    I'm an idiot. (Read for a good laugh)

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    So I had my S4 for an year now... racked up 9k miles on it, did some little mods here and there.

    Remember this thread? http://www.audizine.com/forum/showthread.php?t=229947

    Well, I JUST found out that you can push up the sunroof button so it tilts up and down.... My sunroof wasn't fully closed!!! I didn't have any idea that you can push the button up to tilt the damn sunroof...

    Yea, so that was why my C pillars were soaked after a car wash or if it poured outside... Hopefully my drain plugs aren't clogged either.

    So you guys know anything else that I SHOULD know about my car? LOL. What a dickhead I am, right?

    No, just the back part of the sunroof was slightly down about 1/4 of an inch.

    You guys probably think that shit was half open, I'm not THAT much of an idiot. LOL.

    I ran out of gas one time and thought the fuel pump was dead. So I replaced it and the car still didnt start. Then I realized there was no gas in the tank. Thats stupid!

    So wait a minute, you're saying in that 9k miles you never used the Sunroof? Because if you would have opened it and closed it once completely, it would have closed completely. Plus if you would have used your key to close all the windows the same thing would have happened. Crazy if you didnt.

    I've had my car almost a year now, and I did not know this feature existed. But I have no owners manual either.

    I did use the sunroof all the time, BUT the sunroof didn't properly close on the back. The back wouldn't go up all the way, hence it was 1/4 of an inch lower than the front.

    That's weird, that's not how our sunroofs work. When going from the open position to the closed position it should properly seal. And the rear should only tilt upwards when you press the knob.

    On your windshield wiper toggle switch, on the bottom towards the end, there is this button...push it and it turns off your info cluster, push it again and it turns back on.



    I just found out that if you put the key into the door, turn left/right and hold it, it either rolls up the windows or rolls down....I wish my key did that if I held down unlock or lock.
