haha bring it to the dealer for a warranty claim ;p

jp. you'll probably have to have the dealer take the car apart and get the rat out by force. if i were you i'd do something ASAP before it gets into some places and chews up your wires. the bill for fixing that would cost a fortune consider the labor required to take apart the car and replace all damaged parts.

Spray your engine bay with some antirodent spray for the night so it doesnt kill you.

You've got to think like a rat to catch a rat. Now that shouldn't be too hard, should it?

That rat's getting in there for a nice night's sleep. Try blocking any areas it is getting in your garage if you are parked in there.

Hmm..not a funny matter at all. You've gotta find some way to poison and kill him. One day it'll eat through what most likely will be your engine harness and it will NOT be covered under warranty and will be out your ***. You're looking at the thousands to get it fixed..if that's the case. you can't get just pieces of the engine harness, you ahve to replace the whole thing.
