Default My first crap experience with Laurel

After all the **** Ive put up with them...was honest with them didnt put up fights, Ive finally drawn the line.

They are refusing to cover a bad O2 because of K-04 turbos, an intake (which I dont even have), and the cat-back exhaust. They claim this is why the MIL came on...a year later. RIIIIIIIIIIIGHT. Gonna be doin some bitchin' tomorrow. I feel your pain CarbonLord!

Their claim is actually pretty reasonable, sorry.

Default A different turbo, exhaust, or cat could affect the temperature of the O2 sensors and

the programming you're running could affect the A/F ratio, causing the 02 sensors to give implausible readings, which would in turn trigger a CEL. The 02 sensors may or may not be ruined, but in any event it *could* be caused by the mods.

Default The good news is they're not too pricey and you can likely put a new one in yourself.

I'd first confirm that theyre' actually toast tho.

Default I think if you go in and bitch they will likely ask you to **** off

and never come back.

perhaps you should save the freak out for a more expensive part lol.

dont buy it from the dealer, just say fine and take off. find out what code you are throwning
