Saabretooth 2nd Gear February 2, 2013 Share February 2, 2013 Yea.... a healthier battery places less load on the engine. The Nano thing helps with battery conditioning, it doesn't prevent dead batteries, it just keeps it healthier for longer. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And maybe with a Q4-ttroporte drive train as an option too... Well the Ferrari donk in a Maser is old news -what do you think sits under the hood now? Detuned of course. Marchionne is totally right re reentry to US. Get the right product then the right dealership then prepare an awesome launch (the latter is a no brainer - AR has plenty of style and experience in that front). And he is totally right to DELAY the 159 replacement untilit is right - I did just that with one of our products that was presented to me as a fait accompli last October. It was not what we showed nor tested with consumers so I stopped the project and now it will be six months late to market. But a key feature that is both functional and beautiful and patented and proven technology - get it right or dont do it!! And in the end the reengineered solution is even BETTER than what we originally showed :) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW this is 159 here. how old is your car? you might want to take a look at your oil pump. if you keep on adding oil, there is either leak somewhere or your engine is burning oil.. do you have black stains at your exhaust tips?

Chrispie 5th Gear February 3, 2013 Share February 3, 2013 our cars always have a lot of problems.. but, i realized that no matter what is is, it seldom renders your car undrivable. rem my 'refuse to downshift' issue after first crank up issue? I can totally avoid taht by not cranking car quickly after inserting the key. After the selespeed primed after door opening, i will insert the key and there will be s secondary 'eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee', which after i will crank the car after the sound is over. And for sure no downshift issue after that. Only sian thing is i will be delayed about 5s before i can drive off in the morning. maybe thats how she is.. after opening her up.. after the insertion.. has to wait till she's totally ready before she can really gets moving.
