Stealership 100

Local gm dealer charged me 104 bucks to program out my f45 shocks. Funny thing is they told me it can't be done so I had to argue with them to let me do it. Another house of untrained monkeys. It took me under ten minutes

It is sad that you had to pay them to teach them how to do their job.

I had no choice I was going to the Dyno in a few hours. Without a new tune my 2001 6sp with 101k on clock. Lg long tubes ported throttle body and varraram did 368hp 395 torque. But driving it home it bucks and stalls . My tuner was missing a part for his tune, something that measures A/f ratio so he didn't want to adjust much. But it's almost I drivable . I'm so close to buying a 2012 grand sport , wife gave me the ok. But 50,500 for a car 1Lt.

Fools want to charge an hour to program a new fob for a Pontiac I have. Need the Tech II to do it, not like older models where you can do it from inside the car-PROGRESS.
