They replaced the airbag control module and the motor mounts. I went to pick it up yesterday. Before I even removed the parking brake, the airbag light came on.

So needless to say, I left the car with the dealer.

They can't reproduce the problem. (which may be true)

I'm also mad because they won't replace my tpms. I also tried to get them to change my coils, but no luck.

Are there any TSB's about the coil packs.

"DO NOT diagnose ignition coil condition based on “white spots” or “heat marks” which may be found on the bottom of the ignition coil body."

yeah, some people will get tiny little spots and think the coil packs are toast. Not always the case, if there's really bad burn marks and heat bubbles ont he bottom (like I saw on my coil packs) then yeah...they're pretty much done.

Yeah the install went great! I just had one minor problem was when I tapped the wrong wire (it was the correct color but I guess it was before the switch or something because the lights did not turn off). I just tapped into the correct wire and fixed the one I had originally tapped into

Is this something I need to change in my guide?

Jedi, I read that bad motor mounts can cause hard shifting.

Rodger: someone is selling TPMS sensors https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.php?t=119063
If you make that 2nd batch of LED's, you might be able to cover the cost of the TPMS with some of those profits.
