if you don't have a code reader handy stop at a place that will let you "borrow" one to find out what codes you are throwing and post em. I have a odb2 reader on me now if you are near BelAir with the car by chance

meh. be a little leery of leaving the car if its the ecu flash they will keep it until its done aka keep car while waiting days/weeks for corporate tech to come flash it. Ask your dealer if they have had to flash or replace ecu at that service department yet first. If no, call around to find a dealer that has so they don't go hard part replacement first.
Mine was kept in shop a total of 22 business days. Just don't want anyone else to have to hear the dreaded "this is the first we have seen" and suffer through.

Did you you experience a rough idle dip while throwing cel/slp/trac lights while in neutral?

[OrbitalEllipses]

I get that idle dip, but no other engine issues or CELs thus far. Orb car got heart and steely resolve. >:]

[kanundrum]

I have tons o crickets and trans grinds like every time but it still runs lol

[SpectreRT]

I've started to get a strange grind when I shift into 2nd and 3rd. Its not really from the transmission directly... its more of really strange feedback putting it into gear.

I've only got 2,500 miles thus far... maybe its still breaking in?

Does it vibrate when you put it into gear, like it doesn't want to go in there?

News update! I'll be getting my check on monday and the dealership that I'm familiar with are getting the 10 Series from Frederick . Now I just have to wait until the 7th >.<. Stupid religious holidays . I'll be getting it for MSRP 28,180, but I want to see if I can knock it down. I'm not eligible for student discount since I graduate in a year. Any other options?

[IloveBaldEagles]

Did you graduate out of anything in the past 6 months?

[No Brakes]

No . It's 6 month to graduation or 2 years following graduation.

No, no strange vibrations. Just an awkward feeling going into 2nd and 3rd sometimes.

[IloveBaldEagles]

I find that out cars suck at 2nd gear

[leon78]

Just watched RUSH....must see for any gear head.
