hmm, dipstick... I wonder how that'll tell the level? The only thing I can think of is if the dipstick is white and the fluid is pink, then you'd check it like you check the oil dipstick. It is one way to reduce the cost (instead of a light bulb, transmitter, receiver and computer chip). Also, good point on the solar panels. How useful would that be to those of us in the north? Granted, there's a disable button but given that there is no light that I can see on the button itself, how do you know if it's engaged/disengaged and do you have to do it every time you park in the winter?

Friends: 36 | Re: Low Washer Fluid Light The dipstick has tiny Horizontal slots in it which hold the washer fluid. You will see fluid at the level in the reservoir, above the level will have dry slots. |

Friends: 14 | Re: Low Washer Fluid Light I still think we don't know about traction control. She confirmed that traction control limits wheel spin, but that is almost the definition of traction control. We still don't know if it is less aggressive, provides differential braking, or simply the same as before. If Erica reads this, perhaps she can check for us. Tom |
