Default CLB How long has it been installed???

If you have installed the CLB how long has it been installed and, have you had any problems with the BCM? This seem to be a concern.......

Lasted 2 weeks. "Pull key wait 10 sec" message with it connected. No problems with it disconnected. Went through 2 units and both were installed correctly. These were C5 Solutions CLB's.

First one 1 week, then "Service Colum Lock". Got a replacement and its been 3 weeks now no problem. Then got a third replacement last week with a letter insturcting to replace the CLB I have. I don't think the second has a problem but I will keep the third one just in case. All are from COH. :confused:

10 months with a C5 Solutions CLB and no errors, codes, hassles or problems. I sleep real easy knowing the damn column will not leave me pizzed off.

I have absolutely no regrets or concerns and I'll do it again whenever I get the MY Z06 I'm getting a yearning for. :cheers:
