What if the new SKREEM goes bad as well? This time these was no warning, simply one day I was not able to start. There must be a better solution to this, I feel. BTW, anyone out there knows the cost at the dealer? The SKREEM, programming, keys if needed? This might be my only option, I guess.
Thank you
1) Buying 'the kit' on eBay is the worst thing you can do.
2) Taking the car to a dealer is the second worst thing you can do.
If you do EITHER of those, you will NEVER get the car running. And most of us will ignore your posts asking for help, because, well, it's a waste of time.
If you want to get the car going, start a NEW thread here and le'ts talk about symptoms and what you have tried. If we can prove it's the SKREEM or ECM, there are companies that fix them, and just today Rob at NEEDSWINGS announced he has, once again, the ability to supply keys and SKREEMS. ROB is the guy you should spend money with, not dealers or eBay.
