	Sitting on the patio, warm night in Indiana, drinking golden margaritas, eating spamakopia, have a fire in the fire pit and listening to Patsy Cline. I'm reminded of a poem I read as a child, "God's in his heaven and all's well in the world".

	  Exterior Key Pad - No code...enigma-2 replied to nittanydoug's topic in Alarms, Keyless Entry, Locks & Remote Start Yes, you can program a couple of codes, one for you, one for your wife. Depending on which code is entered will determine which seat & mirror setting is configured.

	I believe it usually means that one of the doors are not closed. Possibly a door switch is going bad.

	  Exterior Key Pad - No code...enigma-2 replied to nittanydoug's topic in Alarms, Keyless Entry, Locks & Remote Start There should be a card with the code on it in a plastic pocket in the back of your owner's manual. If it's missing, it's located on a sticker under the instrument cluster. The code is a 4 digit code and also has a barcode on the sticker.

	Believe that export models sold in desert regions also have drain plugs along with specific drain intervals.

	  HVAC System Question - Vents Stuck ?enigma-2 replied to ash042679's topic in Interior, A.C., Heat, Interior Trim Can't identify the code. The service manual I have is for 09 &10 and all of the codes start with "B" (nothing starts with "A"). Perhaps someone else can chime in who has a service manual for the 08.

	  HVAC System Question - Vents Stuck ?enigma-2 replied to ash042679's topic in Interior, A.C., Heat, Interior Trim Why don't you try running the HVAC module in the diagnostic mode and see if it spits out any DCT's. Press the OFF button and DEFROST buttons simultaneously, then release and press the AUTO button within two seconds. You should see flashing bars and then the DTC codes will appear. On mine (just did thes to make certain that I had the right combo) I am seeing 88 88 as the codes (no codes displayed,my system is working perfectly. 88 88 is end code). Afterwards, press the DEFROST button to put the system back into opetation. It sounds to me as if the HVAC Control Module is at fault. (Did you check all fuses related to the HVAC system)?

	Here's the history of why they resended the code back in 2013. (And why it's still confusing as to whether it's needed or not). ($200 fine.) https://www.bhwlawfirm.com/license-plate-law-in-texas-front-license-plate/

	Taxi cabs are known to rely on oil testing rather than rules-of-thumb, for determining when to change oil. (After all, when running a fleet of cars unnecessary maintenance can be the difference between profit and loss). Am oil tester isn't really all that expensive, such as the one in thw URL below. Couple of drops on the sensor and you know the real condition of your oil. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00HBAG9AC/ref=pd_aw_sim_263_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=X7DS89R60GV23HA1WMJ6&dpPl=1&dpID=61C02MWRsHL

	Heh heh, was thinking the noise might be traced to a failing water pump dumping coolant into the oil along with defective timing chain guides.

	Tree sap, as bad as it is on glass, is even worst on the paint of your car. It's important to get it off the paint as soon as possible. The following URL's may be helpful in understanding what's involved. https://www.yourmechanic.com/article/how-to-remove-sap-from-a-car http://thegarage.jalopnik.com/you-can-use-hand-sanitizer-to-remove-tree-sap-from-your-1778908321 Nail polish remover to remove sap on glass: http://lifehacker.com/5903634/get-sap-off-your-cars-windshield-with-nail-polish-remover .

	"Right" as you are facing the engine or right when sitting the drivers seat? Just to rule it out, check your oil and see if it still looks good.

	From the owners manual "Your vehicle is equipped with the Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor system, which displays a message in the information display at the proper oil change interval. This interval may be up to one year or 10000 miles (16000 kilometers)." Personally I follow the information in my OM (give or take) as I do a lot of short drives and question whether the oil ever gets hot for long enough periods to burn out the condensation and whatnot. [added after] Mine is every 5000 miles or every 6 months. So for you and your warranty, you can do either, monitor OR miles. Both are acceptable.

	Wow, you rwally like to push the envelope lol. According to the study that posted here a little while ago, a clogged air filter won't significantly affect fuel economy, but it can hurt acceleration by 6% to 11%. Yours may not be clogged, but I would have pulled it and cleaned the bugs out at 30k. I change mine every year, whether it needs it or not. Cheap and easy to do.
