The hill assist light on the dash is on. As embarrassed as I am to say, I bought the car like this. When I asked the sales rep about the light being on, he told me it meant the hill assist was "on". When I put my truck in 4WD a light come on the dash so I thought OK...I'm good with it being on. I was looking up something totally different in the owners manual and found if the light on the dash is on the hill assist is not functioning. I was pissed. Anyhow it doesn't impact driving the car so I thought I'd wait till the next 5K maintenance trip to have it fixed. If it is malfunctioning, it will be a warranty repair. | ||

At 30K service, I'd noticed some oil seepage at the front differential and took it to dealer for closer look. Dye was added to try and pinpoint source of leak, and after driving ~6k miles, found that oil leak at CVT oil pump. Entire CVT was replaced, as manufacturer doesn't authorize dealer to service the assembly. Intermittent AC not blowing cold air. Looks like my AC issue is related to a known defect with some compressors within a certain date range. This was noted under TSB-10-84-16; dealer had me get s/n of compressor to confirm that it falls within the range. Compressor ordered and will bring in car for replacement. Intermittent starter issues which eventually lead to dead battery. Dealer ran battery diagnostics and identified it as faulty, and replaced under warranty | ||

Intake valve cleaning. I believe this is an issue with all direct injected cars that do not have any Air/ Fuel mixture going by the intake valves. I removed my intake at 14K miles and saw the build up starting. I removed it with carb cleaner and small wire brushes. I used CRC intake valve cleaner into a central port on the intake at 20K miles. I'm a 30K now, so sometime around 40k I will remove the intake again and do a second manual cleaning with the CRC spray. | ||
