Do you know how the car turns the headlights off when you turn the engine off and open the door? If you you turn the headlights back on, or turn them on without the key in the ignition and shut the door the car will automatically turn the lights off after 1 minute. (checked with a stopwatch) Its awesome when is dark and you cant see a thing and have to walk to the front door. My gf loves it. *It does not work if you only turn the parking lights on. The low bean must be turned on, otherwise the lights will stay on until the battery goes flat. Not sure if this is amazing or just something everyone already knows. Just thought I should mention.


Thank! i didnt know how to get that to work lol

Automatic window washers?

They're available on VR models and up, my 09 had it

Why would anyone use an indicator to go straight through a roundabout? It's people who use their indicators 3 times on a roundabout that confuse the issue

You use them when you go to exit. so drivers know what exit you are taking on the roundabout

Yep....not everyone knows where you entered it. They don't know you're going straight through so you have to indicate so they know which exit you are taking.

You didn't get your licence in my old town if you failed to indicate on the roundabout. The testing guy was very funny about it. That and looking over your left shoulder to make sure that you weren't about to run into some idiot coming up your left hand side where the cars are supposed to be parked. He must have had something happen to him and he's very insistent that you look.

This one's a real gimmick but im sure this may come in handy for a few of you especially this time of the year but, under the lid of your console, that 'empty space' is actually a tissue holder, so if you take the tissues of the box, still piled up properly and press them in there you can take your tissues one at a time, just like a normal tissue box...found it in my instruction manual the other day :P
