    Air Suspension no longer lowers at highway speeds (FW update v5.8)

    I upgraded from the p85 to the p85+ because of the the difference in handling.It was an expensive move and had i known they would have disabled the smart suspension feature with the latest download ,I never would have installed it.I could understand they don't want the bad press from another...

    Second Fire cause by impact with a metal object. Recall necessary?

    I think the biggest problem is being overlooked. As cars need to become more efficient to meet new guidelines ,they will need to be lower to the ground at highway speeds. Road debris on the major highways will become more of an issue in the future as more cars get lower. Maybe it could be...

    Thank You, The wheels were powder coated and so far the wrap has been very easy to clean and very durable. If you are considering a wrap make sure you check the installers previous jobs. I have seen jobs where the seams were placed in noticable areas. I used Signature Wraps in Oakland Park...

    Anyone got SunPass working yet? (Florida)

    I had the sunpass mounted in the nose. It does not work. It does work directly under the rear view mirror. If you keep your sunpass account updated ,you get billed the same when your plate gets read at the toll, Without the sunpass even in the car.
