    Battery Dead...how to unlock car?

    I believe to deactivate the sleep mode all you have to do is press the drivers side door handle.Then press the handle again to open the door.If the door does not open(vehicle is armed),press unlock on the fob,open the door,put the key into the ignition and turn it to the on/run position.This...

    Anyone here on the board from LA heard about the missile mistery?

    I saw on the news there was speculation it was an ICBM fired from a submarine.It was thought it was a flexing of American military muscle while Obama was in Asia.The firing was designed to show the Asians that they could be reached by a missile fired in the Pacific,so not to try any funny stuff.

    Tire age???

    Here in Canada,tires can be legally sold that are up to 6 years old from date of manufacture.After that they are supposed to be pulled off the rack,but some places don't and still sell them to unwary buyers.

    Replace Fog Light?

    Covering them in a clear bra material is a good idea.I replaced both of mine at a cost of 165.00 CDN each,and one is already cracked again.Next time I will definitely cover them to enhance longevity.

    What is the normal psi range on the 2008?

    It does seem like an extreme range but the car seems to run fine.It does worry me a little bit that at idle it drops so low,but it is still within normal parameters as indicated by the pressure gauge.

    What is the normal psi range on the 2008?

    That's amazing,because I was wondering just yesterday what normal oil pressure is for my 08.My oil pressure when engine is warm and at idle hovers around the low 30's(220kPa)but rises to about 90(625kPa)when accelerating.I don't remember it being that low when my car was new but I guess it is...

    advice anyone?

    Up until about 3 weeks ago,my vehicle used to start flawlessly when fired up.Now,every time I go to start the car for the first time,it acts as if it is reluctant to start.It takes a prolonged push on the start button and then it acts like it is not firing on all cylinders for the first,maybe 5...
