I'm surprised that in 3 years I have never made mistake when switching between the 6mt Z and 5mt Scion. I even down shift rev match on the scion without ever making the mistake of anticipating SRM to do it for me.

Did you let Andrew, Depointfive0, know? Supposedly he has some contact there that treats him and others right.

Is that the happy-ending part?

When I was driving it back from Vegas (where it was purchased) I went about 70mi of highway driving after the Hoover Dam before I realized I was in 5th gear on the highway.

Back from RR Nissan appt. I am going to drop the car off with them sometime next week possibly. They will look have their tech look at it further and determine whether the entire headliner needs to be replaced or not. Then it may take another appt for work to be done.

Yup. A while ago. No word back. But I know he had some issues with one of his vehicles, so I understand. Hopefully, I'll hear back from him, but I was pretty pleased with the dealer's attitude toward all of my concerns.

me, TOO!! I'm not holding my breath, but I'm hoping maybe Andrew will come through with someone who will go to bat for me or that I am able to convince the service guy that's it's in both our best interests to replace the liner - I get a real fix instead of a band-aid, and they get to charge Nissan for more labor and make more money
