As far as your first question, you can consider yourself lucky!  |
Jim,
Yes, they sent another one once I was convinced that it had to be the ETA, and once I convinced the owner (?) that the ETA was Dead On Arrival. He shipped it out pretty quickly. Once I knew the shop had it, I drove over there to see if they had put it in already; they had not, so I grabbed it, and plugged it into the connector and turned the ignition on....I saw it move, and immediately knew that my odds of having my car back, had shot up significantly! Before they could get it into a freed up bay, I started to work on taking out the old one - I think they could tell I wanted my car back lol.
As a side note, the car so far, runs better than ever - no more hesitation. I'm going to drive it a little more tomorrow, to make sure - after driving the 300D for several weeks, getting back into the E420 is almost something akin to culture shock. heh
