  • 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.

I picked up my 2015 3.8 RWD Santiago Silver Ultimate this morning. :)

Of course, I've got a question that I can't find an answer to. What's the clamp thingie (note the use of a very technical term) on the inside of the trunk lid? You can see what I'm referencing on page 3-54 of the Owner's Manual.

Homelink paired right up with my garage door opener and pairing my old LG Revere cell phone through Bluetooth was a snap. It downloaded all my contacts so fast I thought it didn't work. Sure was easier than doing the Bluetooth pairing with my 2011 MKZ.

One unfortunate thing has happened already. When they handed me the keys, the gave me the plastic tag with the key code on it and said don't lose it. So, I put it in my pocket for safe keeping. Somewhere along the line of some stops on the way home the tag must have got tangled in my household keys and fell out of my pocket when I pulled out the keys to get my cell phone or keys for the old car and I didn't notice it.

I've called the dealer and am waiting for them to call back as they thought the could still get the code for me.

The holder on the inside of the trunk is for "other world" spec'd vehicles when a warning triangle is required by country.
 
A pocket for the warning triangle makes sense. I did think of that later.

Having spent close to eight years in Germany back in 70s and 80s I'm familiar with the requirement to carry the warning triangles as well as a really good first aid kit. In Germany the first aid kits had to meet some government standard and were a really complete package. I still have one, but the contents (bandages, gauze, wraps, etc) are all in pretty bad shape since they are over 35 years old.
