Crap like that makes me glad the guy in charge of service at the dealership I go to drives an FR-S.

Melted a hole in my driver side fender liner with a droplight, whooda thunk it? Man, that's some cheap, thin plastic. $44 for a new one.

Welcome to posting .....

I think the red cup holder looks a bit "Toys-R-Us", but your other mods look nice ....

I had just installed new winter tires, so I hid the locking lug nut key so they couldn't rotate them.

I put a BIG "DO NOT WASH" sign taped to the dash, so they wouldn't mess up my wax job.

I marked the oil filter so I could make sure it was changed.

After they were done, I checked to make sure the oil filter was tight and had been changed. Also, I checked under the car for any drips coming from the oil pan drain plug. I checked the oil to make sure it was new and was up to the full mark.

Hey ...... all was GOOD! ......

(yes, I've had my share of bad experiences at dealerships in the past)

Lol... Good for you! You made it out without incident!
I chickened out and changed the oil myself. Had no issues driving
It up on ramps, so was a very easy 20 min job.

PLS Help Someone

Ok so the retard at the gas station tightened my wheel bolt way to tight and snaped one right off. Im a lil mechanically inclined so I went to the dealer and got the part myself its just 1 stud for like 3 bucks. I took apart the hub replaced the 1 snapped stud or screw. put everything back together, was all good works fine. Then I get the abs and engine check light. I have a obd2 reader and the code is p0500 thats for the speed sensor or abs sensor. Now my car is in Limp Mode not working for shit, every time i clear the code it comes right back. So i checked the abs sensor on the hub i worked on and all is in place. WTF happened all i did was replace a wheel stud. Is there a special way to put the hub back with the sensor or sumthing or could I have damaged the sensor? Iv seen other threads with the same code p0500 but non of them seem to have the same problem as me. Im sure the abs sensor is fine its brand new car.
does anyone know what i should do or has anyone run into this prob?

Let your dealer actually look at it. Its under warranty after all

Thanks, it was the first thing i bought after i signed the papers lol gotta pay respects

Mikem53 · 11-07-2013, 05:29 PM

you might have broke the ABS sensor tone ring.. also try and redo the connection. Did you have the ignition off the entire time the part was disconnected?

Today I removed the mud flaps I installed 6 months ago..
dont like the look of them anymore.. never really did.. Meh.

I washed my car as the trees around me were covering it with fallen leafs..
was a very nice day to be out and washing the FRS here in NC.
It sure would look nicer if it were dropped an inch or more.. but
it ain't getting any easier falling in and out of the car as time marches on..
lol.. Still stock.. even more so today..
