Yes that is the correct p/n.
Not available means you will have to pay counter retail. I have run into this on many occasions.
Or maybe it's actually unavailable. Most of the online ones say unavailable. Should talk to a parts guy to find out the deal with availability. Or buy NL one.

Especially since I need to get the computer configured for cat operation before I install a new cat, do you want to spend some time investigating the current tune and issues or lack thereof? I do only have 30 days of temp plate.
I could drive to your house one evening this week and/or leave the car there for you to play with when you’d like. Let me know if I should plan on dropping off for day(s) with the car trailer or you’d be ok with me trading with your truck or something.

I just need less than an hour with the car as long as the BenzNinja is available. He's been responsive lately. I will ask him to save the calibration and potentially he could even restore it if there was some weird reason to need to.
I can message him with the VIN just to confirm my plan makes sense.

Good enough for me. Based on what I've seen there is no reason he can't handle this task.

Ok - thought you might want to drive it some just ‘cause, possibly before cat install. Let me know what night we should notionally plan on and where you’d like to meet. Only specific other maintenance thing I already know I should do is address the trans fluid worn stuff.
