lol So I have no luck with cars aside from the S2000. So I did the oil change for the first time yesterday and noticed a grease spray on the driver side. Turns out the boot for the CV shaft ruptured and sprayed. Looks like a new boot/CV shaft going in. May just do the wheel bearing while in the process. Side note: I really need to get a compressor and impact gun with sockets. Life would be so much easier working on cars. lol ---

How great it would be to get a deal on doing the CV shaft if they had to replace the control arms. haha. I know I need to take that too them to get the recall looked at thought, it wasn’t done by the previous owner. Thanks for the heads up. ---

Its not a guarantee repair. They have to be able to make a hole with a punch and hammer for it to be warrantied. ---

Right, it was that or they spray it with a rustproofing agent to help prevent it.
