So I received the TCU that I ordered from Ebay and installed if about an hour ago. Works like a charm. Bluetooth works great, was able to pair my phone and every time I turn the car on my phone re-connects automatically.

So considering the TCU I purchased on Ebay (used) was only $59 and the dealer quoted me $1060 ($500 for a new TCU and $560 for labor / programming) I saved $1000. Couldn't be happier right now!

Thanks to everyone who provided their input and feedback on this topic. I really appreciate it!

Well that's good to know! I always try to DIY, whatever it may be. So far I've filled urea, changed cabin air filters, intake air filter, fuel filter, installed my own sound system (that was a pretty big job, all interior had to come out). I let the dealer do the oil changes lol.
