There is an Auto High Beam setting where they will come on if it does not sense headlights in front of it and then turn off once it senses headlights. I did not like it. I turned it off.
Where is the on/off setting for the sensing headlights?

I have no idea how people are saying the 2019 rides stiff.. my air pressure is at 40-42 and it rides very smooth. I didn’t have a 17/18 to compare it too but I was looking for it to be rough and it never disappoints and is very comfortable

Why so high? Even the door says 38. With radials there is no advantage to go higher, and your rubber on the road will be less.

Mine went in for a check engine light yesterday. 980 miles... no mods except PC.

Other wired electrical gremlins too. Like windshield wipers had zero chill. No matter what setting they would go full blast.

High beams would come on at random as well... not sure what all this fuckery is about but shes due back today with a prognosis so I'll post what they find.

Second person with a CEL on this forum. That's either rare odds or a troubling start. Hope it is just minor wiring harness stuff like with the 17s.

Yeah, my tires wore out quick on the insides (overinflated wear) even at 38psi from about 100 miles on (was lazy to start off). Had to drop to <35 in the rear to get a decent wear pattern. It will ride better too, and won't impact your mpg more than 0.2.

It's a setting on the dash controlled by the steering wheel I believe.

On the 19' it is toggled on and off with the headlight stalk by flicking the highbeams and watching the auto headlight icon turn on or off

The initial setting must be made in the menu

Initial fill was 45 psi and I dropped it and guessed but I didn’t drop it far enough. The cold and warm gives me much different readings through the week. Been too lazy to get it exactly 38 in this cold weather [emoji23]

How does that sound contradictory? You know the 18/19 pump engine sound into the cab via the speakers correct?

How is engine noise related to wind noise / NVH inside the cab?
I'm an engineer at heart so I work in absolutes. It is either louder our quieter in the cab.
It has since been clarified that what was intended to be said is the fake engine sound is louder, but outside ambient sound is quieter.
One thing this tells me is the value of an aftermarket exhaust on a 19 is diminished since the fake sound is louder and would lessen the joy of hearing the aftermarket audio.

Just forscan off the fake engine noise and then you can more clearly hear the real engine sound. Then you can enjoy any enhancements.

Okay, just got a call from the dealer and the check engine light was "a small intake hose came loose and disconnected". Apparently a quick reattachment and presto, no more CEL.
