  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

just purchased this car a few months back with 16k on her certified. coming from a 09 4.6, i definitely feel the difference. the suspension is noticeably better, especially going over bumps, but a stiffer ride. more power and stiffer steering, but overall, i like the car.

she's got 20500 miles on her now and just put her in the shop at the dealer for an oil change and to address a few issues i've had. so far. no oil consumption which is good. but i've had problems with the back up camera going black on me a few times; the stereo and entire head unit going out for 20 minutes one time. the radio on / off button will not turn the stereo off when you push the button in; when hitting defrost, the recirculation failed to turn off and we had exhaust smell in the cabin one time.

the dealer is replacing the entire cd/dvd player for a bad switch he said, and the other stuff i mentioned he couldn't get to repeat.

the intermittent stuff is frustrating but will have to just document everything for now, myself and the dealer.
 
The defrost setting uses outside air, as far as I know. That's why you might get some exhaust aroma.
