Starting to not like this car anymore
Ever since I bought my FR-S it's been giving me problems, from crickets to bad TOB, and now grinding at low rpms and probably the synchros going bad. I'm thinking about just trading it in at a loss and getting something better, this car seems to be full of issues

If you didn't want crickets, why did you buy an FRS in the first place?

The crickets weren't really an issue, how long it took to fix was. 4 weeks to get parts and replaced, I hope my synchros doesn't have to be replaced because God knows how long they'll keep my car there. |

You don't have to leave your car at the dealer while they are waiting for parts

You paid $17k for a four year old used car and are complaining it has some issues?
They should stock every single part for every model and year? You have any idea what they would charge for cars and service to maintain that stock? You choose to have a perfectly functioning part that makes a little noise every now replaced but then whine about how long it took? You are also talking about modding and think that will not create issues? Go grab a 4 year old BMW and see how that works out for you. I get you are frustrated but things could be far worse.
