Glad to hear they're getting you all set!
Failed to start Thursday morning, attempted a few things and looked at some stuff Thursday night. Didn't work.

Called and asked if I could get it in and how long the ETA was on turn around.
They said they'd try to get it done Saturday or today. So we'll see.

Had it towed to them around 10:30am friday. Then drove by Saturday to see if it was inside and it was. They called because my trunk wasnt opening, which is new. But the fobs battery died. My car has a replaceable battery in its fob.


Edit: $463 bucks later, my car starts again under its own power.
Would have liked to do something better than the autozone starter but time constraints limited that option. Wasn't waiting for fcp euro to ship one that still wouldn't be here even if ordered Thursday morning.(original estimate said this coming Wednesday)

New intake manifold gaskets, crank position sensor, starter and starter bolts. 3 hours of labor

So hopefully they'll have it done today. My backup beaters blend door failed and I have only defrost heat.
