Performance Vehicle Features
Checking Engine Oil
Your vehicle may have a high-performance dry sump lubrication system. This system operates differently than a standard engine lubrication system. See Engine Oil 0 232.
Check the oil level only after the engine has been thoroughly warmed up and then check between five and 10 minutes of shutoff. This ensures that the oil level reading obtained will be accurate.
Brake Noise
Under certain weather or operating conditions, occasional brake squeals may be heard with the vehicle’s performance braking system. This brake system is designed for superior fade resistance and consistent operation using high-performance brake pads. Brake squeal is normal and does not affect system performance.
Tire Chatter/Hop
When driving at slow speeds and in very tight turns, the vehicle may have tire chatter/hop. This condition is normal and the vehicle does not require service.
Road Imperfections/Crown Effects
The vehicle’s precise steering and handling make it very responsive to road surface feedback. A slight pull may be felt in the steering depending on the crown of the road and/or other road surface variations such as troughs or ruts. This is normal and the vehicle does not require service.
Engine Oil Life System
The engine oil life system calculates engine oil life based on vehicle use and displays a Driver Information Center (DIC) message when it is necessary to change the engine oil and filter. The oil life system should be reset to 100% only following an oil change.
Dry Sump Engine Break-In Oil Change
If equipped with a dry sump engine, the initial oil and filter change must be performed at 800 km/500 mi. Follow the engine oil life system for every oil change thereafter.
Resetting the Oil Life System
- Scroll through the DIC Info Pages menu until the REMAINING OIL LIFE percentage is displayed. See Driver Information Center (DIC).
- Press and hold SEL on the DIC while the Oil Life display is active. The oil life will change to 100%.
Caution
Some automatic car washes can cause damage to the vehicle, wheels, or convertible top,
if equipped. Automatic car washes are not recommended, due to lack of clearance for the undercarriage and/or wide rear tires and wheels. See “Washing the Vehicle” under Exterior Care.
Warning
Leaving children in a vehicle with a Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter is dangerous and children or others could be seriously injured or killed. They could operate the power windows or other controls or make the vehicle move. The windows will function with the RKE transmitter in the vehicle, and children or others could be caught in the path of a closing window. Do not leave children in a vehicle with an RKE transmitter.
The Keyless Access system can be programmed to unlock both doors on the first door handle sensor press from the driver door. See Vehicle Personalization.
If equipped with memory seats, RKE transmitters 1 and 2 are linked to seating positions of memory 1 or 2. See Memory Seats 0 60.
Keyless Unlocking
Press the door handle sensor to unlock and open the doors if the RKE transmitter is within 1 m (3 ft). Pull the door handle to unlatch the door. See Door Locks 0 34 and
“Passive Door Unlock” under Vehicle Personalization.
Passive Locking
Keyless Access will lock several seconds after all doors are closed if the vehicle is off and at least one transmitter has been removed or none remain in the vehicle.
The fuel door will also lock.
If other electronic devices interfere with the RKE transmitter signal, the vehicle may not detect the RKE transmitter inside the vehicle.
If passive locking is enabled, the doors may lock with the RKE transmitter inside the vehicle. Do not leave the RKE transmitter in an unattended vehicle. To customize whether the doors automatically lock when exiting the vehicle, see “Passive Door Lock” under Vehicle Personalization.
