Default Problems, problems, problems - update

Called APR and they think its a failed ECU and will replace free of cost, I will have to only pay for shipping. Question- the fact that I bought the car with the ECU, does the warranty transfers to me? I didnt mention this to APR for fear of being hit with a bill.

Most of the time is the soldering issue. If you handy, DIY

Default I had to pay a warranty transfer fee - $150

Was required when they changed the 93 file to a 91 file.
