  • ✓A healthy battery and routine conditioner use matter because low voltage can trigger a wide range of false or intermittent faults
  • ✓Check every seat, window, door, soft-close, and infotainment function repeatedly because comfort-module issues are expensive to chase
  • ✓Inspect the ride height after the car has stood and listen for excessive compressor activity on startup
