shrunk Member 34 Member For: 12y 11m 29d Gender: Male Location: Christchurch, New Zealand Posted 01/05/12 01:46 AM Share Posted 01/05/12 01:46 AM Only owned her a couple weeks, and have a couple questions I havent been able to answer using search so far....1. How the hell do you retract / fold in the side mirrors?? Hoping the answer to this isnt 'manually'!2. iPhone integration / music playback was working ok, display said 'not supported' but still able to skip tracks with steering wheel controls etc, but now it's simply identifying the phone as 'auxillary' and steering controls no longer work.. any ideas? I haven't updated the OS on the iPhone at all during this time.3. Boot popper on key remote - should this actually 'pop' the boot open, or simply unlock it?Other than the above, pretty stoked with the car so far - priced up a local xcal3 tune and injectors so that will be on the cards as soon as I can convince the wife that it's all in the interest of economy gains...

Guest XR09 Guests Posted 01/05/12 02:33 AM Share Posted 01/05/12 02:33 AM 1. Hit it with your hip2. You don't mention the year model of the car. There was a blutooth upgrade somtime in 09. $400 squid if I remember correctly.3.. Yes just unlocks. Boot lid usually too full of water to lift itself.

tuono Member 312 Member For: 14y 5m 3d Posted 01/05/12 02:38 AM Share Posted 01/05/12 02:38 AM My old ipod classic and iphone played up too. Get a new ipod nano and put all your music on that. Its nice and small, stays in the car permantly and works great. Much better option. Try updating your iphone also. On 01/05/2012 at 2:33 AM, XR09 said: 1. Hit it with your hip2.

Guest XR09 Guests Posted 01/05/12 02:53 AM Share Posted 01/05/12 02:53 AM Think the GT's are a g5 and better at it. I took the spolier off my XR and it's a one finger thing now. The spoiler sucks anyway. Didn't even make a decent ironing board.
