Well said, he's just a little drama queen. I have a Eurocharged tune, car runs perfect no problems, know many people running EC tune without issues. Their is always 3 sides to a story, and quite frankly full throttle seems to be exaggerating things more than what it is.

EC fixed his ripped seat, fixed the motor. He failed to mention a transport company picked up his car who probably damaged the front lip, rims etc. I read a reply by Jake I believe on *********...

Boys at EC including Mike, Jerry, Jake have always been helpful and honest. This full throttle guy just needs to stop crying and making himself look like a goof.

Quote: Holy hell am I getting sick of these drama posts! Like there is a bunch of under entertained gossip girls here.

Fact 1. The Motor was not blown do to tune, but mechanical failure from P/V contact due to botched cam install of a third party installer. EC fully accepted this responsibility, and Motor was replaced by EC fully. This is not a secret of any kind, and Jake openly tells people about the situation. I am not sure what the $3000 was for ( maybe shipping and labour?) but it is dishonest to state that EC did not accept responsibility and covered a huge cost to rectify their mistake.

Fact 2: The owner of the car seemed satisfied enough with the replacement motor making 500+whp to send it back for more performance work several months later. If he was so pissed about the blown motor or the cost, why did he incur more cost for more gains with the same company he was supposedly so dissatisfied with? Somthing doesn't add up.

Fact 3: The problems the owner has with EC right now seem to mostly due with condition of the car and nothing to do mechanical/tuning work performed by EC or suppliers at this time. We are talking about a $60 dollar fog light, and $300ish for a paint correction. Debries in the trunk? Shut up and get a vacuume. Wheel refinishing? How the fawk is that their problem? Unless the wheels were curbed or bent from their driving, I suggest you call the wheel manufacture and understand why the finish simply fell apart. You sent the car to EC for Heads and cooling upgrades, not for a concourse detail.

-Starting a thread talking about a blown motor from last year( which you are previously satisfied with the resolution), when you issue has to do with detailing is a punk *** move, and only meant to casue drama. While the chicken heads around here eat this **** up, people should clearly seperate that the real problem at hand is the condition of the car, that may or may not have been cause by EC at all.

Fact 4: I say this time and time again, the only person responsible for damage from tuning of the car is the person who wanted the work done. If you want your car to be reliable as stock, leave it stock! Tuning always carries with it increase risk of damage to your car, and if you can't accept that fundamental idea, then leave it all alone.

I am not saying EC did nothing here, but getting pissly and staring a huge flame ware on multiple forums because you didn't like the answer you got on a text message from some people dealing with person issues over what in reality is less than $500 is just uncalled for. I hope you can get this all sorted out, but it would be good to seperat fact from fiction if you want help rectifying the problem.


You may now return to your regularly scheduled douche baggery...
Nice!

1. Probably the OE Tuned portion.

2. Pair that with the track record of many of us getting random PMs after indicating our interest in getting tuned by Eurocharged *warning us* and telling us to go with OE Tuned

3. Pair that with the current PMs being tossed around...


...it just sounds like the same ****, different day, whether you wanted to play a part in it or not.

I have the OE tune.....what of it?

2. Pair that with the track record of many of us getting random PMs after indicating our interest in getting tuned by Eurocharged *warning us* and telling us to go with OE Tuned

You wanna stay with Eurocharged, go for it. You wanna go with OE tuning, go for it, makes no difference to me which tune you get.

3. Pair that with the current PMs being tossed around...

PM's about what exactly?

As I thought from the beginning no dice, Eurcharged and LET = TROUBLE! The numbers are nice but canned tunes are always asking for trouble, ALWAYS! I have walked this path in a TBSS and it was an awful experience, spun rod bearing and all (12,000 mile truck). Also why I will not heavily moddify my AMG.

This guy realizes there are shop "fanboys" who will take a shops back regardless of the truth being spoken. I have been one and realized there are 0 shops worth sticking up for. Forums block user because the user wants to explain how a shop ruined the car but the vendors complain and the users post is removed. Thank you for one person putting up some truth. The only way this guy can get any traction in his resolve is by speaking it on forums but if the forum is supported by the vendor his voice will never be heard cause forums love CPM vendor money!!! Vendors can lose lots of money with negative comments on car forums, they do there best to avoid it as it can easily make or break them.

I feel for you man. Let your voice be heard!! I know there are others out there, but forums and moderators block the content cause they do not wanna lose vendor revenue.

If he has mods or miles on his car, it is irrelevant he gave them a strong working car and they put on "whatever" and claim its fine and safe. It is obviously not, let the SHOP BURN!!! Companies like Renntech and Kleeman have spent lots of time and development to insure catostophic failures like this dont occur, which is why they charge top dollar. I am glad i didnt bite on the eurocharged hype as I know of others in similar positions.

If I told you how a local BIG NAME Chicago/LA shop (They worked together on this project) ruined the brake system on my 20k mile 08 E63 would you be shocked. The whole braking system including ABS pump had to be replaced. It was a simple job and sadly the people running these indy shops, just do not have enough knowledge/experience!

They might be good at certain things but they do not have the knowledge of all, especially in these high end cars. Mercedes and AMG spend 100s of Millions in research and development and Eurocharged was able to out think them in sweet 1 million shop set up(If that, they didnt have a shop in IL)??? NO WAY!!!! If so Mercedes should outsource.

As for the car having 60k or 70k and that being an issue getting a Eurocharged Tune, I wonder how many of these owners on this mbworld forum buying 03,04,05,06.... E55s are warned of this situation. So basically emoving says "I was told your car had north of 60k and my point with that is when you tune a car as you have and it has that many miles on it, $#@! happens."

All you newer E55 owners you have been warned over 50k miles dont get a tune from Eurocharged "**** HAPPENS."

As for the guy continuning to go back to Jerry and Eurcharged, I am sure Jerry gave him some very good pricing on the work to help quiet his noise and the guy said "why not?" He had a goal in mind and wanted to get there.

As for the seat damage I may side with the fact of the miles but none of the rest of the damage. I believe the shop has done wrong. Eurocharged ran out of Illinois and the Chicagoland area (LAWSUIT pending maybe, legal issues arising?!?!?! Who knows....). It also worked out well for Jerry that he had a family emergency, considering I had a shop owner tell me the same sh**!

Please these guys are crooks like all of these shops except for Kleeman and Renntech none can truely be trusted. I feel for the guy I have been on the same side of the issue. Also when I first joined this forum members said I didnt own my car and this that and the other. They have now silenced themselves. People on this forum never want to be wrong.

Oh no...I'm doomed!

Seriously... EVERYONE screws up every once in a while. Even Renntech and Kleeman. Heck, even Mercedes Benz screws up ( how many recalls and TSBs do our cars have? ). It's human to screw up. Customer service is what I care mostly about and Eurocharged helped me big time even when **I** screwed up. What can I say...it happens.

Couldn't agree with you more! Eurocharged are an extremely helpful group of people! Always willing to stick their neck out!

Just the other day they were sending me a tuning cable up to my house, it got lost in the mail, and they sent another one (for free) the day after the cable went missing!
