Quick
update for today after a diller visit.
First. Got an oil change sample which will be sent to Blackstone. I anticipate them saying the oil will be fine for 10k changes.
Second is in regards to my steering wheel vibration at highway speeds. They said all 4 of my ramz are bent so when I checked for myself I saw that the rears were worse and the fronts are very slight. They want $150 per wheel to straighten so that's $600. These enkei's are only $230 each so now I'm kind of thinking I have 3 options. Pay and get them all straightened, dump the worst ones and buy a couple new ones, or dump them altogether and go for the 18" Pretoria's.
The diller also confirmed what I suspected in regards to my alignment. The independent shop I took it to didn't in fact align the car. They just took my $100 and said I'm within spec and while I am, it's just barely. Of course the diller wants to do the recalibration for $500+ so I'm all
. When I said that he mentioned I'd have to sign a waiver if I got an alignment without calibration.
. I'll call around to other dillers. Do I really want to sign a waiver for something like this?
As far as the creaky struts go, they were unable to replicate it but at least I have it documented now.

If the system is working fine now with it being “just” in spec, the system will work fine when it’s balls on in spec.
Unless they crank it so far out of spec, go drive it 20-30 miles until it throws a fault, then align it back to spec.
If the calibration is out, it’s going to throw an ACC fault.
I work Saturday 2/16. I can do your alignment for $150 (we usually charge $279).
