Services Performed
- Scanned faults and found 1 stored in abs/vsc – steering angle sensor. 7 Faults in TPMS (low pressure and no communication). All faults listed as "history". Cleared faults and test drove, no lights came on and got over 35mph 2x. Found PS front shocks is blown and leaking oil, DS lower ball joint is VERY loose – recommend replacement ASAP. During test drive noticed very loud wheel bearing – sounds like LF but need to verify with stethescope. Scoped all 4 wheel bearing with car running in air – DS front and passenger rear are both very loud, PS rear is noisy but not as bad as other 2. Recommend all 4 be replaced sooner than later.
- Replaced both lower ball joints with new, replaced castle nuts, torqued to spec and installed new cotter pins.
- Replaced front shocks and upper mounts. Installed in vehicle and torqued all fasteners to factory specifications.
- Removed wheel hubs from vehicle and replaced both front wheel bearings with new hub/bearing assemblies. Replaced all 4 bolts on DS due to rust.
- Performed front end alignment. Set camber and toe within factory specifications. Caster had slight split but not too far to be concerned about. PS front toe had over 2* of toe in. Rear toe is slightly out but rear wheel bearings are needed. Recommend wheel bearings and fresh alignment check after install.
