Back from RR Nissan appt. I am going to drop the car off with them sometime next week possibly. They will look have their tech look at it further and determine whether the entire headliner needs to be replaced or not. Then it may take another appt for work to be done.

Yup. A while ago. No word back. But I know he had some issues with one of his vehicles, so I understand. Hopefully, I'll hear back from him, but I was pretty pleased with the dealer's attitude toward all of my concerns.

me, TOO!! I'm not holding my breath, but I'm hoping maybe Andrew will come through with someone who will go to bat for me or that I am able to convince the service guy that's it's in both our best interests to replace the liner - I get a real fix instead of a band-aid, and they get to charge Nissan for more labor and make more money

I fight with SRM every time I forget to turn it off after demoing it for a friend

It's not unusual for me to be in 1st or 2nd gear on the highway

Not this trip

He's going to tune it and give it back to me to drive and do some additional logging. Then I will take it back for any additional tweaks that might be necessary, and we'll do dyno runs for stock/tuned comparison

JARblue · 05-16-2013, 04:12 PM

BAM!! Rules be damned!!

JARblue · 05-16-2013, 04:14 PM

Also, I'm not going to Houston tomorrow, but my dad is still willing to meet me in New Braunfels to give me a ride home so I can still drop off the Z at the tuner's

Plus, I don't have to put as many miles on the Z, keeping me in better shape for my headliner warranty claim. They said as long as I get it to them for inspection to start the claim before I hit 36K miles, they will honor it even if the work isn't actually performed until after I pass the warranty mileage limit.
