Talking Big Happy Day

So I went into Stevens Creek Acura yesterday to get my Nav and radio code (disconnected the battery while doing my header install) and the service manager walks out immediately and greets me. He quoted me for 120 when the day before another service manager quoted me for 150. He checked out my VIN and found that I had the extended warranty (YAY!!!) so I got my stupid SRS light fixed.

Good riddance of red lights on my dash.

They had to pull out the nav and the radio to check the serial though.

What dshearon is saying is that you can get the serial number of the radio without pulling it out. Many have gotten burned like you just did. Read this thread:

Navi I think can be read while in car.

Print out the thread above and go back to your dealer. Find out why they charged you so much for labor that did not need to be done. Good Luck.

Ouch. Hate to kick you while you're down, but a Search would've definitely worked in your favor. Sorry man, maybe next time.

Or you coulda just posted asking here and you woulda probably got flamed for not searching but you woulda saved some $$$. Im sure that there is a post to every issue, problem, part this car has ever had.
