and this is why i do all the work i can on my own car lol

too bad i think i'm gonna buckle and use my free steering column lock change that nissan sent me. i need the clock spring in there replaced anyways (no power going to the lighting of the steering controls, and horn not working now, possibly no air bag either lol) so while they are in there might as well do a swap. all free but i dont trust any fckin lot boys after the last time my car was in there mysteriously was 12 extra miles put on my car (yes im that guy who takes pics to know what was on the car when it went it) now i wish i had my tuner put a valet map on my car lol

pull the fuse once you get the ESCL replaced...

I take pics of mileage, too, and I make sure someone in authority knows this before I leave the car. That way they know it's their a$$ if something is amiss. I want valet mode so bad.

I'm working with a tuner nearby on the new ECUtek software. They have a track Z they've been working with, and were looking for a street Z to build their tune in the new software. The multiple tune feature is still in development but will be available to me once it is finished and released by ECUtek. Hopefully I can get my car to them next weekend; they want $175 for the license and everything else is free

well if they replace the faulty SCL i'm guessing the fuse SHOULDN'T need pulled but who knows lol

glad to hear i'm not the only one who does that lol i bitched about the mileage they tried saying they had to take it from the shop to the dealership shop (they have 2 shops due to volume of cars they sell/service) to reset the the power windows......which i have done myself with the window switches if the windows screw up. so thats BS lol

$175 is a great price

They'll replace it with a Rev D, which had documented failures prior to the recall. I have a 2011 with Rev D, and I pulled my fuse last fall. I'm not in the recall.

Just got the letter myself.

Trying to decide if I want to update or not. Honestly, the system isn't that great anyway. I've had a number of places it wouldn't find (but Google Maps did). Kinda crazy using a $3000 system that can't find a house when the free Google Maps on my wife's phone knows where it is.
