Every Lexus dealer should have a service manager like John at my dealer. Not only is he completely mod friendly and only lets his master tech Paul work on the F cars, his prices are unbeatable. I always here about the "stealership" prices but I got headers installed, alignment and he had PDR company come out and remove a door ding all for $900. Add in a free loaner car and no way could a local shop beat that price.

Josh was the first PPE installed there so Jeevy thought it was unnecessary. Josh got codes a day or two after so Jeevy tapped the module and everything has been smooth since. So yeah check out PPE code thread. Lol it's lengthy!! It's hit and miss and maybe you are one of those that drew short straws. I hope you can get everything fixed and enjoy that power though. Don't sweat the small stuff. Lol I got hit 3 times in 5 months and I'm still smiling

The real problem is the amount of money I'm inventing and the amount of hours my best friend/tech is putting in redo the mapping programs and the several trial and errors when making the mapping programs...

PPE CELs result from bad installation where people arent securing the wires enough and they are getting melted and shorted/grounded
