Two questions.

A/   I know where the second OBD port is, behind the panel close to your left knee.  Where is the other one?

B/  Is there a way to reprogram the power ports so that they are off when the key is off?  I would like to be able to leave accessories plugged in, with out worrying about the battery.

HI:

Coming in late here.  What are the criteria for this cheque?

I just purchased a 2013 'new' off the lot,so I am wondering if this applies to me, or just those who purchased earlier.

Anybody know? I feel the answers I get here will be more reliable than a kid in a call centre reading a script.

Hi

I am back, literally, from St. John, NB.  A quick visit to the in-law,.. No wifi, imagine!

  I didn't see any parked at Frenchy's. Sorry.

We at 2800km now, and the average is down to 5.4l/100km.  Hasn't been reset since we purchased, so I expect ant improvements are hidden by our earlier trangressions.

Watching for it to get slowly better.  My wife loves getting to work on .1 l of fuel (only 4 KM to work, you have to love small towns.)

I am quite interested in the $725 cheque that Adrian L mentioned, "huh, waz dat" about??

No problems with the jacks so far (ownership about one month) I do find the console to be a black hole though, too deep to match the opening.  I have to pile stuff on the seat to get to things in the bottom.

I am a new owner of a 2013 C-Max in Prince Edward Island.  Purchased off the lot this July at a good price (I think).  So far mileage is great (5.6l/100km), though not as good as advertised. This is running around Charlottetown, and a trip to Halifax. We figure a substantial portion of the monthly payments will be covered by sidelining the '07 Caravan which cost just under $200/month for fuel. This is my first hybrid. I got in at the dealer expecting a stripped down vehicle and was pleasantly surprised to be way off! I have yet to see any other C-Max (or C-Maxes!) on the streets here, any body out there?
