Interesting Bits Inside Your Euro..

hmm I was hoping we could hold a button down or something to remember the speed.


Do our Euros have heated power mirrors?

In the manual it says:
"When you turn on the rear window demister, the power mirror heaters also turn on."
It doesnt mention 'For some types'

EuroDude - very good question regarding power mirror heaters... hmmm

Only Canada gets it.

Dunno if other manual cars can do it (dont think my civic could):

If the car is stationary and in first gear, then you slowly let out the clutch WITHOUT pressing on the accelerator at all, the car will launch normally without stalling.

It's a property of an engine with torque. The corvette could do that with 4th gear!

I see. 4th gear? thats hektic

Better yet, if you use the accelerator and clutch, the Covette can take off in 5th and accelerate up to over 200km/h. Top Gear got 160mph (256km/h) before they ran out of runway.

Is there a way to change it so the fan only jumps up to setting 2 or 3?
When activating the defroster, I need to lower the fan speed manually which is a hassle.

\yo! i just figured this out 2nite!!!

press the defroster thingo, it will be blowing really hard right??

just press the DOWN button for the fan speed...that's how u adjust it! :D

And if you want a 1 button setting for demisting the front, press the vent button once. The first mode is windscreen and feet, which is the same mode if you press the front demister button.

Yeah thats what I meant about changing the fan speed manually - after the defroster is turned on. I'm too lazy to press more than one button lol :p

True, although you also need to press the A/C button as well to effectively remove the frost.
