Did they tell you what codes or what caused it to go into limp mode?- Over boost & s/c rpm speed (tech knew I was modded right away)
- Electronic throttle program error (couldnt sense throttle position)
- ESP steering angle sensor (needed to be reset)
- Battery disconnect
& 1 more I cant remember, so 5 total. Although they didnt void my warranty/ext warranty, clearing the codes was not under warranty as it was due to either a power surge or disconnecting the battery which could make sense as I've noticed some odd behavior at times since I last disconnected it.
All in all, it was only $75 for reseting the codes and my last free maintenance so Im glad its resolved. I just gotta keep the battery plugged in at all times!

took out the whip last night to drive it around and check to see if everything works. car is running great, feels a little stronger & smoother than before. shifts were more crisp too under wot. wound up hit a group of cars and played a little cat & mouse with an e46 m3 & A4 1.8T trying to move ahead of the pack.

, if you know this would happen, you prolly would walk out and say HELLO, wouldn't you? Well, I'd feel weird if tons of TLs meeting a few blocks away from my home.

Actually, I drive a 2003 Hyundai Elantra GT. Silver on the outside, black on the inside. Just like this one:
The whole pinto thing was a joke, cause I ain't going to get much more respect with my Hyundai that I would have with a pinto
Gets me from point A to point B.
If and when my master ... I mean wife lets me upgrade I would strongly consider a TL. Perfect for a technology nerd like me.
