Rear seat heaters not working. button press results only in the lights activating for half a second and off. Same effect both side. Front seat heaters are fine.

Is it as simple as blown fuse 4 or 80?

The headlight leveling sensor lasts 289,598 miles, and then your headlights start dancing every time you come to a stop.

In reference to post #92. Checked fuses 4 and 80, both are good visually, one is 5 A and other is 20 A.

Any idea how to go about troubleshooting the rear seat heat not working. Currently the button activates the light for half a second and goes off. Long press does nothing as well.

Passenger side wheel bearing exhibited too much play, looks like a wheel bearing job is in the near future.

Sunroof broke
Coolant tank pissed on something...colant level is fine.. not doing it anymore, but theres a big splash of white stuff on inner fender

Door handle carrier, once again same side.
Nav screen dead pixels expanded.

im sure theres more..... but this is the fastest stuff happened to it in such a short time.
