Sometimes it doesn't start well, need alot of cranking.. Not sure what to do with the car yet as I know the dealer won't be able to re-create it and there's no CEL.

...and I hate to ruin that beautiful front end with a damn lisence plate !

I found that if I lean the my Droid X on the bottom cushion bolster so the power port is not on the seat cushion, the chime doesn't go off while the phone is charging. Basically, put it head-first into the seat cushion.

There's a slot next to the cup-holders in the center console that holds the phone perfectly. Who cares if you can't access it, you aren't supposed to be using it while driving anyways.

That is where it is most of the time, or in the door cup holder, but when mine is charging it doesn't fit in the slot without rattling around.

In the door cup holder? I'm referring to the center of the car.

Understood, which is why I said "or". Usually its either in the slot you referred to in the center console, OR in the door cup holder. I only lay it on the seat when its charging because it doesn't fit well in the slot in the cup holder insert when charging.

It seems a random thing. Some cars have this issue and some dont.

I'm going to change gearbox oil (redline MT90) soon. Will also fit the Perrin bush and Cusco gearbox collar. Hopefully will reduce movement for a more consistent and precise shift.

I new it was going to happen being the first run of the car but It is going in for the fuel pump tomorrow the loose side mirrors Saturday. and the super thin paint already has rock chips so now I have to fix those and get a clear bra. All minor just a lot of extra time to get it all done.
