mike62 there are actually separate antennas in the trunk to detect the difference between a fob in the trunk and outside in your pocket so it won't lock them in.
