Hi, My new 2011 Versa SL Hatchback continues to mystify me. I need help.
1) Just to the right of my hood and fuel door levers, is an unidentified 'thing.' It's about 1-inch in width, about 1/2 inch in height. The plastic front has a series of 13 little square indentations. There's an electric wire at the back end. On the bottom side, there appears to be a 'pressable' button. Not knowing its function, I chose not to press it. It's to the left of the OBDII connector. This little gadget doesn't appear in the Owner's Manual. On page 0.7, it's located to the right of item # 24. My neighbor has a 2011 Versa sedan without the host of options found on the LS Hatch. Her can doesn't have this 'device.' Can someone tell me what it is and what it does? I'm guessing - a sensor of some sort?
2) Daytime Running Lights [DRL], The Owner's Manual describes this feature as being on 'Canadian vehicles.' My neighbors 2011 Versa HAS DRL! The schematics in the Nissan FSM (CD) shows DRL relays and such only on Canadian cars. My SL Hatch? I don't think it has DRL {I'm not in a position to run out and start the engine to find out for sure}. I don't recall having seen my headlights on during what little driving I've done. I'm pretty sure I would have noticed. So, do USA 2011 Versas had DRL - or just some?
