Double check that, i think you will find that the wiring is probably for the sub mounted inside the spare.Mark Booth wrote:The Tire Pressure Monitoring system is very basic. There's a Low Tire Pressure indicator light in the gauge cluster. It lights if one tire gets low but doesn't tell you which one of the four is low.
Interestingly, the manual specifically states that the system does NOT monitor the spare tire. Yet, there is CLEARLY a wiring harness attached to the spare tire in the area of where a valve stem would be. I haven't take the spare cover off yet to see where the wiring harness actually goes but I strongly suspect that there was a last-minute change to add tire pressure monitoring to the spare.
BTW, the manual's instructions on spare removal (flat tire change) say nothing about the wiring harness nor does the graphic shown depict a harness. But a wiring harness is DEFINITELY there on my EX and it absolutely has something to do with the spare tire.
Weird!

You can set the LDW so the default position is "OFF" The beeping can be annoying, but you need LDW on for the LDP to work. IMO this is more suited to long distance driving.Mark Booth wrote:I wasn't really planning to get the Technology Package (Around-View Camera, Lane Departure Warning, Intelligent Cruise Control). But the dealer had the color I wanted with the interior I liked plus all of the other packages I wanted and the Tech Package just happened to be on it too. So, I figured, what the hell!
Frankly, I don't really think I'll make much use of the Around-View system. But it is pretty trick and makes for a good showoff of the car! It adds a lot to the overall "gadgety" nature of the EX and I have to admit I really like "gadgets".
The best part of the Tech Package is the Intelligent Cruise Control! That really works well and, frankly, by itself it made me happy I got the Tech Package.
The Lane Departure Warning System gets a thumbs down from me. It beeps at you when you're just merging onto an off ramp and you happen to get too close to the solid white line on the right. The beeping isn't too terribly annoying but it is slightly annoying. I think I'm going to end up turning it off.

Are they marking them up over sticker price?starstreak wrote:So how much did you pay for the car? Hawaii has ONE dealer. I can bet there is no markdowns.
How much is the sales tax rate?starstreak wrote:In Hawaii, they say they don't mark up(infiniti/lexus/bmw) but they don't really markdown. You can still get them to go lower sometimes, but since Hawaii has one dealer for each, they normally dont.
Well, that explains it! I was not aware that they put a sub in the spare! No wonder the audio system sounds so good!Dodgeyaussie wrote:

Yeah, a simple button press on the steering wheel (on the lower right) turns off/on the LDW.Dodgeyaussie wrote:

All dealerships nationwide got 4 EX's on the 21st. You won't see many more in dealerships until mid January when the media blitz starts.
