I'm guessing you might be able to get it to function with the proper coding with say either remote identifying with a setting. No physical button but if it could recognize the keys maybe. I have Ross Tech VAG COM for my VW's and Audi and there are several tweeks to modules that aren't available...
Yeah but this way no turning it off every time you start it. It's my wife's whip, she hates the auto start/stop but I don't see her remembering to disable it every start
Since I have only seen one so far that failed I"m still up in the air. I have as well looked at several 2.0 ecotech 2.0's with coolant leaking into combustion chambers but they have since changed block design. Like I tell people who ask "what's a reliable car/SUV" I tell them I can give them...
No, actually thinking it was a 2020 Escape that already had near 100K. Salesman veh. I'm a mechanical claims adjuster so I see lots of failures that stick in my mind
I drive a 15 Golf TDI about 1000 miles a week, I like it cuz it's got loads of torque. I typically drive 10mph above the speed limit when traffic allows. I"m not saying the 1.5 isn't peppy. We drove on before settling on the badlands. The 2.0 is just much quieter under load, has near 100 ft...
I'm sure the starter takes a bit of the abuse, the battery, any electrical module in your car, lights, screens, you name it. Nothing likes constant voltage spikes created by this so ours is bye bye.
Got ours the other day and installed it today. If there was an extra 1/8 inch between where you unplug the OBD connector and harness in the kick panel/hood release it would have taken 20 seconds. A little tight so I ended up putting the driver seat all the way back and reclining it fully and...
You have to remember, your Golf TDI has a lot of torque, as does the 2.0, near 100 ft lbs more than the 1.5 and makes in more enjoyable to drive. We drove both a 1.5 and 2.0, the 1.5 reminds me of what we traded in, a mazda cx3 with a underpowered engine that always seemed like it was working...
having my wifes new badlands ceramic coated on Thurs. 8th, will pick it up Sat by a reputable detailer. Thinking of trying to do my 15 VW Golf myself, it has 140K and paint is chipped and swirled already so just looking to make it easier to keep clean
Just ordered and should be in my hands by April 1st. It's my wifes veh and she hates the auto start/stop as wellhttps://www.autostopeliminator.com/collections/ford/products/2021-ford-bronco-sport-autostop-eliminator
Did about 60 miles on Sat. and I was worried at first. I'm about 5'10" and 210, seat width was more than fine but I drive about 1000 miles a week in a 15 VW Golf TDI and my legs and back are used to my legs being straight out and seat kinda far back. I've found as a driver or passenger I've...
We picked up the wife's bd/bd package last week. IMO I would have liked the de-icer, built in garage remote and memory seats. This is my wife's veh that she fell in love with and the only demand I had was a badlands for it's 2.0 versus the 1.5 and we just hit 200 miles. I was out and about...
Picked up our badlands/bl package with 360 Weds. I have never gotten an extended warranty,,,ironic since I do contract work for most of them but with all the tech on this I opted for Prem care, 8/125, 100 ded. and got it for 2200. I could have gotten same coverage from say CNA, Allstate or...
We actually bought what was slotted to be a mannequin. Story goes we were going to order a badlands in carbonized gray and the dealer said he had one coming in on a stock order. Once it arrived 7 weeks later he found that it was not to be sold. The dealer owner contacted Ford and explained what...
