FWIW, I've never been in a car that didn't have the triangle indicating which side the fuel is filled from. I think that's been pretty standard on all cars for quite some time now. But nice to know for folks that didn't realize it was there.

Another little "detail" I haven't seen mentioned... On the speedometer, assuming you're above the speed limit, the space between the needle and the speed limit will fill in red. So assuming you're going 50mph in a 40 zone, that gap between will fill up red as a visual reminder.

Probably common knowledge, but ...
If you are in "sequential Mode" and Pull-Hold the Up "+ Paddle" the car will return back to "Auto Drive mode"

So if you have the start/stop feature switched on and autohold switched on...when you come to a stop in traffic behind a stationary car, the engine switches off and you can take your feet off both pedals.
When the car in front of you drives off and it reaches a car length or two away, the start/stop switches the engine back on without you touching any pedals! Or at least it does for Euro cars. |

one interesting fact that I found out on my south east asia spec car is that my rear seats do not fold down, as it does not have a latch behind! not sure if any other regions have this spec

It's a safety feature giving you the max possible rpm depending on the oil temperature.

If you are at a standstill and hold the "- Paddle" while in manual mode the car will return to auto mode. (This will only work at a standstill, example red light). The other one will work at any time.

When I try to unlock the car with the key fob or lock when it’s my first attempt of the day it doesn’t let me. I literally have to go to the door handle and unlock it that way. Then they key fob will work. Is it a low battery on the fob or jr sha new?

Circulate it upward and then release it back down by the rear portion of your exhaust cats. It's done to help car keep rear ended seated down during high speeds. It used to drive me crazy at first then I put the car on a lift and noticed that and asked around that's the answer I got. |

Yes. This tranny works the same as a Hellcat transmission , I know I know I shouldn't bring mopar stuff around here but they're known for this feature as when they go race they shift down get to the right roll and gear and then hold pedal and hit gas and tranny does the rest of the work.
