Do you guy know about the Jack mode.what this for?

 

It is for things such as if you jack up the car for servicing such as oil change, tire change, etc.

To enter jack mode, on the center just behind the shifter press and hold the shock and ride height buttons until you see the Jack Mode light up on the center screen behind the steering wheel.

 

i see.this is really great function..anyway have anymore special mode of the button??

 

Yes, if you press and hold both rear wing up and down buttons the passenger seat ejects. This is great for when you have annoying passengers, especially those who feel they always need to give you directions on how to drive a car.


PS: Of course the above is humor, yet it would make for a good feature/option

 

When I first read about this mode in the manual it made me afraid of the car. I thought well crap this thing is so touchy that you have to jack it up special. Not one week into ownership the low tire warning went off and then indicated flat, scared me to death. In any other vehicle I would just be annoyed. I aired it up and made it home. Had it plugged the next day and I'm good since.

 

your name must be Ja ck for it to work

 

Does the truck had to be on? (Like completely started up)

 

Aparently, if you jack the car without locking the suspension it can / will damage the air suspension struts.

 

I had an independent mechanic replace a front bushing in the suspension and then 3 weeks later a front air shock sprung a leak. Not sure if coincidental or not. Doubt the independent used jack mode.
Ended up using dealer to replace air shock as just dont trust independent now

 

I had the same fear when getting new tires at a local tire shop. I went to great lengths to make sure they had to properly jack the car up. I left the manuel on the seat open to the correct page after going over it with the manger.

 

I always put car in jack mode when getting tire repairs. Don't know about you guys but already had two repairs for embedded nails.

I used the jacking mode when changing my brake discs and pads recently.
Best to be safe.

i always set the jack mode up before handling my car over.

 

So jack mode in a CTT 05 comes up as regulation switch OFF? Also does the car have to be started up or key just turned to the right in the ignition?

 

I usually start up the car, put it into the jackmode, and shut off the engine.
