HELP! Crappy plastic intake blows its lid...
Well, I knew it was coming, but I just didn't think so soon....
The crappy stock plastic intake is now toast, and there's a problem.... Although the service department at the dealership admits the part is a piece of crap, they will not replace it for free for 2 reasons... 1. (I knew this was coming) The supercharger. Since it technically voids all warranties, as far as the dealership is concerned, the 7 year extension for the intake is null and void. Now I haven't gotten my lawyer coat on yet and went down there and said, "By law, you have to PROVE it was the supercharger". But if I have to do that do I really want them working on my car? 2. The "tech" guy said that although there indeed is a TSB on the issue, the 98 model year doesn't come up with the problem in their OASIS database. (Although its the exact same intake as the 96-97) Any advice here? I NEED my car, and I don't have the time and money to mess around with this dealership. The "tech" guy admits that these intakes freely blow with no mods at all, yet they won't replace it under the TSB. I asked him, "If I take the car, pay to have the supercharger removed, and took it to a dealership, would they replace it?" He said "probably"... So what the hell is the difference? The ******* supercharger was making a whole ******* 3lbs of boost because of the whole MAF ordeal.... (which I finally got replaced) To sum it all up, any advice would be appreciated.... ------------------ "The Yellowjacket" Ricer 1: What the heck was that!? Ricer 2: I don't know. It looked kind of like a yellow SN95 Mustang. Ricer 1: Nah, fast SN95 Mustangs don't exist... Must have been a mirage or something... |
