Suncoast for parts for me after Pfaff told me they don't offer the PCA discount on parts. I'm not sure why some are or were getting the discount and some weren't. I must have pissed someone off. I couldn't even get a coffee when I had my car in for service. My service advisor told me they don't offer coffee for customers and the nearest coffee was at the Timmies 20 min away on foot. I was pretty surprised when I returned and the showroom receptionist pointed out the cappuccino machine in the lounge area. I guess I wasn’t giving my SA a big enough tip.

Funny, when I was at Downtown getting my touch up paint and clear side market lights, they told me no PCA discount. So I asked Pfaff and they told me no as well. I guess my order was too small, less than $80 IIRC.

I think they get a commission on part sales... .

Zookie everything was done yesterday, ended up replacing the whole wheel well liner.
Actually I was very surprised today when I went it to get it, instead of 2300 they first told me it was 1300 taxes in.
They quoted me for a almost $1000 painted lower runner board which ended up being only $200 since mine is not painted, and the wiper blade cap they said was $80 ended up being 2.50c.
After all the good news and starting up it with no blue smoke, I was feeling good. Oil sensor must have been the issue causing the smoke. Oil pressure sensor seemed to work before fine but bounced around a lot, now its dead steady. That or the new catalytic converters.
When I drove it home it felt a lot stronger then what I was used to and a lot quieter. Lots of power at 4k in 4th gear. I don't know but it was way stronger not seat in your pant feeling, I drive it daily and just know how it was feeling. Maybe the cats with the extra back pressure fixed it, don't know for sure maybe less back pressure if the cats were blocking it.
Then while I parked in the garage and couldn't hear that awful rattle from the cats I was pretty damn happy with my 996.
