Thumbs up Awesome video!
Hello storm10, thanks for posting that. What a great video, although like you, I already knew about half of those hints beforehand, but not them all!

I have now watched some of his other videos and found them very interesting and informative as well.

How is your GLS going? In 2 weeks it will be 1 year since I took delivery of mine, and so far, with 13,000kms, it hasn't missed a beat. For the very first time, in 28 years of driving, I am taking a new car for it's first service and not reporting any faults.

Cheers from Melbourne!

I'm very happy with my GLS, I have right now 15k miles (you translate into km), and already had 1 service. Out of all the cars I've ever owned, in this one I feel the most relaxed while driving. And it handles surprisingly well for this size of SUV...

Definitely unlike me. My owners manual is on the book shelf in the brand new condition- never been opened.
