Mine has the 1,000 mile service listed twice, on the day the car was delivered (with less than 20 miles), and on the day they performed the 5,000 mile service. Which is odd because I never had a 1,000 mile checkup performed. It also says "special order part" for the day I brought it in to have my winter tires (purchased from Tire Rack) mounted on my factory rims.

Didn't know you can check service history! Just checked mine...I like this one....

9201 55068 VEH IS EQUIPT W/ NON-FACTORY

I believe it meant to finish with suspension, or shocks...or whatever. I didn't ask my Advisor to do a alignment and I guess he mis-heard me, and thus the results.

Better be careful with that as it could be possible grounds for future warranty denial

Pocky, could you let us all know what dealership you had that done at. I will try and avoid them in the future. That is the last thing I need on my service history after all those previous entries. Thanks

And the caption is - "Do you really think these pants make my butt look big?"

Yeah, I think the original owner was pretty **** about the little stuff. There's nothing there to be overly concerned about though. It's not like they've done the cam sprocket TSIB twice or anything...
