Hello jdmodelt, you are right!

The "urgent package" that I ordered from Pelican on Sunday that was supposed to arrive Tuesday night (so far), has not arrived yet... and yes, I called them Monday early am, and also on Tuesday...

However, last night with the door on the fingers (I am driving tonight to Laguna Seca with my wife) I decided to check the bearings using a thin metal ruler and one side of the bearing (the one with black color seal) was magnetic and the one with the red color seal was not... after a burning the midnight oil (literally, since went to bed at 1:30am) cleared the failure messages again with the Durametric an this morning my car was again running fine!.

Thanks for JFP for mentioning the reason why my ABS/PSM had failed, and also to you for letting me know about checking the magnetic side with a metal strip!

Now I am ready to (safely) go and enjoy Rennsport on my CS instead of my wife's V70... LOL

This place rocks!


Now, all I need is a chiropractor...
