Dealer never charged me labor for GMS1

i purchased stage1 off another forum member here for $475

i had brough my car in to get that installed along with some other warranty stuff.

Upon picking up my car the cashier said that im all set.

I asked how much i owe and she said nothing cause it was all warranty work.

I was like oh ok and took off.

Looks like the dealer is going to eat the install costs. when they try and turn that ticket in for warranty.

Your sure they installed the kit and the reflash? I know its a dumb question but it has happened once at our dealer with th SC cobalts.

i do 20 psi and the car def pulls harder.

2nd gear looses traction looses traction majority of the time if i stop it on in 2nd gear

If you install sensors with no tune you get a check engine light, im pretty sure of it?

On the install sheet i circled the activate number and highlighted the calibration number just so they wouldn't mess up




Ok im looking at my invoice;


INSTALL UPGRADED TURBO PART ON FRONT SEAT


************************************** (bunch of bull crap)
**************************************

12771 INSTALL KIT, CALL TAN FOR CALIB NO., PROGRAM ECM


According to the invoice they did it correctly

Yea you can't beat free but just a suggestion. Next time you need warrenty work try a different dealer, they might catch their mistake and be waiting for you to come back
