Grrrrrrrrrrr.
Well, the gongshow continues. In order for the shop to tune my car's ECU (brain) unit, they actually need a similar car to install my ECU into, and then plug into the car's data ports. They are unable to just plug directly into the ECU. This wasn't a problem last week because the shop had a WRX there that they were going to use. But come today they realized that the guy had come and got his car and gone out of town!
PROBLEM. So a message is posted on the Subaru Message Forums in the Vancouver section asking for help. The shop offers up some good deals on parts and services to anyone willing to drive out to Squamish tomorrow (Tuesday) for a few hours and have their car be used as the connecting link for my ECU tuning. Finally I get an email saying that somebody will be coming - finally relief!
So now as long as the tuning goes fine tomorrow and in a timely manner it will be sent out for an overnight delivery to me and I'll receive it on Wednesday.
I also just happened to be looking around at our company flight schedule, and we currently have a plane in Vancouver that is due to come back tomorrow afternoon. Intriguing isn't it! So if anyone is able to drive out to Squamish to do a parcel pick-up and deliver my ECU (small box) to the Vancouver airport by 2:30pm tomorrow (Tuesday Aug 29th), please email me or post here immediately! It would save me an entire day of not having my car, and helping to put an end to this huge fiasco! I will be very grateful!!!
