I discovered this a few months ago:
Normally when the ignition is OFF or in ACC, the power windows and sunroof controls don't work. When you go from ON to ACC/OFF, the power windows and sunroof will work for 45 seconds or until a door is opened.
It's in the manual under Power Window Switches.

If your mirrors don't close all the way when you press mirror close button, just click switch randomly from the middle position to the close position till the mirror closes all the way. My mirrors don't close all the way sometimes but always when I'm at tryin to show them my problem.

I found that black cover next to the right side of the license plate and tried pushing it up and squeezing it in, but nothing happens. Am I doing something wrong? I also see a key cylinder to the left of the license plate on the upper left side. Is that some kind of valet lock?
On 01-03 that black button looking thingy on the right side of the license plate is a dummy button, itz jus a cover, i actually remove mines and install a back up camera in itz place...
The key cylinder on the left is to open ur trunk with ur non valet key if u dnt feel like going in ur car to pull the trunk openoer button.....

Just discovered today that the damping force of the shock absorbers in the UL air suspension automatically adjusts between 9 levels, based on the Normal/Sport setting and several other vehicle inputs/sensors. The normal/sport settings do not indicate a fixed damping force on each setting.
The suspension control actuator controls the damping force of the shock absorber inside the pneumatic cylinder in 9 steps. Based on signals from the acceleration sensor, vehicle speed sensor and stop light switch, etc., the suspension ECU controls the suspension control actuator to adjust the damping force of the shock absorber.
Combined control of vehicle height and damping force suppresses changes in the vehicle’s attitude such as roll, nose dive and squat to provide outstanding riding comfort and controllability.

It's a setting through the nav unit (if so equipped) - something like "Info", or "Menu" IIRC. You can also change the distancewhen it'll start alarming, and whether or not the graphic display comes up on the nav screen.
