First what is VSA? And do you guys drive with it on or off.
What effects does this have while driving.


Second what is the best way to wash engine bay.With or without degreaser.


And when on city streets are u guys in D5 or D4.
When i am in D5 the car just seems to shift to much.

And last how many miles are you getting to a tank of gas.

Thanks guys.

Do a search on the VSA and washing the engine bay, plenty on it.

I am sure you can search, but usually people don't want to go through the troubles. So here is some insight. VSA = Vehicle Stability Assist. Just leave it on when you are driving.

I drive using D4 when it is under 60mph. Highway = D5
Miles per gallon - depending how much and hard you drive. city/highway = 24 - 26mpg

As cleaning the engine, I have no idea, too lazy to do it... haha!

VSA = vehicle stability assist (TCS = traction control system) you
could leave them on especially if your in rainy or snowy\icy situations. To wash a engine you can use degreaser sparingly if your engine is very greasy\dirty...otherwise I wash my engine only when it's hot and running, while the engine is hot there is almost no need for degreaser. I use D5 or D4...and about 20-22 mpg (the wife has a LEAD foot)
