    Sync 3.4 Update (Build 21020) Now Available on the Owner Site

    Going against my better judgement I downloaded 21194 today. By the way, it downloads without the vehicle running, or even being turned on, as long as it can get a WiFi signal. Download and install took about 2 hours, but when I tried it I now have all the Sirius features that have been missing...

    New Carbonized Grey ST

    Anderson S C here. Welcome. We were getting out of the ST at a restaurant last year and a middle aged gentleman looked at me and said: "It's nice that the department lets you use it off duty". He didn't seem to be sarcastic, just conversational.

    Oil consumption? Problem?

    Mine had about 14000 miles now, and almost 5000 since the last oil change. It finally used about a half quart when I checked it yesterday. But, we're in the hot weather season and I do have a problem with my right foot on the skinny pedal, so I'm not complaining.

    Public Service Announcement: Never clean your gun while driving fast. You might drop one of those small parts and have to slow down in order to find it.

    Back-up Camera Issues

    My camera fails like that occasionally. I've figured out it's actually a warning that there's something behind me I could back into.

    Getting irritated with some of the driver assist functions

    I've had the ST brake itself while backing into my garage so any times that I'm surprised when it doesn't. And then the other day, while backing out of a car wash lane after they had to close suddenly, it saved m from backing into a concrete post. So I guess I can put up with the inconvenience.

    Hi from NE Florida (Jax)

    The ST Experience at Biltmore includes a self guided tout of the estate. She can do that while you have fun, or she can go with you and you take another day and see the estate. My wife isn't a car person either, but she ended up loving te things we did with the ST.

    EXPLORER ST DRIVING SCHOOL REGISTRATION IS OPEN!

    I think if you were booked and had to cancel because of the pandemic they will reschedule you. If you just waited a year you may be out of luck.

    Post your favorite pic...it’s a show off thread.

    Finally, someone who understands what color an ST should be. Rich Copper is the best color they offer.

    35/30/35 versus 2nd row captain seats

    We have the 2nd row Captains Chairs. Would have bought one with the bench for the grand kids if there had been one available. Turns out, even when we're not full the grand kids prefer to ride in the third row.

    Parking Assist Paranoia

    When we did Asheville last fall they let you try the self parking feature using their cars.

    Parking Assist Paranoia

    I've never trusted the system. It seems to back into the space a little too fast. At the ST Esperince they showed us how to use it and let us play with one of their cars. It works, but I still feel it backs up too fast.

    Is this possible?

    Somewhere in the settings is an "on/off" setting for the speed warning. I don't remember exactly where, but it is there.

    Finally, an easy to see explanation of how to do this. Thank you.

    Rare color

    Other than one at the ST Experience ours is the only one I've seen. And yes, they discontinued it for 2021, making it even more unusual.

    Rare color

    Rich Copper is probably the rarest color. I think it's also the prettiest and It's obviously faster than the other colors.

    EXPLORER ST DRIVING SCHOOL REGISTRATION IS OPEN!

    It starts with a drivers meeting. Then they assign you a car and it's a drive through the mountains with a stop mid morning. Noontime you stop at a Country Club, the name escapes me, for lunch. Then it's on to a private, paved lot where they set up various courses and show you how to run them...
