Hi SideSwipe, your lightning set-up is very clean. Just wondering how much does it heat-up when used for extended period of time ~ more than 1 hour continuously?

Bit worried about the 170 watts consumption and inadequate heat dissipation.

I got my Scorpio N D AT 4Xplor's 20K service done last week. I find the service centre near me quite open to addressing my needs, and I would plan to leave the car for a full day at the SC.

Few things to check for:
1. Brake pads, I got my rear brake pads replaced (at around Rs 6k for the pair and labour added), although as per SA i would have still got 1-1.5k kms more on them, but he recommended to get it replaced. They sent me a pic on WhatsApp but I wasn't able to compare them with new brake pads( as i left the car and went back home).
In hindsight, I could have let the brake pads on as I didnt have any complains about braking and would've made another visit to SC in future, but then convenience sells!
2. There was a squeaking noise coming from the brake pedal lever, culprit was probably the brake light sensor. Got the pedal lubricated and test drove to asses the work.
3. Got the speaker software flashed, as they would just die on me abruptly (happened twice) and sometimes even crackle out of nowhere.
4. S/W got updated, but has made no difference to the often Wi-Fi switching on/off and disconnecting Carplay issues that have been plaguing the car since I took its delivery. If anyone has got this fixed please do guide me here.
5. All oil and filter changes as standard.
6. The SA initially add value added services, which I got removed later as I didn't need them.
7. You may want to get your wheels rotated based on the inspection but it takes a lot of time and the SC folks generally aren't much inclined to do it.
8. Take enough time to inspect and road test the car before you pay the bill and get back home with your prized possession.
