You should have bought the "extended" warranty.

How come no one mentions the seat belt chimes when you go-over 5mph?

Note on long oil check times: This usually only happens after you've run the car and then try to check the oil. If you check the car before starting it, the oil meter takes 15 seconds or less.
...maybe you're supposed to check the oil when it is in the pan (and not still draining from the engine) and that why you have to wait...duh, ya

You should try the C4S. Her rear is more shapely.

Mine chimes at 16mph, although that feels like 5mph.

You guys know that after 5 minutes the chime shuts off right? In my Cayenne it just goes off forever.

Wow, I've never endured the chime for 5 minutes, I have a newfound respect for you Shawn! Although, I'm sure you could drown our the noise with your music loud, windows down and the symphony your car plays. How do like your headers and intake? Any issues as far as warranty?

Thinking of doing the same thing. I never drive it in regular mode at all. Which one you're thinking of doing? The orange plug or that hose?

You dont need them to do it. Really simple, Just pull the hose off and zip tie it somewhere.

The X51 has it in a different location. Just have to find it and pull it off.
