I learned that earlier this season. Pretty bummed about it too since it was a nice discount for mailing in a check instead of online payment. Are you signing up for some secret event and not trying to tell us?

Amazing, I have more problems with my car now than when I started this adventure. At this point I wish I would have moved on, too much aggravation for a DD. Plus car right now is totally unreliable.

I am so happy right now that words escape me

Overheats in stop and go traffic or while idling. Valve Cover pressurizing is still the same problem as I started with. Only thing that is fixed is car no longer spits antifreeze all over the place.
I bet I might have screwed car up running it so hot on the way home from NJMP, it was pegged on H for water temp. I had heat on high when I realized and eventually it came down, car never stalled out or anything.

Today I caught caught in traffic on 76, car started overheating, took it to RT.

So now I have a car I cannot drive and I have been to RT 4 times for same problem, it has never been fixed (in my opinion). RT believes my car has something that just recently broke. Problem is they never fixed it right from the first time. I have been checking the car, boost leak test each time after it was there, problem has never improved.

So overheat is new problem (not necessarily RT's fault) but the valve cover pressurizing on leak tests was never fixed, but I was charged by them like it was. So now I am 4 times back and I get no explanation but it must be a new problem. I told dude there that its not a new problem because I checked this nightmare car myself, more like you guys didn't fix it right. At that point dude did not agree and I said please have owner call me if he cares to make this right. I am a reasonable person, but if I serviced ANY customer 4 times on there office furniture, said problem was fixed each visit and then customer had same problem, I would be out the door!

I got annoyed when I was told they need to do a leak down and compression test on car and they cannot do it until June 9th, 2 weeks which is unacceptable.

I believe the overheating thing is waterpump going, not head gasket. Gasket was good, last time I head off, havent got a 1000 miles on it yet. Plus it has ARP head studs, doubting that is problem.

I am going to drink alot tonight, that will surely help my problem.
