If they do need replacing, doesn't mean he will have to pay if he was chipped.

You can blame Panasonic for the gremlins in the radio.

Default check your State Attorney General's website...

they typically have the complete text of the Lemon Law for the state and it's usually clear enough that you can tell if you might quailify.

In CA it was 30 days out of service and/or 4 visits and/or serious unresolved safety defect in the first 18 months (of the warranty).

Default Sorry they couldn't find the other issues. Your car's still not making full boost?

That's so weird. Hmm.....I'm glad they replaced your F-hose. How did they know to fix it? I wonder if my having a nice long talk with Tony had anything to do with it....cuss before didn't they tell you that it was normal?

Maybe today or tomorrow we can try and pin point that rattle. I can ride next to you on either side of the car while you get on it and less for the noise. Maybe we can atleast pin point it to a side of the car?

Oh yeah....19s are back on. ;p

Well, AoA sent out a bulletin to all their dealers saying they are not covering chipped turbos.
