My 03 with all the available pkg's has had a host of issues. None have really been mechanical. Almost all have been software problems. Gear Box Malfuntion warning, Imobillizer Failure warning, Anti-Theft System warning, Radio popping, passenger door lock quit along with the window. I have a infrequent knocking that comes from the right front of the car only when the car is cold and only for the first mile or so after starting up the car.. but it seems to have gone away.. for now. I have leather on the drivers seat that is sort of wearing out at 2700 miles!I had the drive off locking feature added and it made all of the locks do weird things ie had to push the trunk release twice to open instead of once.. go figure. Anyway I'v spent WAY too much time at the dealers for a new car. I'm hoping that this last round of TECH II sessions has cured everything.. I hope. The problem as told to me by the dealer is that the computers are all inter linked one problem in one sub system can cause errors else where. My bottom line.. if I had to do it over knowing what I now know I would with out a doubt NOT buy a 03 93ss I would have bought the Infinity G35 that was my other choice. Yes it was more $$ a month but the lack of BS and wasted time would have easily covered it.. Did I mention the car I bought had a hood that was repainted prior to me taking delivery? The paint wasn't done right so after several visits I made the dealer swap it with a factory painted hood... and I'm sure I've missed something....
