Trail Edition 5th gen Towing upgrade Trailedition: I have a 2011 5th gen and I tow a heavy trailer, I'm wondering if you are still happy with your upgrade?

I have a 2011 5th gen and I tow a heavy trailer, I'm wondering if you are still happy with your upgrade?

I have to date had good starting with a distance of 200-300 feet which has always been enough I can stretch it if I need to by using the steel part of the key to the chin trick from farther away. Don't need it often but it works well, many people don't know about it and sometimes it has been...

Fixed for sur In my 5th Gen factory remote start I push the lock button twice and hold the lock button on the third for more than either 3 or 5 seconds and it starts every time. I am not sure how long I just make sure to hold it plenty long like 5-10 seconds and it has never failed me. So I...

Keep in mind that since it is a known issue they would be hard pressed to deny any claim even if it was a bit late, however always better to contact them now and mention it then make a quick visit and set the appointment for when you are ready. As long as you have complained about it in person...

Do you have the TE center console But do you have the small center dash we have in the trail with the fuel economy and the DTE and the shift modes and clock?

I see you say not sure what to do, if you live in an area that get snow or even frost as we sometimes do here in Canada (although not often) then it can be great to have. For my way of thinking it was well worth the few dollars spent, but make sure your dealer does not over charge you for it...

Transmission specialist for 13 years Just a heads up from a guy who was in the business for 13 years, in most cases the likely cause of a shudder in any gear in this case 1-2 up shift is caused by some sort of fluid leak (which could be anywhere internally) causing a pressure loss and at the...

Center Console lights not full bright like the rest of the main dash I have the same complaint. For those that have responded to the question, if you have a vehicle that you can turn the lights brighter on then please go back and check because either you are mistaken or some of us have...

Bated breath for 1engineer Just have to share a small amount of useless trivia for the guy (1engineer) who seems to know everything. I mean that in the nicest way 1engineer. I have always liked your write-ups and mods and comments with good knowledge and or experience. I just need to say that...

I have a Trail and ordered the remote start for around $300-$350.00 and it is FANTASTIC, the only thing I don't like is that once it is started twice before getting in then you need to get in and start it in order to have it start again via remote system. I know this is a strange thing to say...

I keep wondering why those of us in BC don't post things, so I thought I would post something. Here goes, when can we get a number of us together for a short run? In Vancouver this Saturday Januray 5th 2013 we will be having a few of us in Triangle beach in Richmond and on Sunday we are trying...

Truck too tall? Hmmm I would also agree with the running boards comments, my only thoughts are that you can buy a wide variety of running boards and many of them are retractable allowing you to still have fairly clean lines when the truck is not being used. Just a thought for the topic. Hope...

I have had my Trail Canadian edition for about 8 months now and it is the nicest vehicle I have owned for a number of reasons. Exceptional off road, plenty of power for what I need as I tow with it, excellent gas mileage for the type of vehicle (Truck Frame) (the last body on frame SUV) In my...

Seat back pockets Or in regard to the commnt: (Passenger. I did run into my first issue, but its no problem. If you plan on folding down your rear seats, you have to remove the seat back first only takes a couple seconds). Could you just move the front seat froward a bit to make room?
