Default so i brought my car to the dealer this morning with a laundry list for the 50k..

however after they entered everything in, the dealer tells me that my warranty expired 7/31!! I guess I had forgotten that I paid for the car in July rather than August. In anycase the dealer I could call AoA and maybe get them to cover the service. I called AoA gave told them of the situation and was then placed on hold while they contacted the dealer. When they finally get back, they actually say that they WILL cover the 50k service. However the other items won't be covered.

Should I be happy that AoA is covering the 50k or should I have tried to get the laundry list covered?

Default Take what you can get.

They don't have to give you anything.

Default It's good that they are honoring the 50k. Bring them donuts...

I didn't have a list per se at 50k but I brought in donuts and a note thanking them for taking care of my baby. The Techs put a fine tooth comb over my car and found a leaking rear diff seal and fixed it. I haven't really had an "OEM" issue since. I was already modded a bit at the time, Neuspeed/Bilstein suspension, Milltek Exhaust, chip, and short shifter.
