I ran my car with that ecu for 2 years before having an apexi power fc custom tune put in. Well the guy emailed paypal and filed a claim in 2 weeks for a refund. I would not give him money back until he mailed it back to me. I think he had a wiring issue in his car and finally had a shop repair it for him. Well after he gave me negative feedback for my efforts he also would not drop the claim with paypal since he had to send in a tracking number to get the return. Never came and finally it timed out. Another guy I sold a 60 dollar s14 starter to on eBay said he never got it even though I sent it out priority mail and it showed deliver confirmation. I just said screw it and gave him his money back.
That is what the OP was stating is that he does not want to do business with those types and that is his decision. I own an 06 A4 2.0 turbo and it is faster than the NX I own. As far as the NX, I have restored a lot of it, the bumper has been reworked, the hatch has been leaked proof and I installed a pioneer digital media center with sirius radio. IMO it is a nice car, however it is 20 years old and not perfect. Did I pay too much? probably but it is still nicer than the 150-200 thousand mile NXs in autotrader from time to time that sell for 2500 to 3500 dollars. Is the mileage fake, I do not know? I thought about doing something but in the end it was not worth my time. Cause while the mileage could not be determined the fact that it was wrecked in the rear end made me question anything this guy said. I can tell you something though I will never buy another car ever off of FleBay with out looking at it first.
WTF???
Who is this guy referring to??
Ban was well deserved.
Good luck with your NX,jamanrr.I dont think you are gonna get much help on your car here anymore.Obviously you re still butthurt about your NX .
We arent the ones that fucked you on that deal,yet we are the douchebags??...
Just go trolling somewhere else...like the Audi forums.
....PLEASE
Back on topic.
I am sorry to see what has happenned to OEM,but after seeing some other posts and scams on other forums,I guess its good riddance.Scary what Google brought up on these guys.
I am local and have been to the shop and bought a couple small things.No real problems for me,but apparently I am an exception.
I had plans to buy a bunch more parts from them,but I will pass.
People bitch about this community running off vendors...and there are some people here that may make things hard for them....but overall,we are just trying to protect ourselves from the bad ones.
Its not THAT hard to please most of us.There are many other members and vendors who go above and beyond for us and make QUALITY parts,with GREAT service after the fact..
ALL you have to do is what you say you are gonna do...thats it!!
If not,as a small business owner,it is your responsibility to make YOUR messups right....regardless of what it costs out of pocket.
Apparently,Mark has not taken OEM seriously...he stated it was not a full time job and its extra money.That alone proves where he stands on this.
Have fun with your Lasers,hope it keeps you busy,and try not to shoot your retinas out
