I don't know what gives with these TCU's, I was told back on March 22, 2007, that my TCU was due for an upgrade.....a third time, Wellllllllll ...its now June 1 and they still don't have it. I was told they are on backorder, .....well thats one hell of a back order now for 2 months. The SA said they are so bad that as fast as they make them they fail and a new design has to be thought of. To tell the truth I still don't know what the hell is wrong with them.....Oh they also have the Oxygen sensor from behind the cat on backorder, thats been about 5 weeks..........WHERE DID I GO WRONG???????
