I saw your post and was waiting for my car to come home with my wife so I could check it in person.
I was going to say it's in the navigation menu, but if it's not there, then it's a customizable feature using the Techstream.

When I have the car I'll confirm which one it is...but I think you will need a Techstream...or something like a Carista app and dongle.

I'm quite certain it was in the menus on my nav-equipped car... I was holding off on answering because I couldn't recall exactly where it was.

You can find it in vehicle light settings. I think 60 seconds is the longest.

If you open the cabin filter compartment (and remove the cabin filter) and press air recirculation/fresh air, should we see any mechanism move?

Does AC need to be in re-circulation before replacing cabin filter in our 3IS?

The 2IS had this requirement, so it's probably a good idea to do so on the 3IS. The 3IS filter location is very similar to the 2IS. Though, I am not sure about the recirc being required. I've never heard of such a thing on other cars.

No...they changed it from the 2IS cause, let's be honest, it was a fairly unreasonable requirement to change the filter.

People’s opinion on rear window roof spoilers? I have seen a lot of members have it but I am torn. Does it look childish? Tacky? Trying too hard to make the car look fast when in reality it’s not? Just had my roof wrapped on my ultra white 3IS and was thinking a gloss back and or CF roof spoiler might look good?

It depends. I also have an ultrawhite with a gloss black roof wrap. I think the really small ones are okay but anything big would ruin it. I personally have been on the fence for a while with it but havent gotten it since i i feel like id id rather spend the money on other small mods (maybe eyelids for headlights)?

If i had to choose between a lip spoiler or a roof spoiler id id with the lip. I currently have a gloss black lip which is why i don't want to pull the trigger on the roof since it may be too noisy lol

But it's your car and your style so do what makes you enjoy driving the car!

I bought mine almost a year ago and just got it put on recently, due to the same concerns. I really like it -- it's not too gaudy and accentuates the car pretty well without looking like another tacked-on piece. Of course it depends how many other things you already have.

I hope the thread is still active. My question is is it okay to disconnect the negative terminal of the battery? Do I need to use OBD memory saver? If you’ve tried, did your idle messed up or caused any damage?
