Warranty/recall/tsb work done on my VIII

~35k miles - some dash bulbs
~ ??k - fan controler relay
~47k claimed 3rd gear grind which I never had, I just did it for an excuse to have a clutch done for free
~50?k - tcase went
~63k - rep warrantied my Brembos as a going away gift.

We already went over the X. Oh, and I have not even brought up my seat issue with them yet.

Qw already went over the X. Oh, and I have not even brought up my seat issue with them yet.
Yea first years suck....
My Ralliart:
- Left and right rear control arms (trailing arms according them??)
- Throw out bearing rattle
- Fan Controller (5-6 of these...)
- Clutch Master Cylinder (2 of these)
- Tail light fogging
- Replaced two front struts because one blew out prematurely
- Replaced front driverside control arm
- ECU replacement (car all of a sudden just died on me a month after buying it)

Selling that car was the best investment I made (lost 2g's off it from the tranny rebuild) but hey... I'm happy with the car I gots now.
