will you might get a scrach on your new car like my s2000 but you wont get a new car that was into an accident. i mean you can take them to court the next day if this happend. ask yourself why would they do that to loose there mitsu corp license for one car??? i am not against you here, i know where you are coming from but if i were you i will drive the car for the first 2 weeks see how it burns oil, how fast ?? left the car up and check any accident in the back, no matter how well they fixed it you still can see it if you are expert then take it back.. dont fight with them because you wont get no where( trust me)

as.three.ar.se I understand why so much code is being outsourced now.. That's a substantial collection of cars you own. You have and Evo, S4, GTI, and s2000? You must be quite a lucrative individual.

Claiming turbo car has gas in oil is just plain BS. So does ur s4 or Gti have gas smell in the oil? I don't think so. This is not my 1st turbo car. I previously owned a 2001 audi s4 with stage 2+ before that I also owned an ko4ed audi a4 and have **** load of friends who own full built Gti s and audis and NONE, I said NONE, has any gas in their oil. I don't know what is wrong with you or what happened today in ur life, but it clearly tells me you atleast woke up on the wronge side of your bed. I brought my car to the dealer today because i have concerns with my new car. Is this illegal? It is the principle that I'm pissed about today. Is that wrong?
this is my audi s4, the one without gas in the oil, With the GIAC chip the car runs mad rich and NO, NO, NO gas is inside my oil at all. If you really do own a gti or audi you should know that the car runs really rich stock or tuned and no gas should be inside your oil if you car is healthy.

rust in rear bumper
hello,
this may be totally off the topic, but i was told by a few friends who own the EVO that majority of the EVOs here in the US have rust in the rear bumpers. they said it's right there when you take off your bumper cover. is that true???

about 1 month ago, my rear tailights blew out and my abs light went on, i took it into the dealer (stevens creek), long story short they changed 2 fuses and voided my warranty because i have an aftermarket radio installed in there. i had to pay $60 for 2 fuses
however 3 days ago, the same thing happened so i took it to another dealership.
and guess what, they actually diagonised my car and found a bad electronic circuit board in my EVO and said its a manufactur defect and will be replacing the parts under warranty.
So later on this month i am going back to stevens creek mitusibhis and ***** the hell out of those guys and get my $60 back from those *******s. I went through the same thing, the service manager was being a dick to me. all in all, i will make a big scene on a busy day so other "potential buyers" can be aware that STEVENS creek mitsubishi is full of ****.
so dont worry man, if you dont argue your case, i'll be sure to argue mine and make a big *** scene to embarrass those ****ers, i've scheduled a few days off work so i'll be lurking there for a few days at the end of this month.

Az3ar here is a really good damn reason to ask for the actual data. my fiance brings her car in because it feels like the engine in misfiring when the gas gets below 1/4 tank. the dealer said they looked at it and that it was a common problem w/ the car and the gas gauge was programed wrong, i thought this was a little strange but didnt really think nething of it. about a month later she asks me to drive it to listen to a noise. the noise is a thrown rod, on our way to the dealership the engine blew. turns out when they made the car they put timing marks in the wrong place, and when the timing chain was replaced it wasnt timed correctly causing the thrown rod causing a blown engine. now its out of warranty and guess who is **** outta luck. so get off this guys *** because he wants his $30,000 car to run right

Maybe they were bluffing?
