Few Questions
Average MPG you are getting?
Does your Auto heat/AC button always kick on the AC?
What does the km/h mp/h button do on your dash?
Traction Contorl how does it work in snow?
Does your heated seats turn off after said amount of time?
Easy way to get to the sunroof motor?
That is all I can think of for now thanks.

Yup

Changes the trip computer calculations from mph to kph
Traction Contorl how does it work in snow?
Good in snow, horrilbe on ice. Is that what you mean? Or are you asking how the system operates technically?

I guess technically, Do you hear any noise comming from the front of the car when the tires break loose, I am wanting to think somewhere i read it works like the ABS system works?

The system measures the difference in wheel speeds to detect rear wheel spin and then reduces throttle and self-applies the rear brakes. You'll feel the throttle pedal push back against your foot and hear a humming noise.
I like the system, some don't.
On zero-traction surfaces....like soild ice...the system virtually shuts down the throttle entirely and you don't go anywhere.

Normal. The idea is to run the a/c compressor at all times....even when heat is called for....to dehumidify the air. If you want to defeat this feature just manually turn off the compressor by pushing the "A/C" button.
