lmp180psu Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 My 2005 Acura TL didn't have a low windshield fluid warning either, so I guess I am not missing anything lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elle Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Living in CA I would probably never notice. It's rare I run out of fluid before my scheduled maintenance. Now if I were still back east, that would be another matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Strike- Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Hell, my 84 and 88 Nissans have the sensors. My traded in 04 Explorer had it. Maybe I've just been spoiled with vehicles that do have the warning light. Like I said, not upset or anything, just a little shocked. Also didn't think I would have used a whole tank yet, but I do go through a ton in the winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey151 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Well that's one I would have never missed. And we're all aware we are supposed to look under the hood occasionally, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terryblauser Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 My '10 FFH obviously didn't have one cause right after the 30k service I tried to wash the windshield and found the pump dry. The gazillion point inspection was obviously pencil whipped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morcelu Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I took delivery last night! I only got to drive it home, but so far I am loving it. I'll post some pics once the sun comes up 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morcelu Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) OK, so it's been pouring rain today and I haven't been able to take any pics. Hopefully it will let up before dark so I can get some. One question of anyone with an SE 2.0L model: Did your car have the Ecoboost badge? Mine doesn't, which I thought was odd. I was thinking about debadging the car anyway, and this makes it easier, but I didn't know if anyone else had an SE 2.0L with no Ecoboost badge. ETA: Here's some quick shots Edited January 10, 2013 by Morcelu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missileman88 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) Congrats. Love that color! By the way I agree with you that if the car has a 1.6L or 2.0L ecoboost engine then it should get an ecoboost badge.

hermans Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Yes, there should have been an EcoBoost badge on the car. They missed it. Only the 2.5 looks like that. Look on the underside of the frame for tic-tac-toe games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look on the underside of the frame for tic-tac-toe games. I noticed his license plate was blanked out so assigned a custom badge, now that looks better!

I guess they stay in the position while they are turned on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
