I was. You have to get them to replicate the problem to proceed further. Mention long cranking as well. My sa, who I've been with for the past 15 years, said they need to hear long crank at startup and be able to replicate the problem based on the owners instructions to investigate without any codes. Easiest way to do it is have them drive for a solid 20 minutes, park, and start the car up in 10 minutes. The car should bog hard on start up. Try it out for yourself so you can replicate it for them if need be.

Good luck!
