[s-cars] FW: [urq] Still without exhaust

[Pasqualoni, James E]

All,
 
Just wanted to relay some problems that a ur-quattro owner is having with a
certain exhaust manufacturer with whom some of you might be familiar.  Any
BTDT WRT this manufacturer would be most appreciated.
 
Thanks,
Jim

I have them somewhere. Basically I called Stebro Oct 6 and was told they had
one in stock and I'd receive it in 10 to 12 days. When it didn't show up I
called. I was told it was held up in customs but when I got a tracking
number for it UPS clearly showed it wasn't even picked up from Stebro until
Nov. 5. I consider that lying. On Nov 14th I received the center section.
When I called again about the rear section, Dan said it was shipped in two
pieces and he said he'd get me the second tracking number. I never got the
second tracking number or the rear section of the system.

It would be interesting to find out.  Do you still have some of the other
postings you sent out earlier?  If not, do you remember when you sent them,
as I can search the archives?
 
Thx.

Sure, no problem. I wonder if anyone else has had an issue or if I'm the
only one.
