Ranting!!!!

[kooltechie]

had my car chipped at DTM AutoHaus a month ago by some dumb ass idiot who applied MT6 file to my Tip car.
and he told me the security code must be 4 digit number even though APR manual says it can be 1 through 4 digits, forcing me to come up with some unuseful number.
in addition to his lack of knowledge and skills, he also had unprofessional attitude toward a customer's car, leaving shoe marks on the door trim, slamming the door in front of the customer, and messing with the seat position and radio setting....FCUK!

based on my experience with the idiot, I wondered if he had applied the right transmission file, so I asked Mike @ APR to look up my burn record.
Mike @ APR was nice enough to check my record and found out that my car had been chipped with a wrong transmission file (fcukin' idiot!), so I initially started communicating with Mikey @ DTM through PM's, but that didn't help much.
at first he sounded like he'd help, but haven't heard from him for more than a week.
then I called the shop and made an appointment with some other guy 2 days ago for 11 am today, but the guy showed up 40 min late, not even aware of the appointment.
the story gets worse....APR website was down so I'd have to visit their shop again later.
left my work at 10:30 am and got back to work at 12:20 pm, so I basically wasted almost 2 friggin' hours for nothing, all because of some fcukin' moron who initially chipped my car.

I don't know if they're capable of doing anything right at the first time.
if anyone wants to chip their cars, stay the FCUK away from DTM AutoHaus. period.

damn that sucks man

[WhippeD]

bring it to us
Genesis Autosport 877-436-7778 call us so we can set up an appointment.
we're in rancho cucamonga right off the 210.

we'll fix that problem for you, the re-flash is free but since you didn't get the chip from us we'd have to charge you $37.50/ half our labor.

wish I could turn back time and go to Genesis!
I bought all 4 programs with options when APR had the moving sale a month ago.
thought about getting my money back and go to another shop, i.e. Genesis, but I can't get the same deal anymore....if there's a way to get the same deal else where, I'd have DTM refund me in a heart beat!

[WhippeD]

that's ok though.
but like i said if you still need it fixed just hit us up we'll be happy to help.

to genesis they are great people over there. It is always the first place I think to take my car and even refer others there.

They helped me go from soccer mom to big daddy in less than 3 hours

[kooltechie]

only if they (Genesis) were closer to Pasadena area, I would've visited them in the first place.
maybe I should consider moving to Rancho Cucamonga! :)

lol it's not that bad, what 30 minute drive?

[kooltechie]

it's 35 miles from Pasadena, but 210 becomes a parking lot in the morning and afternoon.
it usually takes 30-40 minutes to drive from Lake to Huntington Dr. on 210 (my commute), so it'll most likely take more than an hour to drive from Pasadena to Genesis.

[VZWalex]

I drive from the 710 and 105 all the way to rancho and its only like 35 mins or so. Worth the drive. Genesis Crew is very Good peeps.

U should its one of the fastest growing cities in the nation. Not to mention Genesis is a big . Tho Pasadena is nice, its completely overpriced.

Damn, what a dumb ass...That sucks man...

[kooltechie]

learn from my experience....stay away from them and go to a well reputed shop like Genesis.
btw, have you chipped your car yet, Anthony?

[M Style S]

Will do. No, I havent. Im waiting to get all my other bolt ons before i go ahead and flash my car. I just got my tail light overlays today, and im trying to figure out where i can take it to get installed or if anyone around here knows how to DIY. Its too risky to mess up.

I see....but you can always add more stuff later (i.e. fuel pump, exhaust, etc) and get reflashed - if I'm not mistaken, reflashing from stage 1 to stage 2 is free.
I'll most likely have the fuel pump installed in the near future.
I know you'll love driving a whole lot more than now once you chip your car even without any mods

[M Style S]

I bet... I will get it sooner or later. I want to get my car to not sound so much like an inline-4 first. Hahahah

[A4Shizl]

Fuck Genesis, thats a pice of shit shop... LOL...

I kid, I kid...

Rez and the boys know excatly how I feel about them... These guys rock.... Been hommies with them before the shop opened and they were just as chill then. Take your car there, hell 1 hr. on freeway is still less than two hrs. for a wrong file and your car still not working properly...

Genesis FTW...

[vwong]

I would also give Genesis a . I had my car chipped there as well. Rez and his guys there are awesome people.

[kooltechie]

should've driven to Rancho Cucamonga in the first place....damn it!

had similar experience with DTM, they told me the chipping dude only comes in on certain days during certain hours, and he knew zilch about my car, but Mikey is kool, was it the chubby white guy?? he just got trained, or was it ryan the dark colored skinny dude???
