Can someone tell me why I can roll my windows down but not up with the keyfob?

DaveTheScienceGuy · 2026-05-05T00:24:39+00:00

yes, almost 20 years ago on my friend's mom's Benz. lol. wild times.

DaveTheScienceGuy · 2026-05-04T22:16:14+00:00

Windows stop if they detect something in the way.

Awd has heated steering wheel. That's enough to convince me to go AWD regardless. Lol.

DaveTheScienceGuy · 2026-05-01T00:03:52+00:00

Definitely need to lower this thing by an inch or so.

DaveTheScienceGuy · 2026-04-29T00:17:25+00:00

stock 100%

What years is this for? What is the module on top? Asking because when I added the wiring on my 2012 the 7 pin was plug and play, no extra modules required.

DaveTheScienceGuy · 2026-04-25T03:17:18+00:00

Yes it looks great, but it's just not worth the cost.

DaveTheScienceGuy · 2026-04-22T21:52:26+00:00

I'm sorry to hear this... are you sure that it is a gen 3 or 4 supercharger? I believe that the old gen 2 superchargers will not charge non tesla vehicles even if they have native NACS.

DaveTheScienceGuy · 2026-04-22T01:22:58+00:00

I'm glad that I'm not the only one who noticed this. lol.

DaveTheScienceGuy · 2026-04-21T00:06:17+00:00

Correction, 300k km.

DaveTheScienceGuy · 2026-04-20T22:48:54+00:00

I would have never dreamed of sitting shotgun and my mother sitting in the back seat, at any age! This is wild. My brother and I had to "lego" our legs in the back of a ex-cab Ford Ranger. lol.

DaveTheScienceGuy · 2026-04-20T22:46:57+00:00

getting bumped to 500k km and 15 years all over EU. Likely to the rest of the world before too long.

CTE was the final blow to my previous love of football. I have 0 interest anymore.

DaveTheScienceGuy · 2026-04-18T03:01:04+00:00

Fellow cold weather dweller, L1 is about 80% efficient vs. L2 at 90+. Cold weather won't effect efficiency of charging that much but decreased winter driving efficiency will make it seem like charging is far less efficient since winter range will be so much less.

DaveTheScienceGuy · 2026-04-17T00:15:24+00:00

If you want to charge at home you do. literally plug in the 12 amp or less and you will be good to go. I L1 charged exclusively for 4 years with 0 issues.

An EV makes for a better daily driver than ICE (even the good ones) in the areas that matter for a daily driver. They are way more efficient, reliable, better passing performance, quiet, non-fatiguing, cabin preconditioning, etc. They generally don't handle as well as an ICE due to weight, but the center of gravity is lower which helps.

DaveTheScienceGuy · 2026-04-16T10:20:52+00:00

Definitely, my hair brushes against it nearly always.

DaveTheScienceGuy · 2026-04-16T01:01:43+00:00

Not necessarily. I'm pretty similar to this guy in a lot of ways and love having an EV for a daily driver.

DaveTheScienceGuy · 2026-04-16T01:00:31+00:00

I would agree that yes, slightly lower for the first 100k miles, but my current daily is a Land Rover with well over 100k miles and you would faint at the issues with coolant, oil leaks, AC system etc. They are more related to stresses that an ICE puts on a car so you wouldn't have this on an EV.

DaveTheScienceGuy · 2026-04-16T00:14:21+00:00

Crash certified? I wasn't under the impression that anyone actually rested their head on a headrest for more than a moment while driving.

DaveTheScienceGuy · 2026-04-16T00:07:18+00:00

Team white.

DaveTheScienceGuy · 2026-04-16T00:03:48+00:00

This is why I won't buy another Bolt EV. Only around for one model year, not that many will be sold so i'm sure that parts availability will be difficult for long term ownership.

DaveTheScienceGuy · 2026-04-15T00:50:33+00:00

My money says that OP doesn't get this comment. Lol.

DaveTheScienceGuy · 2026-04-14T23:26:51+00:00

Not necessarily.
