I have the new tcm coming in tomorrow and i dont wanna go through the same problem again.
This is very odd and requires further investigation. When I did my Paddle shifter install back in December the mounting plate in the passenger side footwell where the TCM and Audio Amp is mounted was high and dry. A couple weeks ago I went to swap out my TCM with a tuned one and found an oily substance on the bottom edge of the mounting plate. I thought it was strange but cleaned it up and continued on. I think we need to ask Rudy for his expertise as to where this oil can be coming from. Now it seems that we need to worry about enough oil there to fry components?.
I think we should all be concerned.
