You know you own a S5 when not one person or shop in almost 2 years cannot figure out what is wrong with your car.

 

lol, that one happened to me too. At least the combo switches are the same.

 

nah i've seen that with other cars.... my favorite Rx7 one was actually an 84-85, 5 engines died from overheating and they replaced engines, hoses water pumps radiators etc etc etc.

the fix? a thermostat.

that's whats wrong with yours too, its something really dumb and obvious, you have a belt on the alternator right?

 

but not the headlight switch! so therefore you know you have an S5 when you fix the circuit board in the headlight switch cause you plugged an S4 one in and blew it up....

 

Love it!!! so true...

 

you know you have an S5 when you talk sh*t about the S4..

S4 pride!

 

You have an S5 because you know the dissappointment of limp mode.

 

When you buy a a complete energy suspension bushing kit and ball joints from a forum member and then attempt to return them when you realize your end links are plastic and your ball ball joints are permanently attached to your control arms....

you know you have a s5 when the headlight switch bursts into flames, and your wiper switch only works on one speed....high wahaha

 

You know you have a s5 when you wish you had the clutch type lsd ; )

 

You know you have an s5 when you got tired of the S4,sold it, and thought "hey,it's one year UP so it must be Better"!..so ya buy it.
