I went the first time and they said they pu the wrong spark plugs in I was like WTF. SO they replaced them for free. Who knows this time, Im not to worried it is driving fine and all the gauges show everything is good. Good luck.

SAE90 is what diaqueen is. 80 would be too thin if you climate is warm/hot and or if you drive the car hard for extended periods of time. This is an educated guess.. I'm no expert.

Shavings in the fluid is not good news :\ I would ask TRE specifically about this ASAP.

As for the SES.. if you're worried about it being DC just unplug your MAF/MAS sensor on the airbox and start the car.. gurantee'd to throw a code if you don't mind resetting it.

well no matter what im taking it in on monday to mitsubishi... il go shop around all the dealerships to see if they have any diaqueen then il take it back to my friends shop to replace it...i think i already have too many shavings off and the whole TC has to be replaced... my car is stock, so do you think the dealership will deny me anything? and will they give me a loaner car?
