Anyone know what the lead times have been like for these lines? The dealer ordered my parts over a week ago and nothing...I hope this isn't like my RS where parts are back ordered for months...sheesh....

Where did you take your car for the recall work. I'm probably going to just do mine myself. I really don't want anyone to touch my car. I would be sick if they mess it up. I'm even weird about how the doors get opened and closed....EDIT: I jacked the car up and opened my filter door. There was a small oil droplet at the bottom of the area where the line goes into the engine. Also a small wet spot on the inside of the access door. Nothing like what some of you guys experienced. Wondering if this was just from the install?....or if it's actually leaking? I'll continue to monitor for now.
EDIT: checked the lines after a few days of driving...all quite on the western front.

Going through it right now myself. I wasn't asked to have a pre-inspection, Once they verified my VIN and the recall attached parts were ordered.Called to schedule my recall service this morning. They said I would have to bring the vehicle in first for inspection before they can order the parts... Does this seem correct? Or do certain dealerships operate differently? Not happy because now I have to make two trips.
No it is not correct. There are a lot of dealerships that are doing this wrong. They are to be replaced no matter what they look like per the recall. It is amazing that they can't figure this out.Called to schedule my recall service this morning. They said I would have to bring the vehicle in first for inspection before they can order the parts...

I had to do the same thing. Its no big deal just do it. It will give you a chance to let your service adviser know how particular your are going to be and that you will check to make sure the recall is done properly.Going through it right now myself.

They are supposed to inspect it first to see if it is leaking. Those that are actually leaking get expedited shipping and repair. Those not leaking are supposed to wait until the end of the recall. A good dealer will "take care of you" and get the parts quickly.Called to schedule my recall service this morning.

They only have to remove the splitter and the belly pan. So it shouldn't be a problem with your wrap.Getting my done on Friday. They had the parts, well, what's left.
Question? if you have an Expel wrap, is their a risk of damage to the wrap? I have my entire front end, bumper, hood, and fenders wrapped. Just worried that I will have loose pieces of Expel dangling in the wind afterwards.
Thank you.
