It worries me a little that these service people don't know the correct fix, and he admitted that they do not have direct access to the engineers when problems come up and its harder when its a brand new product. I am feeling pretty lucky now, cuz there was an ECU in Portland and is being shipped overnight and if all goes well I could have my car back tomorrow!!! I am trying not to be excited, but I can't help it!
UPDATE: Got my car back last night. They replaced the ECM (same as ECU I am told) and drove it about 50 miles then let me take it home. So far so good, very peppy and feels like it did when I drove it off the lot! The paint is covered with water spots from their quick run through the car wash and not drying it, but that will be fixed when I get home from work today. They did fill the gas tank though. Boy did I miss that car. The only sad thing is, I am worrying about every little thing...here's to hoping it stays the way it is. :happy0180:
