Yep, I just had mine fixed at the dealer two weeks ago.

Haven't noticed yet. Perhaps I need to look more closely. Good luck getting it resolved.

On an unrelated note...1 more day to go until Friday!! (wish we had a dancing banana emoticon)

Yup, sitting at the dealer getting those taken care of, along with the HPFP and Nav fix.

Posted this on the link for THill track event 2/8, since I'm trying to prepare for it and future track days. So, being NorCal off-topic, I thought it would be aight to post it here too. Appologies for the double post:

So I found LPI Racing in Livermore yesterday. Went over and checked them out. Small outfit but cool guys running the show. They don't work on cars but the guys are experienced track enthusiasts. They have racing equipment in stock but I was really there to check out their helmets - they have Bell and Simpson in stock and I tried majority of them to get the size and fit. And I think I found the Bell M4 that fits right.

LPI Racing
2021 Las Positas Court #145
Livermore, CA 94551
(925) 292-5523
lpiracing.com

I spoke with Stephen Anderson (VP) most of the time but there was another gentlemen (forgot his name) and both were patient in sharing their knowledge and recommendations with me. I'm a brick 'n mortar type of buyer, unless the online prices are ridicously underpriced, so I think I may found a local shop with my interest. Going back soon for the stuff I will need for future endeavors with the FR-S. And no, I am not receiving any benefits from them posting their info - thought I'd just share my thoughts of a local shop with equipment and knowledge I need.

I'm afraid to take mine out of the garage and let it simmer in this weather, so no, haven't experienced it yet. But I do look for it constantly.

Damn, at this point, I could have walked there and checked it out. My "1.5 hour" service I decided to wait on instead of dropping the car off turned into 4 hrs. and counting... Thanks for the tip anyways, might drop by after.
