Fuel recall done today...
Finally had it done today at Avante. They replaced the spark plugs, updated the flash (but they couldn't tell me which one, only that it was the lastest one) and replaced the starter. The car now fires up very nicely and hopefully no more hard starts cause I don't want to get stranded in the winter. All in all, great service as usual but the drive back from there at 6 pm was pretty hairy!!! Summer tires and ice don't mix and I kept getting idiots behind me trying to make me go faster. Anyway, winters rims and tires should be arriving on Monday so I can't wait to see the difference.

what kind of recall was that to replace the starter. I only get those fuel tank recall done which I think they put some heat seal around the fuel tank. I got a new flash but I think the flash make the fuel economy even worst. I realize now the rpm when started and idle is higher than the previous flash.

N3Y9-18-110 at no charge. Also, my fuel consumption seemed to have gotten better with the flash. I know better in 2 weeks or so. Then again, it might be hard to judge now since I will be warming the car a bit longer before driving off.
