ECS Tunning

[Orangebuggie]

I bought several items from them and they all worked great except one. I bought an MAF from them and the car was running good for about 2 days and after that symptoms came back. After about almost 2 weeks that I had a chance to take it to a mechanic they diagnosed the MAF to be bad. I called ECS Tunning and they said that Electrical parts don't have warranty. Just a little heads up for you guys when you buy these delicate MAF. The car has a stock intake on and it still have these problems and theres no humidity in miami. Really upset with this matter.

That sucks!!!
Completely terrible, I can't believe they would not work with you. 2 days use and then it craps out. I bet the shipping was expensive also.

I'd recommend MJM autohaus. There is alot of other vendors out there besides ecs. I'm not sure what there warranty is on MAFs, but they usually have better prices. Amazingly I live about 1500 miles from MJM but the shipping is cheaper and faster than ECS (about 100 miles away).

Thanks for the "heads-up", I'll be staying away from ECS.

I was happy with their service but the MAF only lasted 2 days . I called and asked for a exchange not even return and the manager denied. Unfortunately we learn from our mistakes. They just lost a good customer. Thanks for the info I will take a look into them.

Good luck in the future. Thanks for sharing.

That's a standard practice of just about any parts store--no warranty on electrical parts--too easy to mess them up if your car has other issues. Some of the big chains operate a little differently though--I think Autozone, for example, would give a 1 year warranty on that--at least they did when I bought a crank position sensor for my truck. ECS really should have offered you something though, maybe another at cost w/ free shipping? Anyway, I've done business with ECS for several years now. Now they're big boys and it seems the personal end of the biz may suffer, however, I am still 99% satisfied with all my ECS dealings and will continue to be a customer.

Manager gave me no offers though . I mean what could have gone wrong in one day to really mess up a MAF? Theres no humidity in miami, intake was removed off the car before new maf, car uses 93 octane, has new OEM filter. If it lasted almost two days then comeon it wasn't in good condition.

I thought that Miami was second only to New Orleans to humidity? I've never been there when it hasn't been.

Mail Order electrical parts NEVER have a warranty... not as far as I've ever seen that is.

Im just warning the people before buying an electrical part from them thats all, don't want them to end up the same way I did. Its just that I didn't read the fine print(tiny hidden letters that screw people over) and should have bought it somewhere else. As far as humidity, none here these days, been very dry.

LOL that goes out the door for today. Its been raining since at least 4am.... Humidity is going to be 100% for awhile now.

Weird on the ECS MAF though. Did you order an OEM one from ECS?

This isn't really a discussion area guys. The user left feedback regarding his purchase/service experience.

Thread is done. Nothing to convince/argue/contest/or compare.

End of thread.
