It's been warranteed so far, but I'm a few hundo deep for tows/deductible's. They picked up the tow this morning, so that was cool. I just want my car to run good. I dont think bein a dick to the service writer will help anything, so I'm keepin my cool for now...if it leaves me walkin on the hwy, my conversation may take a different tone.

well at least tehy havent charged you for each visit. thats what i meant. id be happy to with the work being warranted. i was saying id be throwing a fit if they tried to charge me each time for something they cant fix lol


on a diff note, gl with the work. maybe if they cant figure it out they will be nice and give you a new motor...even out of warranty! but dont get your hopes up on that

Well they called back and couldnt get it to re-produce the problem and pretty much said come get it. No codes or any trace of an issue popped up, so wtf?

I'm guessing after a decent drive like 30 mins, excess fuel accumulated again and it caused the shake/miss fire feeling of the engine. Then it sat and the fuel evaporated and now it appears fine, but will most likely *** me when I get it back. Cant wait...
