Well, after having much fun at the cruise I was driving home and on my way back noticed a serious lack of motivation when I was trying to pass people (It was taking two stomps of the go pedal to get any go :( )
So drive around a bit more yesterday, fuel guage by this time is doing Twilight Zone level stuff (Dropping to empty and bonging me at a light and then while I'm sitting there rising again and extinguishing the light) and I figure okay dealer time.
I drop the car off this AM, the service rep is looking at me with the look you reserve for the crazy relative you want to placate but off the car goes to get looked at.
I get called at work, both the sender unit in the tank & the fuel pump are pooched. Dealership doesn't have the parts in stock (I suppose it would be odd to have an '05 fuel sender & fuel pump in stock but geez...) What I didn't question and should have was the fact that the dealership is in Mississauga and the parts depot is in BRAMPTON! It's not like its a zillion miles away (In fact Mississauga and Brampton border on one another)
Did they redesign those parts again for '05? Or did I just get the assembly that was inserted on the line Friday at 5pm? <_<
