this morning comming down from chaffey collage, i niticed that the e brake light was on even tough the e brake was down. i was trying to slow down to make a left on lemon when i realized that i wasnt slowing down at all. i ended up just driving streight down haven and the brakes came back one exit later.

guess i gotta rebleed them.

Seems unusual since we used the brakes very hard on Tuesday. You getting any drips under your car after having it parked over night? I will be checking my bleeder screws again just to make sure they are tight.

the secret menu on the Nav allows for some weird stuff. I haven't messed with it because I think my firmware is different then yours.

tried the secret Nav thing on my way to lunch this afternoon...and I did the up, up, down, down one....it takes you to a screen with a silly little white car, called "wiring check" or something like that. It basically has an indicator for headlights, GPS, Parking brake and reverse lights. Below the car diagram are three/four readouts. One, is a speedometer, another for Voltage, another one measuring speed volts? ...one more, but forgot what it was measuring.

I'll try some of the others on my way home today.
