Hi folks! Thank you so much for all the kind words and encouragement. I'm sorry to be so late posting responses; it's frustrating not being able to get to the board during the day and it's been a busy weekend!

Regarding my engine repairs; we're still in a holding pattern, waiting on the extended warranty company. The Alcoa dealership is having to fax them my maintenance records (as they live in the car), and there are a LOT of them.

As of Friday afternoon, they told Ron they were still "missing a few things", and the Honda service rep had the day off, so it'll be the next couple of business days before we can find out EXACTLY what they're still missing, and get the records to them.

Until then, the dealership won't do anything until they know who's paying for it. Can't say that I blame them, but it is aggravating.

Will let you know soon as I have any news. Thanks again!

Sorry to read this, Sheila. Really wishing you well and hoping all turns out great for you. I'm sure you miss your S. I hate it when I have to put mine in for maintenance for just a day. Best wishes to you.

I'm in Knoxville if there is anything I can do locally to help out.

Airport Honda is where I bought mine, and they do seem like decent people.

Good luck with everything!
Jason

Thanks, everyone!

Latest update: The waranty company gave Alcoa Honda permission to tear down the engine and see "what the problem is". Standing by......
