well, the car ran great until I shut it off. Only warning light that came on was the battery lite, but, the little electric fan wasn't working - which they should have caught on the inspection. They aren't admitting to any shop error, they say that these pulleys tend to pop off (though I've never heard of it) and there's no way to know in advance short of pulling the belt and wiggling the pulley. I don't buy it at all, but if the head is warped it will be instantly noticeable. I've replaced warped heads on beamers in the past (personally :P) so I know what to look for.

My ex landlord of 10 years ago is a partner in a big Chcago lawfirm who told me to hire a certain firm that will work on contingency if I have a problem. Says most dealers will settle once they know you've hired these people cause they're tenatious bastards who always win :thumbsup:

Block and head are now both aluminum, so hopefully no warpage - but, they're an hour overdue in calling me with the damage report, which ain't good :ohcrap:

Hope everything turns out in your favor bro ;)

So did you get the other thing fixed ?

Thanks Bro :thumbsup:

I have a part on order for the pressurizer, once that gets here I'll find out if it makes a difference or not. I was reading up on these things and they're more complicated than I had thought :Dizzy:

Just got the car back, seems to be fine, but, call me a conspiracy theroist if you will, but they reduced the bill from $902 to $426 ... very very suspiscious to me. So in total they picked up over half the expense with the towing charge added. I don't buy it. If the engine goes south, I go to court :rofl: We'll see

Part just got here via UPS - not bad, overnight for 15 bucks.

It will have to wait for the weekend when the wife is home in case I screw up and need an ambulance :rofl:

Glade its working out for you!:thumbsup:

i think it would be good to have them there with your luck :laughing:

Come on man, I haven't blown anything up yet :laughing:
