Ms Spyder coming home, finally...

[murphybrown]

Getting ready to leave to go get Ms Spyder :clap:...dealer called Sat afternoon and said FINALLY she runs like the great machine she is. :thumbup: I will let you know what is on the work order besides new battery, O2 sensor, plugs...there were a couple other hiccups they told me, I don't remember those things...my standard response is hmmmmm just fix it...
Just checked the mountain pass report...Blewett is "bare and wet, frost & ice in places. Light snow. Snoqualmie is "bare & wet, snow & slush in places. Light snow" So I should be headed back over them after picking Ms Spyder up shortly after noon...things will, hopefully, improved...actually current condition I can handle...so better get my "survival" kit :yikes: (seriously I go nowhere without one..what goes in depends on time of year) tweeked. I Remember how my kids used to roll their eyes and say how ridiculous packing that STUPID bag was....guess who all have them now!!!! :yes:

I'm glad that you got Spydee back and the price was right. I'm surprised that the valve check was included in the warranty.

I see your service included a valve check. For future reference, would you post how many miles it was done at and whether or not it needed any shims or adjustments. Thanks in advance.

69K...needed NOTHING!!!!!

 

[Spacetrucker]

Welcome home..good night to you..

 

[ARtraveler]

69K...needed NOTHING!!!!!

Thank you murphybrown: I did my first when recommended, 12K miles on the 2008. The second one on the 2010 at 28K miles, and both did not need any adjustment. Each time I dropped about $800 bucks. The dealer mechanic messed up the job on the 2010 and failed to replace gaskets, causing oil to leak over everything. The job needed to be re-done, but the dealer covered that cost in full.

I think that I will let the 42K recommended one go as well as the 56K one.

Being the optimist that I know you are, now you know your Spyder has been checked, tuned and ready for Spyderfest. This was better than not starting on the first day of your trip:yes:
