    Me too!

    I too find the corporate shilling deplorable. All man made machines have problems, sharing and resolving these problems is what makes product lines survive long term not hiding, faking, and BS!

    Really?

    Sorry to hear of your being conned by a mechanic. What you stated them doing is pure, unadulterated BS. You have been had. Run away and never return to the seen of the crime.
