Ugh. Still has indirect TPMS

cheapest way to go on about it, now that it's mandatory to have TPMS. Just like how some cars have super shitty rear view camera.

Soon-to-be new 11Gen Civic owner. Need a little help here - step 9 of the PDI "install body plugs" - ? I don't live in snow country, what are these plugs for?

 

[zroger73]

Body plugs are oval rubber plugs used in the holes in the frame that are used to secure the vehicle while in transport. They help keep out debris and noise. Most automobiles have them. Dealers regularly fail to install them out of laziness or ignorance.

I don't understand the point on posting the PDI info for the 22s not like you're going to drive it off the truck and go home. All vehicles has to go through the pdi process, standard dealer procedure

Maybe it's an American thing where you can skip the PDI process and diy??? Might be wrong

A few reasons I can think of right off hand:

1. To confirm that a new model release is imminent before an official announcement is made.

2. To provide early information about changes.

3. To provide how-to information. Dealers frequently skip steps such as installing the rubber body plugs and sometimes forget to install fuses or remove vehicles from maintenance mode. It's nice to have information about how to perform these steps yourself instead of having to take the time to return to the dealer and risk damage. PDI information isn't included in the Owner's Manual or available on the NHTSA website, so some enthusiasts provide the TSB as a courtesy and tool to help others.
