Well, my Rowenta iron kicked the bucket yesterday. I sew a lot, but not professionally, and this is the longest I’ve ever had an iron, but I’m sick of shelling out money every 4-5 years to get a new one.

I can’t go gravity-fed because I don’t have a permanent place for it and also have very limited storage.

Does anyone have an awesome iron suggestion? I use a lot of different fabrics and need steam. I mostly sew garments and do a little quilting. One thing I really like about my iron is that it’s got LOTS of steam holes and the tip is very pointy for getting into small spaces.

I know a lot of people love the cheap Black & Decker iron but I had one and I hated it. It felt like going from driving a BMW to a go-kart.

Located in Canada, so that could limit my options a bit. I really don’t care where I buy it, I just want something that will last.

2015 base model, 1.6l gdi engine with 115,772km on it.

Third time this code has come up since I bought it in March. I ran cataclean through it and the code came back. Test has been 91.7% every time it comes up (it will come up if it’s under 95%).

Last oil change was in February when it was traded in, and I’ve driven 1500km since then. I don’t think I’m burning oil based on the dipstick.

We haven’t taken it to a mechanic yet. The previous owner changed the fuel injectors in December. They also replaced the oxygen sensors and spark plugs in November.

Not sure what to try next. I have plenty of power, no trouble starting or getting up to speed, even on hills. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

I have a 2015 base, with manual a/c and am looking to replace the head unit so I can have navigation and a backup camera (instead of using my phone for navigation). Looking for feedback on a good, reliable and hopefully affordable head unit to replace the stock system. Needs to have AirPlay and android auto since the other person who sometimes drives my car doesn’t have an iPhone.

I am in Canada so I may not have access to some sellers. I’m comfortable installing myself.

I’ve been looking at this one on Amazon but it doesn’t have a lot of reviews. I’d like to keep the steering wheel controls, and this one says they work.
