And, worse, didn't even look at the menu system you can see to, just maybe, work sorta a little like it works.Using them is like navigating through a menu system that you can't see. It's like it was written by computer engineers who don't drive.
It definitely is more for aero purposes as well as keeping water, debris etc out of the engine bay. But I also hate it. I actually took mine to a shop for the oil change last time because I didn't want to mess with the stupid skid plate.This one more is personal preference.
I find the need to remove the skid plate in order to change the oil very annoying.. but that's probably due to years of conditioning of never ever doing it before. Ever.
what is the "skid plate"exactly ?
If simply a skid plate, then access holes/panels at key points would have been easy to implement, and not affect "skid functions"
On the other hand, if its for aerodynamic reasons..
I'd trade whatever marginal gains that gives for 10 minute DIY oil changes any day.
Fast oil change = :thumbs up:
Yeah, that thin metal wouldn't do much from a protection perspective. I had mine off about a month ago and I didn't mind it. But I'm coming from a Subaru with the annoying plastic under tray held on mostly by plastic retaining clips. That was truly annoying, since they inevitably break or fall out.It definitely is more for aero purposes as well as keeping water, debris etc out of the engine bay. But I also hate it.

That's the difference. I need to get some tall rampsIf you think this piece of aluminum sheet is unnecessary (which it is) what’s the problem? Just unscrew it and toss it, sell it on ebay, recycle it, or keep it and put it back on when selling/turning in/trading in the car.
I’ll keep it on because it takes me a minute to remove/ replace. But I lift the front wheels on the ramps high enough to work completely comfortably under the car.
Really mine has gotten hit by rocks on the highway on several occasions and been fine knock on wood..but yeah the windshield are very cheap I just replaced mine at 30k but I drive a lot (2018)Two things but really they are sort of related. The flimsy windshield and wipers. A leaf hits it and the windshield chips. The wipers are garbage. They chatter like crazy and just make the whole experience feel cheap. I'll need to swap out the blades and it hasn't even been a year. And I've already replaced my windshield, too.
Oh that horrible feeling of a hunted rabbit when the salesman approaches....Having a salesperson hit me up every time I go in for service. My stealer is always wanting me to prolong my debt. Other than that, my car does not know it lives in Arizona, where almost the whole state does not have to change the clock twice a year, so I have to read the manual twice a year.
Race BrakesssssssssssThe fucking Brembo squeal drives me NUTS.
Seriously. Mine was used and came with chips but damn.....How easily the paint F ing chips.
LOL yup! Just had to deal with that myself not too long ago!!Other than that, my car does not know it lives in Arizona, where almost the whole state does not have to change the clock twice a year, so I have to read the manual twice a year.
