Afternoon UKP

Re: Mode button on 2016 GT doesn’t do anything

I’ve had a 2016 manual GT for a couple of months. It’s got a mode button next to the gear stick, but it doesn’t appear to do anything, other than the orange light coming on briefly when you press it. There’s nothing appears on the infotainment, no menus. Is there a setting somewhere, or something I...

Re: Tailgate trim removal - drain hose

Hey John
Just got one of these and have been told they are a common fail.
Part number directly off the part is : 510 827 861A.

Hope this helps
