Changes for '06 model year
I don't know if these changes fall under the guise of the 2006 model year or if they're just incremental changes made throughout the year, but I've noticed several differences between my '05 and '06 MCSes.
The design of the downtubes has changes; they no longer have the styrofoam blocks on the bottom, and they're now flared at the bottom, so they still won't lift out through the top of the lower trim piece.
The passenger airbag light no longer says "OFF", but is instead an icon.
My DSC seems *much* less intrusive, now. I kind of wonder if my '05 wasn't programmed to recognize that it had an LSD installed. The '06 hasn't yet given me the pucker-inducing panic when the DSC kicks in, such as when trying to pull out into traffic.
What have you noticed?
