Default "oil sludge" warranty really transferable???...

just got off the phone with my dealership... "oil sludge" letter specifically says it's transferable, however they're saying since the records are missing from the last service they have on record with previous owner (26k) and time I purchased the car (59k)they're trying to get out of having to repair it... currently on hold with AofA and expecting a call-back from the dealer trying to get the previous owner's info... updates to follow.

Default dunno why everybody is jumping on this bandwagon.... there are several parts in short or zero supply

right now.

058-103-213-m
058-103-221-a
058-103-221-D
06A-103-213-F
06B-103-213-G
06B-103-213-K

those parts are either in short supply or are backordered nationally.

Default update...

A of A seems to be on my side from what I can tell... dealership's now saying they'll diagnose the problem and we'll take it from there.

Default plus most of use already use quality syn oil and change under10k...all

we should need is the bigger filter. Not that we need it, a little extra oil never hurt.
