At this point i was told thursday of last week if the technician wasnt able to find the issue per the diagnosis procedures from the engineers they will have to fly an engineer out to try to find the issue. Ive yet to call to see if an engineer has made it/on their way.IG @gt3_brz

I know this has been said before, but I'll echo it, you are far more patient than I could ever be in this situation. It's crazy how much they are dragging their feet with all this. Hoping you get it resolved quickly though, such a bummer.
On topic, I know most clear coated carbon pieces tend to yellow over time. Raw carbon looks cool, but is more difficult to maintain over matched paint. Either way you go, it's going to look great though.

Bit up an update. I have been emailing back and forth with a representative from SOA (Subaru of America). Essentially explaining my extreme frustration with this whole ordeal, with the date for the FSE to come out and look at my car being pushed back twice now. Ive inquired several times in our email exchange regarding recourse or compensation for the time my car has been at the dealer, 4 months now. As i have been paying my note and insurance for 4 months. I also asked at what point is an alternative solution considered after throwing so many parts at my car to attempt to fix it. Both questions have not gotten any sort of clear answer. The best ive gotten is once the vehicle is repaired correctly they will "review what options may be available". In short saying once your cars fixed and you pick it up THEN we will consider it, which gives me absolutely zero leverage against them if i pick the car up.
Anyway, the wife and i have discussed it in great length the situation and what to do about it. We both ultimately came to the conclusion even if they repair the car correctly and its returned to me regardless of any sort of compensation we will either be selling or trading it in. I dont exactly have alot of trust in that the issue can be fully resolved. My original plan before the issues started were once it was paid off to buy a large 4 door to daily and have the brz as a toy. Well with all thats happened and what not the new plan is to just offload the brz and pick up a big luxury 4 door daily.
It kills me to get rid of the brz as i LOVE the chassis and how it drives, but this whole process has left an extremely sour taste in my mouth and i cant shake it. All the parts i have colected over the last 2 years are for sale. If you are interested in something shoot me a private message. I have all the parts listed in a bunch of facebook groups, and dont really plan ok listing them in the forums unless im unable to sell a few things.IG @gt3_brz

Dude it's a tech that got in over his head and then their dialog with you got convoluted because the service writer was being fed shaky info from the tech. It's a resolvable issue by a competent technician. This is literally the third "I give up" update to a build thread in one day.
If it comes down to it, Megasquirt the fucker. Why suck the passion out of your own hobby because some dimwit at the dealership isn't probing the right pins or checking resistance on the right sensors?

Im not "giving up" as trust me id love to keep the car, but given the circumstances we have been dealt it doesnt make a whole lot of sense for us to retain the car. I am by no means going to suck the life out of my hobby, the car i get next wont be some bland 4 door granny car. I tried driving a stock silverado everyday, it didnt work for me, too damn boring, thats what led me to purchasing this car.IG @gt3_brz
