I've noticed delays of that long after making updates to the card (whether copying new music or playlists). Without making changes, no delays. I suspect the MMI does some caching of the folder...

One more confirmation that the transmission lurches at low speed does come back after the reflash. In my case, it's still way better than before the reflash, and took about 6k miles from the reflash...

I've never seen it remotely close (readout at fill up compared to actual mileage when close to empty). Even though fill ups are shy a couple gallons of the stated tank capacity, that still doesn't...

I use the previous destinations as well. I haven't had a need to use anything other than this or my phone's contacts. But perhaps this is because I have my phone with me all the time, whereas the OP...

I've been on a number of conference calls in the car, and when I'm not speaking, it's on mute. The radio audio doesn't turn on of course during these times. So it seems that when this issue happens,...

Very well put! With max torque possible early and over a wide rev range, we get max HP for that rpm, and this may be higher than other cars' output at that rpm. So the car is noticeably more powerful...

Surprised me as well why the touchpad isn't here, when other 2013 models already have it. So much quicker input I think.

It's hard to get over past history, especially with purchases of this size. Just like a new model year, it's often better to wait a bit and see if any issues come up by going to the new plant.
