Default Beware of seller Richee

Brought an aem v2 intake from him told me everything was there.
But one of the hose that connects to the intake tube to the engine is missing and also there's suppose to be a bushing with nut that holds the 2nd piece of the intake to the frame is missing. Although i could replace these part but just that the seller Richee told me everything was there and when I tried to put the intake on I realize some parts is missing. Just an heads up to you guys.
Thanks

Most likely the bushing broke because they are brittle. This might be the reason why he didn't include it. Either way he should have told you.

What else was missing?

No, he hasnt tried working it out personally. Ive tried looking for it and I havent gotten to chance to PM him about the update. Dont assume things and bash people when the issue isnt resolved yet. Know your role.

sounds like he bypassed the throttle body warmer....not an issue if you are in southern climates (I too have a vacuum tube missing, but its not really needed in FL). The tube costs $1 at your local parts store. You can also pick up a rubber washer at any hardware store for about $.25. Many people do not consider these part of the intake, as they degrade with time, and need eventual replacement.

Just be glad the actual intake is there....

I told him I would look for the bushing and, coincidentally, as jasonjm stated, its pretty worn. As for the hoses, I replaced my stock ones with them and threw out the stock ones and I offered to reimburse him. First time buyer so I understand the apprehension but I dont understand the irrationality.

are you kidding???? please.... you tried putting it on? more like you dont know what you're doing. if you're going to try to ruin someones reputation on a 1$ tube as well as a small rubber peice that you can get for 75cents at a local hardware store, get a life....

GUys take a look at this thread
