First time to the shop....

My baby's first time to the shop is scheduled on Monday.

I'm debating mentioning the surging idle when I drop it off, it was only BAD once when I was downhill, all other time it's very little almost unnoticeable.

But I'm dropping it off with gas receipts to have them check it out (resetting battery netted a few more mpg, but i'm still under 20). And having them fix the rear driver side suicide door, and hopefully the moonroof too.

All minor stuff, but I'm taking monday off both jobs so I can do it

monroeville (will they have 2 redlines in at the same time???), I should have my new r6 by that point and I'll just ride that instead


btw the most awesome thing about calling the service guy is he didn't say 'what's a redline', rather 'what year is your redline?'

yea!!

I would go ahead and get the flash. It seems to fix the minor issue if you have stock injectors.

I imagine the default will be to re-flash the ECU to try to fix your gas mileage issue. Gonna bring mine in for a re-flash to see if it is different than my June 14th software. What's up with the sunroof and door?

i've actually had my roof/door adjusted because i was getting alot of wind noise. they settled the roof down and tightened up the door... no wind noise now

the tech said they have problems with door seals on the quad coupes and they tend to create wind noise in the roof panel between the sunroof and the door.
