My windows have zero gap at the top but the track seals need cleaning periodically to prevent scratching. Check yours, you'll be surprised by the amount of dust and dirt that collects on the sealing surface. It's a simple matter of running a damp microfiber cloth in the channels each time the...

I have Llumar Air80 on the windshield and the HUD works fine. I forget it's even on there because it has no discernable tint to it. The only concern I have with it is if you happen to use your vehicle somewhere that requires a window decal there might be an issue with removing/replacing the...

I question the functionality and design of the oem sunroof deflector. If I reach up and retract it with my hand while driving there is a noticeable decrease in both noise and turbulence.

I’ve used it on mine a couple of times. Only complaint is the smell, I think skunk juice is one of the ingredients.

Admins have access to the email addresses we used for forum registration. Not sure if the Mods do as well, @sm1ke? Might be another way to let him know his absence is noticed.

I haven't purchased this yet but there are reviews going back to 2014 and I didn't see any allegations of fake material. Timely topic for me, I was drying my CX-5 last weekend I found what appeared to be tiny rust spots on the driver's door sill where the rubber seal makes contact. I was able to...

Mine were done when I had the Xpel installed on the front end. If you don’t want to try it yourself I’m sure a shop could do just the door cups for a minimal charge.

Rural two-lane with speeds between 45-60. Forty miles round trip with 1000’ elevation change. Only a couple of stops along the way. I check the readout at both ends and it’s usually 33-34 mpg one way and 27-28 the other, providing I keep the tach between 1800-2000 rpm which is the sweet spot...

2019 w/2.5T ~ 27.4 mpg averaged over 11,700 miles. Still climbing slowly.

Replaced mine today after getting annoyed by the warning message. The manual calls for a CR2025, but as Sig cx-5 has found, the slightly thicker CR2032 easily fits. The difference being 170mAh (2025) vs 240mAh (2032) which is an easy way to install 40% more capacity in your key fob. While that...

I’ve owned one black vehicle in my life. Never again.

I'd take it in. It appears to line up at the bottom edge so it looks like they could correct it by adjusting out the top edge of the bumper near the headlight. Not a big issue for the dealer to correct.

My friend is a disabled veteran so he doesn't have the option to do his own work. He took his '04 Explorer to Pep Boys this week for an oil change and was told he needed a new air filter and cabin filter. He went for the air filter but decided to wait on the cabin filter. When I heard this, I...

And the radio will drain a fully charged battery in a little over 2 hours. It tries to prevent this by shutting off every twenty minutes or so but if you keep turning it back on...and yeah, I learned that the hard way.

And that's the reason I ditched the factory spare and sourced a 17" wheel and tire combo that has the same diameter as the road tires. Long side story: After I got the 17" wheel I put the factory spare on Craigslist. I included a picture, said what it came from, and said the wheel was a...

So the takeaway on this is that with an M rating, it's probably ok to exceed 50 mph if I'm out on the interstate just going straight and trying to keep up with traffic, but I shouldn't hit the local autocross course with my Kumho spare on the way home. ;)

The speed ratings on the temporary spares is confusing. On the Kumho I have it states not to exceed 50mph, but it also has a load/speed rating of 116M. The M denotes a tire rated to 81mph. Falken tires also lists a T165/9017 spare with an M rating (59000810). In fact, there isn't any lower...

This is the clearance on a turbo model with a 17" Hyundai Sante Fe spare. I measured the gap at .400", maybe a few thousandths less at the center of the caliper. The T165/90R17 tire has the same diameter as the road tires so I wouldn't hesitate to run it on the front, the only limiting factor is...

That's nothing, in the U.S. they would add a zero to that estimate.
