Mine kind of pissed me off coming home from work today. So, I swore out loud at it. LOL
I went to clean the windshield, but only washer fluid came out of the driver's side. Really pissed me off. Maybe because it is cold out? But, I would assume the heat from the engine bay would have heated the hose so it could pass? Anyways,.... the other little issue I had a while back, when it was also cold out again, I tried to use my power mirror button and only the driver's side worked. It's all better now, it was a while ago and when it was cold out as well. Same side of the truck. (I repeat, the passenger side mirror does work well now. It was one day when this happened in the cold.)
I'm starting to really dislike the MDS system as well. I know it can be disabled at every start up, but I wouldn't mind the MDS system if it was loud and sounded like ****. lol
Maybe I'm just pissy today? lol I would hate to trade in the truck for a 2018 Audi RS3, which I already built on online a couple of times. (The only tough time I'm having is deciding which color. The Nardo grey or the Nargo blue?? lol)

We'll see. I love my truck, but these little "issues" really bother me. Thanks for letting me vent.

That sucks man. I hope it isn't much! Good luck.

***I didn't want to come off as whiny about my truck, because that's not me, but it just sucks. But it could of been just a glitch as it was with the power windows. I'm sure it's just a glitch. It's a nuisance when you pay for a brand new truck. I'm sure it'll be working fine tomorrow, watch. lol

Well, the grille swap is complete! Firebuff17 (Josh) and I swapped. I ran without the grille for about a week while he did the swap, then he shipped me his honeycomb. I put them on last night and reassembled. Seems I broke the 2 bottom clips that hold the bottom part of the grille in. Josh had the part number and supplier, so those are on order. I really like the look of the honeycomb over the slats. For my truck, and what I was after, the chrome accents just didn't look right. Huge props to the forum for having made all this possible, too. I think there are 4-5 pairs of truck owners that made the swap recently.

Finally installed the tails I tinted the other day. They look great, but are a shade darker than what I was shooting for. I may end up selling them locally and tinting another set lighter. Here's some before and after shots. Excuse the dirty truck and bad lighting. I used my hand to shade and try to get a decent pic.
