Weird things about your car.

[Silvrmaxx]

01 Nissan Maxima AE:

-passenger side window goes up slower than drivers side
-motor that tilts the seat bottom on the drivers seat does not work with someone in the seat
-when you close one of the 2 front doors, the hood latch creeks
-foglights turn off when highbeams are on, of course
-left side of cluster lights used to shut off randomly (fixed)
-rear suspension squeaks constantly, more when its cold
-have been through 2 sets of HID's and am working on the 3rd now... but my gf's civic has no problems with the same brand
-car came with 16" spare and had factory 17's
-if you lock the drivers door and close it, it unlocks... hafta hold the handle then lock and shut it...(i know its supposed to be like that)
-aftermarket CAI's route right next to the block and dump out right behind the radiator/condenser (which is why i dont own one)


...maybe im just a picky bastard, but other than these peeves, the car is fucking fantastic... just about 9 years old and still under 100k

Some points: The Foglights thing is a regulation requirement. Cars that come with properly wired foglights and seperate high/low beam bulbs do that. It's not weird or unique or a mistake or a wiring problem. There is a maximum number of lights that project light onto the road in front of you that a car can have on at one time, and that number is 4 bulbs. Now if your car is equipped with two-phase high/low beam bulbs you can have your high beams and your fogs on at once. There's another way to do it too, I've seen some seperate-bulb type cars that the brights have enough spread and projection that the low beams can be shut off entirely, and again fog lights can be on with brights. There are plenty of ways to re-wire the switch for your fog lights so that they don't cut off. The guys with big trucks and the stupid Hella off-road trail lamps that use them all the time as fog lights do it, so can you. Besides, very few cops in very few jurisdictions are going to care unless you're blinding people, in which case you have another problem anyways.
