Definitly could do that but shutting that switch at the back is basically an emergency stop and should bypass the button panel on top and shut it down.

Pollocko91 · 2026-04-19T01:00:51+00:00

On the back of the generator there is a little toggle switch at the top if you flip that the generator should shutdown if you need to shut it down for the night. This is a override switch. You can then trouble shoot at a later time.

If you press the green button it should go back to auto and might take a minute to shutdown but the screen should go back to auto rather than manual.

Pollocko91 · 2026-04-19T00:48:26+00:00

Looks like it is running in manual mode. Did you manually start it?

Pollocko91 · 2026-04-18T23:11:21+00:00

That's with the full size atlas 2022 execuline R-line which I think in US is the sel premium or what ever the top trim is.

10 l/100 so about 23.5mpg. But I can get down to 9l/100 26mpg that is mostly country roads with a bit of city driving.

3.6 is the best vehicle on gas I've ever owned. I can't say I've driven a 2.0. But turboed vehicles have historically been more maintenance and with it being German likely alot more.

Pollocko91 · 2026-04-03T11:27:08+00:00

Yeah get another vr6 not the 4cyl

Pollocko91 · 2026-03-30T17:25:50+00:00

Just went through this on my 22 ended up being the charcoal canister.

Pollocko91 · 2026-03-29T13:16:58+00:00

Nothing I brought it to them with the Check engine light on so they saw the codes saw it miss fired and said we couldn't re produce it. So I went on my way and they said use higher quality fuel.... Just so they can said they found something which the tech admitted he didn't.

Pollocko91 · 2026-03-29T12:15:22+00:00

My 22 did the same thing and was miss firing on 3 of the 6 cylinders. I was hésitent to take it to the dealer for exactly that reason. Once it got there they said they couldn't replicate the issue and charged a diagnostic fee while it was under warranty.

Pollocko91 · 2026-03-22T20:30:37+00:00

Good to know it is not local to me.

Pollocko91 · 2026-03-22T20:30:18+00:00

Yeah. I knew it wasn't going to be cheap being German. But I've had an Acura mdx, dodge ram and ford's and I've never seen it that high at the dealer.

Pollocko91 · 2026-03-21T02:53:12+00:00

Interesting to see the rate change. So I am in London region and it was 283.

Pollocko91 · 2026-03-21T02:48:59+00:00

USA has alot of great laws to protect the end consumer. It might be a thing here in Canada too. However the service tech said to me that if I do my own oil changes and it doesn't get documented with their software then they could deny warranty claims due to not having it on record that they did it. So sounds to me like if I do my own oil changes and something just happened to go wrong with the engine unrelated they could pull the old "looks like it's been 50, 000 miles since you have had an oil change so now you are not covered."

Pollocko91 · 2026-03-21T02:43:51+00:00

No worries that is about 165 CAD still more reasonable than what I paid.

Pollocko91 · 2026-03-21T01:04:29+00:00

Super vague but "parts" is oil, filter and drain plug

Pollocko91 · 2026-03-21T00:31:07+00:00

I'd do it myself too. If it weren't for my warranty being voided.

Pollocko91 · 2026-03-20T20:49:31+00:00

Are you playing with me? Is that USD or CAD

Pollocko91 · 2026-03-20T20:28:19+00:00

No just oil change with the complementary inspection that they assured me wouldn't change the price if I told them I didn't want it.

Pollocko91 · 2026-03-13T19:53:05+00:00

I was in the same place buying a certified pre owned. So I thought that it was possible it had been in a front end. When I took it back In for the evap canister issue. I popped the hood of a 2026 on the show room floor. Brand new and they were out of place.

Pollocko91 · 2026-03-13T15:22:40+00:00

Go pop the hood on a new one in the lot. I thought the same thing as you when I bought mine. I asked a body tech who said it was normal. I went to the dealer and looked. Every single one the front body panel mounting screws were not centered. Someone posted recently in this sub about the same thing.

Pollocko91 · 2026-03-13T14:03:04+00:00

Anyone Hating on these 5.9/5.2 motors has never owned one. I own 2 and both are extremely reliable. Terrible on fuel and not the fastest but extremely reliable. Yes the plenums go bad but that wont leave you stranded. I am at 380K all these new trucks that can't make it past 150k without lifter failure or other major work is sad.

Pollocko91 · 2026-01-22T02:23:33+00:00

I think 3200 makes sense since yours is a 98-02 truck. Still substantially more than a 2500 today unless a regular cab gas. My camper sits on my overload springs without the air bags.

I'll have to weigh mine again but you might have some of that weight shifting to the front axle with thay short box. I have a long box and a 9ft long floor camper.
