1k mile first service tomorrow...any suggestions?
Question:
In addition to the oil and filter change and ECU dump, I plan to ask them to check the rear toe link and the oil cooler connections. Anything else I should ask for? Thanks in advance!
Answer:
Many issues with the oil cooler actually relate to it breaking (like mine) rather than the connection being correct. Checking may require front clam removal - something the dealer will not do...I complained about the headlight aim (even though I wasn't sure) It turned out one side needed a significant adjustment. Answer:
i paid $ 350.00 @ 1k ecu and oil, filter change.

The oil coolers are inspected along with a long list at our store. Cheers, Don. Answer:
One suggestion, post more than 24 hours in advance so people can reply. I had the gear box oil changed at the 1000 mile service, and it made the shifting smoother. So a search too, there are other suggestions here... Answer:
Thanks for the suggestions. The service went fine. The guys at FVMC did a nice job. One thing they did that I was not aware of before today, was to install headlight "embellisher" rings. They are standard now on the '06's but not on the '05's. It's supposed to prevent scraches/burns on the headlight lenses.BTW, while I was there, I saw a yellow Elise that was having the Sector 111 brake rotors installed. Anyone here? It looked very cool.
