I think Peter gets it right most of the time, but I suppose that there are other glitches in stuff like the speedometer, the wiring and the mechanicals that he doesn't get to check and therefore can't fix if they are broken.

I am sorry you are having trouble and hope you get it working well soon. Perhaps I am lucky. My 300TD came with no amp at all and I had to send him one from a junker that luckily found defunct for $20.
