i had that for over 6 months now and its allllllllll good, first i had just one and it came back every 500-1000 miles just reset and it was good for a month or so, but then i heard about doing two of them and like i said 6 months++ and no problems. and hope it stays that way.

yup you gotta call and complain to still and they will send them to you. i think they should already include it with the hfc. but just another way they are trying to cut back, but the stillen one still caused a ses light for my car. so i found this way that works.
