Just curious; what are you being charged for all of that, parts and labor?

Yeah, I didnt think it was too bad. Looks like it should be done soon! Shop called today to tell me they thought I might need a starter, while I was on the phone I guess they figured it out. I told them that my push button starter is a PITA some times. What I gathered from that was: if they're trying to start it, it must be almost done

Well folks, after one hell of a long journey, Im proud to say that the Mamba lives!!! Picked her up and she fired right up. Took her to the carwash for a spray down, shed gathered quite a bit of dust in the past 3 months, then a full tank of premium, and were back in business!!! Videos soon I hope!

Well, the issues continue. Car wont go to WOT since I got it back, lost 2 quarts of oil somewhere, and now its overheating. I can start it up and within 5 minutes the temp gauge goes all the way up.
