i didnt know that! ill check that out tomorrow

 

If your wipers are on and you put the car in reverse, the rear wiper will activate automatically so you can see where you're going

 

I was unaware of that as well! My turn... If you accidentally place the passenger windshield wiper above the driver's on the windshield, when you turn on your car they will sweep and go back down in the correct position.

 

I was wondering about that!!

 

When you press 1 time to open the sunroof it will not open totally you still have to pres a bit for it to open at max.

 

Just to add to that, according to the manual the first position it stops will cause less buffering then fully open.

As for my own fact, if you car is locked and you open the hatch up, once you shut it you do not need to relock your doors. It does it automatically (shown by flashing the lights.) Usually I lock my doors then open the trunk if I need to take something out of it. Saves me having to relock the car with my hands full.

 

Didn't work for me :-( ST3 feature maybe? Or am I just doing it wrong?

 

Mine doesnt do it either. What year is yours? Mine is an early 2013 model so maybe they started doing it with the 14's?

 

When you put the fogs on it shows a difference in the lights on the little LCD.

I thought the crawl feature was very cool too, that was news to me

What is this crawl feature you speak of?

 

Good idea for a thread. I owned a car for 6 years without knowing a few awesome features.

I suspect I'll replace my iPhone before I learn half of its features.

 

There is a tire pressure gauge clip in the door of the glove box (might be more obvious to some, but I was pleasantly surprised)

 

Is that what that's for? I've been putting a pen in there. Never know when you're going to need one.

 

If you remove the rear headrests, pull the seat bottom up, and then fold the seat backs down, the rear seats fold flat.

 

Is that on st1 and st2? I havecst3 and mine doesn't fold flat.

There is a fuel funnel in the hatch for filling with a gas can. Pictured on the inside of the fuel door.
With the sunroof closed pressing the close button with angle the sunroof up.

Actually the funnel is for the fuel door if you have to use a can, run out of gas

 

Great tip on the visor!!

 

crawl feature is when your in first or second let go of clutch real slow no gas the car will crawl.and ecu kicks in to stop the engine from stalling

 

This is not a feature. Nearly every manual does this.

 

Hitting the power button on the radio when the car is off will turn the radio on without having to put the car in accessory mode or start the engine. Instrument gauges will not turn on and tell you to start the engine.

Do you know if there is a time limit to this? Like, would that be what you would do at a drive in theatre?

 

crawl feature LOLOLOLOL

 

 

VTOL when you lift up on the reverse lockout ring in 6th gear, really took me by surprise!

 

What's VTOL.... ?

 

Vertical takeoff and landing. Harrier style (think true lies)

 

just tried that, must be an st3 feature

 

The bottom of the back seat will hinge forward for cleaning/ SMALL amount of storage. Just put your hand between the top and bottom, close to each side of the car, and give a tug.

 

That's what enables putting the seat backs all the way down to make a flat storage area in the back (you've got to remove the headrests).

 

The car has cloaking technology
After spirited braking for a certain amount if time the car bathes itself in a cloud o brake dust. Enabling you to downplay the looks of the car and park In ****ty neighborhoods


This is a good thread and hopefully some hidden features get unearthed
I didn't know my xterra had two gloveboxes for about a year

Lmfao that's the damn truth. Good one. My favorite so far.

 

You can fit a 55 in tv in the hatch with little to no problem with the seats folded down

 

I second that, along with the TV you can fit an Xbox and accessories as well!

 

guys guys guys...
There's a huge difference between "cool little undocumented features"
and
" I didn't bother to read the manual"

 

that's what they are talking about. I was just stating

 

Laying the seats down, I fit well over 100 boxes of donuts and had room for probably 200 more for a fundraiser I did. So if ever you wanted to rob a Krispy Kreme...

You're such a thug! So 300 boxes of donuts......you're lucky you didn't get pulled over by the cops just for the 100 boxes.

Easy everyone, I'm a retired former military cop. I used to get these jokes all the time.

 

This has been mentioned before in earlier threads.

Holding the reset button too long in an attempt to reset the mileage computer after fill-up results in another screen with a plethora of data screens.

(The reset button is the left side OK button dial pad on the steering wheel and this occurs right after restarting the car)

Once you see that everything is reset let go, or you'll be in the diagnostics mode. Do not attempt this when at night and you're driving the whole dash will go out......YIKES!

this happened to me last week! Lol

 

Sub'd. Cool idea for a thread!

 

I just found out that besides the two front doors and hatch having touch sensors to unlock the car, you can also unlock the car by touching the rear door handles as well.

You know that your door unlocks if you just open the car without touching the sensors right? That's why the manual tells you not to touch any part of the door handle (except for the black sensor), when locking your doors.
