Ford Ranger / B-Series :: 2010 - Temporarily Disable Open Door Chime?

I have a 2010 Santa Fe AWD which I suspect the AWD is failing. This is my 3rd viscous coupler (2 previous replacements under warranty). I am now out of warranty and am not willing to replace it again because I am sure it will fail.
I remember a tech had disabled my AWD in the past while waiting for a part to arrive. How to disable the AWD? I do remember it was from underneath the vehicle.
The reason I want to disable it is because it is intermittently delivering power to the rear wheels and it bucks and kicks when accelerating.

I noticed from time to time when i accelerate ventilation fans tend to drop speed. Not sure if the a/c shuts off for a brief moment as you can feel warmer air exit the vents. Nothing of concern to me as the a/c works fine, just wondering if it does this for a reason. Knowing the ac is a huge power consumption to the vehicle, I am wondering if it does this for the engine to put more power where needed.
On another note. I did a test on the HWY this past Saturday omw to a wedding coverage. 2hr drive there i used the a/c with seat vents on and got about 22/23mpg. On the way back i did the opposite and got 29.2mph, not too shabby... 2016 - 2.0T .....
Lexus LS 2007+ :: Steering Wheel Temporarily Off Center After Sudden U-turn
While driving to work I did a quick U-turn to avoid a congested left turn lane and when I completed the turn and straightened out, the steering wheel was about 30 degrees off center when driving straight ahead. A few seconds later it slowly centered itself, I'm assuming this was a Variable Gear Ratio Steering (VGRS) fault.

Since my warranty has expired, I have had a problem with my alarm regularly firing after ~10 mins of the car being locked, regardless of whether I engage the alarm or just simply lock the car. I have brought the car to a dealer to troubleshoot multiple times and they can't figure out the issue. Is there a way to disable the alarm so I can still lock the car? Currently, my only workaround is to leave the car unlocked all the time.

I have a 2003 Santa Fe, 2.4L. I think some snow got onto the power window switch panel, then melted and fried something. While driving, the driver side window will go down by itself. What's more, when I turn my headlights on, the window goes down as if the headlight switch is the switch for the window.
How I could fix this? Is there a way to disable the power window altogether? I'd rather do that in the meantime if it's going to require some expensive diagnosis and fix from the mechanic.
Lexus ES 2007-12 :: How To Disable NAV
Can you disable the Navigation system on Lexus models or ES if you prefer? Nav seems like a waste as most ppl seem to have a better system on their devices these days. I'd like to disable it bc I don't want that on any car I own. I don't use smart phones.
Seems like a lot of packages have to come w/ nav. Can I shut 'er down?
Lexus LS 2007+ :: Can't Disable, PCS Not Available Now Message
New owner of previously owned 2008 LS600hL and it has the recurring "PCS not available now" dinging message and i want to disable it for now. Upon researching it i found that it should be under the steering wheel presumably next to the TPMS reset button but I am not seeing it. The location I was expecting it to be (to the left of the TPMS reset) actually has two wires going into what looks like a blank plastic cover plate but no button.

Lexus LS 2007+ :: Disable Warning Chime When Open The Door To Get Out?
Everytime I open the door to get out of my 08 LS460 the warning bell rings incessantly.
The only thing I can think of is that I'm usually in a parking garage and the lights are on due to the auto-feature on the lights. But, I think sometimes it rings even though the lights aren't on.
Sometimes you open the door but don't jump right out of the car. Is there anyway to disable this ringing bell?
Lexus ES 2007-12 :: Disable Automatic Door Locking / Unlocking
I'm slowly reading through the ES-350 manual, picking and choosing parts to read. There are several 'Personalized Preferences' that I've noted down and will have addressed at my 1st month service.
I noticed on pg. 21 of the manual that there are settings to set and cancel the door-locking/unlocking functions. These functions are also mentioned in the 'Personalized Preferences' section, so there is overlap here (on paper anyways).
Anyways I tried a couple of times to follow the instructions on pg. 21 to disable the door locking and unlocking when the car is placed in Park and Neutral.
It didn't work for me. The instructions aren't all that clear to me, nor of what they are supposed to accomplish. I'd like to not have the doors lock when I place the shift out of Park and not have the doors unlock when I place the shift into Park.
