Yeah - makes me wonder if this was even real, or just thrown up on the forum to spread FUD about the C7.

Won't be nearly the first time.

I suspect there are many others.

I wonder if the OP's decision not to report back was a function of many choosing to take a big dump in his thread?

The OP was belittled for reporting what he thought he was told by his dealer. His problem was real and serious; the diagnosis he posted could have been wrong. Now, some are even calling him a troll for reporting his issue.

I'm not surprised he's not posting a progress update ... in fact, I would be surprised if he ever returns to this forum.

dude this is a weird thread. Did anyone actually post why the OP thought the started caused all of this and why he felt the need to warn other C7 owners like it was immanent?
