So my dealer finally has the parts and I m going to book an appointment to get the 2 recalls (blower motor and hardness)

here are the 2 question

1 Would they touch the software in any way , my car is tune for the 3 stage intake and headers , so I do not want any updates. According to the receptionist they should not tough the software but I just want to make sure

2 would I get charge more labour for having them remove the 3 stage intake instead of the old one ...

thanks guys

no, they won't touch the software.

they remove the alternator to service the PCV heater harness.
it's less work and consumables than pulling the intake.

I took my 3sim converted e91 in for both and got it back just as it was, except the incorrectly installed drive belt.

how did you find out the belt was incorrectly installed

I ll be honest , I trust one my mechanic , but i m very hesitant to take my car to the dealer, specially went the car has been performing flawlessly

it squeaked like a mother the next morning. visual inspection showed it installed one rib off the alternator and power steering pullet. Alternator ate belt material.

was a clusterfuck to get the dealer to do a damned thing about it. service adviser ignored me, and my messages, for 3 days until I demanded to talk to the GM.

pop the hood before you leave, make sure it all looks right.
