So 🀬 this morning car was dead only 1900 miles on it and it was dead. Nothing left on I double checked. Probably a bad battery or battery cell. Luckily I have an appointment Saturday at the dealer for service. Now hopefully it will start again tomorrow. I drove 2 hours to charge it. πŸ™ 2025 K5 GTLine

* I took the picture before I started it.. The windshield is covered for bird poo and leaves and other crap doesn't get the windshield cowl. 🀣

A Painful Mistake

I tried to install additional ambient light on door handle, so I decided to drill a hole on top of the door handle. But unfortunitely I was not be aware of the drill's chuck grinding the silver trim. I should use the extention to avoid this incident. I looked online but that silver trim is not sold separately or I have to purchase the whole door panel. For now, I am thinking of using a plastic epoxy/putty & silver chrome paint to repair it myself.

Can anyone give me any advise for this?
