Message You guys won't believe the weekend I had....
Me and my girl went to atlanta to hang out this
weekend bought a few goodies for the z at
z1 motorsports and on our way home we
hear this weird whine noise coming from the back end
every time I stepped on the gas, car starts sputtering as well.
So I decided to take the car to z1 motorsports to get
it checked out instead of risking the drive back to nc
and breaking down. Anyways, after z1 diagnoses the problem
I find out that the whine is being caused by my fuel filter
which had not been replaced and the 60K maintenance I paid to have done at this shop in fayetteville a week after I bought the car (2 months ago) had in fact not been done.
This bozo of a mechanic I used put in autolite spark
plugs which are non platinum tipped. Didnt replace the fuel
filter or air filter, pvc's and didn't tighten up my timing belt tensioner. I am SOOOOOO PISSED!!! I paid that idiot quite a bit of money and he didn't do half the work. Anyways, I have the receipts along with all the old parts that were taken out on the work he supposedly did and I'm taking him to court.

On a lighter note.....
The guys at Z1 motorsports are great!!!! I can't believe
how knowledgeable and quick they are.. they fixed me right up. Had my tensioner tightened up, replaced those walmart plugs with NGK's, replaced the air filters, pcv's, went ahead and put me in a new altenator and front oil seal while they were at it... Pricing was unbelieveable and the staff was great! Russell, John, Todd and Reuben you guys are great!!!
Thanks a million for getting me all squared away.

As far as the shop in fayetteville,nc that did me wrong, I truly want to go burn his shop down with him in it but I am gonna do it legit and take'em to court. Should be an open and shut case especially since I have all the receipts and old parts to prove the work wasn't done.
