    At least I know I'm not alone . . .

    Thanks for the response, Chongo. I've read a number of your posts, and have found them very helpful, particularly with regard to The Amigos. A quick question for you: do you think the dealer's trying to cover a boat payment with the push for the valve job, or might there be something to this? It...

    At least I know I'm not alone . . .

    Obd2 Also, the ABS light is not on, kinda interesting given the code is an ABS fault. The ABS light comes on at start up and clears, then comes back and stays until 5-10 mph, just like it should. Think I'll go to Autozone first and clear it, see if it come back. Hello...

    Death Rattle?

    Wheel movement You don't have to hit a very big bump. Something small will do the trick and then it will shake the steering wheel out of your hand until you slow down. I can even hang out the window and see the tires oscilating. Wheel bearings seemed good today when checked...
