Mann i dont wanna bring this up, but i HAVE to say. Out of all the forums ive been on for the multiple cars ive owned. THe tc was a let down on reliability? Maybe itz just over reacting but there are alot of problems for a car thats still brand new. Ive read on alot of people having similir problems, even on stock, or Auto's that dont even mess with their car (atleast they say). Well anyway , i hate the dealerships too but if you got no other choice. Going to the dealer cant be bad if u got the money. becuase alot of pop shops just are so shady and seem like scammers. Atleast in m-town. So please keep us updated once u do take it to the dealer.

-Good luck to ya ., Tony
