[QUOTE="Mdub707, post: 460874, member: 107"] Well this is a first.... I called back, and the service writer asked if I just wanted to talk to the technician working on it... uh... hell yeah! I've never in all of my frustrating years of warranty work (no longer under warranty!) have ever been asked if I want to talk to the tech! Awesome. So I explain what happened to him and he said well I need to pull the starter off to check out the flex plate. I said fine, do that, check it out, bench test the starter and let me know, I just didn't want them throwing in a $500 starter for no reason. So... it sounds like the tech has some what of a clue, but the service writer is an idiot. Which seems typical in my experience. However, I've never had them hand the phone to the tech before! Nice. So... if our assumptions are right, and the flex plate is busted... what do I replace it with? Another stocker? A billet unit? Currently running Doug's race tune with stock lock up. The most I can ever see doing with this truck is 175/75's and a 64mm charger or something like an MTW stage 3 etc... nothing too crazy. Is a billet unit needed? Would it hurt anything to have it if it's not really needed? Thoughts? Thanks for the input guys, helps keep me sane. [/QUOTE]
