My wife and I went to Banff this past weekend for her brother's wedding. Banff is a national park in Alberta, Canada and is located amongst the Rocky Mountains. It was beautiful, but a little rainy. Anyway, I had a couple of mis-adventures with my car while we were there. First, the Camaro is still throwing the false code about the "Fuel Evap" that the dealership was going to re-calibrate the computer for free to get rid of it, until I told them that I was going to replace the ignition control control module myself. Geez, I already had paid them $250.00 just to read the codes and tell me what was wrong. You'd think that would have been enough to warrant a quick re-program for free, but oh well. Anyway, so the SES light is on, and it is annoying me, so I decide to reset it. So, I pull the PCM fuse and wait a bit, then replace it......no dice, still on. So then I think, "Maybe the key has to be turned on when I remove the fuse." Bad idea.....after doing that, when I start it up, it runs rough as crap and the Reduced Engine Power light is on. I freak....I think I screwed up my ignition again. So, I shut it off and wait..."Let the computer reset" I think. I start it up, runs great, but the SES light is still on. WHEW....Oh well.....it's not so annoying now. LOL
Then, yesterday morning we were all packed and headed out, just stopping at the Bride and Groom's hotel to say bye and stuff. I am pulling into a parking spot and just happened to pick the one that a big freaking rock was in front of, just past the curb. I am so used to just letting the nose hang over the cub that I neglect to take into account the stupid rock. So...now I have deep scratches and scrapes along the bottom of the fascia. I am going to try to see if I can get them buffed out. Anyone know by chance how much it should cost if I were to get it re-painted? I feel like such a moron....I had the car all beautiful and Zaino'ed just two weeks ago, and now this. It's just depressing.
