• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Short lived Spyder experience

Looks like you missed the pics of what he found. The HCM oil filter cover was not snugged up, was pushed open, and the O-ring blew out.
 
Happened on my 2010 RT.....

Well I have had my 08 for 2 weeks. The first week it sat. Second week it was in the shop getting serviced. Got it back home last Saturday. Titled and tagged Monday. Rode to work Tuesday and Wednesday 60 miles round trip each day. On the way in this morning sitting at a traffic light it starts billowing smoke. Pull into the gas station at the traffic light and it dumps all the oil on the ground.

I have wanted a Spyder for so long and now not so much. I might be jumping the gun and it may be something easy and a fluke, but I doubt it. Shop said it was in great shape and ran very nice with only 13k miles on it. Definitely has f*ucked my whole day already.

It was a tech error after oil change. I was traveling thru WY...had oil changed about 600 miles before at highway speed all the smoke and I was sure my Spyder was on fire...ever seen an old lady go from 70 mph to side of road and standing a long way away in 10 seconds flat. Yep only the antelope enjoyed the show. Had to call rollback. finally got me to a dealer and yep plug not replaced properly...great dealer in NE owned up to the "oh crap" moment....yep took much $ and time (but hey I'm retired and life is a journey) and eventually all was made good.
If I was you I would be taking a hard look at work done at dealership. :thumbup:
