Does anyone's phone (thru hands free) answer calls without ringing?

Can that be set to ring first? Very surprising to go right to a phone call without ringing when driving.

Thanks

I believe that is a setting within your phone, not the truck. Check your phones bluetooth settings, it seems like I recall seeing an option in there to answer immediately when connected to bluetooth,,,,,

Ronin Factory makes a replacement drain plug that makes you able to regulate the speed at which the oil comes out, so you are in much better control and are less likely to get oil all over your garage floor.

I am interested in this product. Does anyone have actual experience with it?

I bought the Ronin Factory oil drain plug, but the dealership gave me a free oil change so I didn't get to install it yet. ha. So I do have the product, if you have any questions about that just let me know.

‘Thanks ever so much for this info on how to fine tune the fuel mileage that the truck reports. My truck always reports almost one mile per gallon higher than it actually is, so now I can correct this.

Most of my other vehicles are very close to the hand-calculated value and my 2017 Honda CR-V has always been spot on, so it makes the truck stand out as far too optimistic.

Thanks again, Roofis!

I get a message/warning on the gauge/display that says washer fluid is low.

Default What does this connector go to?

I was hopeful someone could identify what this connector goes to? Appreciate any help,as I have been unable to determine what this is for; either through internet searches or in the owners manual.

Again, thanks for the help.

WTH?
