You will not be able to find that unless you're in Japan.

Its a *Japan's Special* product called the "MegaMac"

When I was walking around in Tokyo this past August I passby this McDonaldos . then I was like hmm lemme see what they sell in Japan compare to the US. then I saw this thing called "MegaMac" I was like wtf is MegaMac ?

I got 1 and I was like holyshit. Thats like 2 times the size of the BigMac. wtf ?

I ate 1/2 and gave the other to my gf.

do you mean that 2nd doesn't engage/lock in all the way and thus grinds gears?

19 and u're on your 3rd car ? Either you're a hard working teen, or you're one of those *daddy I want that* kind of person.

Use the warranty like swoope mention.

i think it is "just" the motor. I went in for the Oil pan TSB thinking it would be covered under the motor extension and they said it was not because it was not the motor itself. And anything bolted to it did not get covered. I thought that was pretty lame.

Read the Recall Extension Letter posted elsewhere on this site. It spells out everything covered. I just got my motor mounts replaced, no questions asked, under the extension as it specifies them as part of the powertrain. I have 56K on my 8 so I am 6K past the original warranty. I don't know if the oil pan was listed, but you could check.
