Interesting Discoveries Thread (Good or Bad)

No windshield washer smell here, and I've had to refill it once already.

Cons: windshield washer fluid smell permeates the cabin after use, remote start doesn’t activate rear window defrost, takes far too long to initiate remote start with UVO app, subwoofers aren’t all they’re cracked up to be, no wireless support for CarPlay. Admittedly all first world problems.

Pros: All the 100s of thoughtful touches. 360 camera and dedicated front camera button is awesome, as is the responsiveness of the touch screen, and the balance between AWD grip and drift in sport mode.

Rear window defrost by remote start is coming.

Sweet! Where on earth did you uncover that? That will be a welcome addition!

Hopefully they will also be able to make the app more responsive at the same time. There is far too much waiting for the next screen, presumably because of too many (and too slow) communications with the server. It is literally quicker to do banking on my phone than remote start the car. I realize the clear advantage of remote start by cellular, but it was sooo easy to just double click a button on my previous key fob.

Huh, wish that was my experience. There is a strong smell every time I use it. I wonder if you have a less scented fluid or if there is something different with my particular car.

Same here. It almost seems like the fluid is heating up in the engine compartment, and that is why the smell is so strong.

Check your vent settings when spraying. If you have it set to bring in outside air the vents are at the base of the windshield. Set it to resirculate cabin air and spray again and see if it still smells strong.

ya, washer fluid smells a loy. I assume once I refill it after usage the smell will go away.

Not necessarily a Stinger issue as I've noticed this on my Optima as well.

My GPS doesn't show any information for military bases. It just goes blank as soon as I go through the gate.

My 4runner, Altima, and phone's GPS all work on bases.

Did you just make that up?

It’s true that’s what you do!

Ya gotta stop peeing in the bottle!

If they showed you military bases you would disappear overnight mysteriously! lol

I shared this info previously in another post, but to summarise it’s probably not going to get any faster until it becomes a paid service.

Same here as I'm in Camp Pendleton and do most of my errands on base. Quite annoying.

I thought military installations have been "blacked out" from nav systems for years (?)

Some, but not all..

MCBs Camp Lejeune and Cherry Point and Luke AFB all show up with Google maps.

Camp Lejeune and Cherry Point also show up with Toyota and Nissan's GPS.
