FORScan can change tire circumference settings along with many others. And it's only $12 for the full version. However if you aren't careful you can brick your car, so follow the instructions carefully and backup your as-built configuration before changing anything...
I like this technician. Very clear and detailed description of the work they did. And, they seem to have solved a very strange problem with an inexpensive part rather than a whole new engine.
@rltotten you probably should redact your personal info on the invoice...never know what unsavory...
On the subject, MT barely got 11,000 miles out of a set of OE Wildpeak AT3W's, and found that the aftermarket version had 8/32" more tread!

That said, I've gotten 40,000 miles out of my OE...
CR-V...Yawn. That goes for every other egg-shaped crossover/compact SUV, they all look the same and compromise their cargo capacity with the sloping rear profile.
I looked at the Passport when it first came out, but it seemed overpriced for what it was, just a smaller version of the...
Tesla enjoyed strong sales for the first 10 years because they were the first viable long-range EV to market. Now they face competition from the legacy automakers and they have to drop their prices. Also the supply chain caught up (mostly) post-COVID, interest rates skyrocketed (reducing...
Had to have my "media hub" replaced under warranty. Sounds like you have the same issue.

Seems like the most obvious answer and yet there are technicians installing expensive new CV axles over and over. A wise man once told me about troubleshooting, "Look for a horse, not a zebra".
I've noticed this too, feels like a manual transmission 4x4 with some backlash in the drivetrain. Maybe something to do with the way the torque converter behaves at low speed. It drives much smoother in eco mode.
In California we are required to carry chains when the signs are on even if we have 4x4 and snow tires. That said, they never make you put them on. If there is an overzealous CHP officer at the chain zone they might check that you're carrying them.
You won't likely ever need chains unless the...
I had one pop out in the first few months while I was offroading, but it wasn't too far gone and I was able to shimmy it back into place. Hasn't happened again since.
Those lights are one of the best features of the BS, every SUV should have them. They make loading in the dark so much easier...
Keep the BS for the 4WD if nothing else, otherwise you'll be kicking yourself when you're sliding around in the snow and slush. The MPG on the Mav is tempting given the price of gas (and it ain't going down anytime soon) but for me it wouldn't outweigh the security of the BS's excellent 4WD...
It's common for an already weak battery to die at the mechanic. Sometimes when they're doing diagnostics, the car is on (engine not running, radio, fan and lights running) for long periods. Or simply they leave the door open and the dome lights are on for extended periods. Lead acid batteries do...
No, but what I have noticed is that when the A/C is on, the recirc doesn't seem to turn off automatically. So far.
I guess my point is, if I push a button, it should do its job, and I shouldn't have to guess about whether it will work or not. Otherwise I might as well go buy a much cheaper...
