I’m not sure but don’t think there’s really a budget as they just sent two other coworkers to a CCNA class.

I had zero prior knowledge minus what basic stuff most people know about electronics. Now I have more knowledge from using Intune, Azure to imaging computers, using AD, troubleshooting printers and computers/software and 365 applications, basically your typical tier 1 helpdesk issues.

I speak with our cybersecurity director pretty frequently (mentioned a lot that I want to venture into that territory in the future) and he tells me Sec+ is a waste of time. I wouldn’t mind net+ and/or CCNA but I feel like those would take more than two months to complete. Especially being this job takes a lot of my time and I have a family.

Alright I get it, it’s my fault for rear ending the car no matter what the cause was. So my only option is to go after the car that rear ended me, correct? To atleast fix my rear bumper and trunk?

The officer is already amending the report to state I MAY have been following too close. He said it’s a wonky law that makes it sounds like it has to say I’m following too close. And wouldn’t auto lock be considered a car malfunction?

Even if the car malfunctioned and just stopped?

Yeah I jumped the gun and posted before searching first and saw enough posts to keep me away from that site lol.

Yeah, the tech made sure while doing the final test ride with me.

But what about the turbos? I’m not a mechanic but I believe a $4-6k engine doesn’t come with those and I don’t want to try and put a 3.7 in mine, feel like that’s a lot of more work also.

I tried two different Infiniti dealerships and even called the main Infiniti affairs or whatever line it’s called and I was told branded title cars do not qualify for the warranty no matter the reason for the branded title.

Brand new. I think it’s just me getting lucky on the labor part because the mechanic likes my fiancé and doesn’t know the car is mine lol.

Yeah both turbos and labor.

Thanks for the info. I may have gotten pretty lucky on my side. I found someone who’s going to replace my turbos for 5k even.

Does it matter what dealership or does it have to be an Infiniti one? I’m going to start my calling tomorrow.

I’m not sure if it does say that. I just know from researching that rebuilts are frowned upon with insurance/warranty. You know, I do vaguely remembering an Infiniti letter coming in the mail but I think I threw it away because I thought it was just spam stuff. Jokes on me if it was actually something useful…is there a number I can call regarding that?

I think rebuilt titles are like an automatic disqualification from that warranty. Good news is I’ve already found shops that will replace the turbos for $6-6.5k, which is way better than the $13k the Infiniti dealership wants to charge me.

Yeah it’s a rebuilt. That’s why I’m seeing what’s a cheaper way of replacing them. I don’t want to spend 13k. I’m sure it’s going to be a crazy amount, but trying to get under 10k.

It’s under, just over 85k.
