If I recall, they contract out some other detailing shop to do the ppf/ceramic stuff.
Hopefully the manager accommdates you well lolol.

Might do it on August. Will keep you posted, but definitely will mention you before they do the maintenance. Thanks for the update bro! 🫡

I’m quite happy with it. comfort mode is very comfortable, and +R mode feels a lot tighter, and I don’t experience the bouncing from bumps that I was feeling.

Thanks! The biggest annoyance I had with R+ mode was the bounciness that u mentioned. Under hard cornering at around 1g, I was experiencing wheel hop which would sometimes unsettle the chassis. Even on my 18in wheels. Will be experimenting with the 19s soon.

Is it a dealership thing that they unplug the cameras in the car? Had that happen today, tech didn't plug back in so I'm a little annoyed with it. I've got air tags and tag on the car so they knew not to drive it around town. I think I'm going to do my oil changes myself going forward.

I mean it makes sense. I wouldnt want someone filming me at work. I dont think it automatically means they are doing something bad.

The service mgr and tech supervisor said that as long as they're actively working on the car, they're allowed to remove the dashcam. As long as they don't take it out onto the public road. They're allowing me to watch them work on the car now after the whole fiasco though.

That’s fair. At least if you can watch them it does give more peace of mind. I’m just wanting to be cautious. I don’t exactly trust these guys especially not being familiar with the dealership.

Fair enough, can't blame you lol. I wish dealers would disclosed this info before hand. Oh well, doing oil changes yourself saves money too haha

Yeah I would’ve preferred they said something but it’s fine. I’ll keep my $140 and do my own oil changes next time lol.

I just got my new dashcam installed, along with the tamperproof case (for that very reason for the dealership(s) to not be able to just disconnect the dashcam power )
