I'm all for PPIs but NOT from dealerships.........

-I was charged $350 w/o a compression test. They told me, "if you want a compression test the car isn't worth it",what type of answer is that?

-They didn't detect that my tires are getting low on tread(Even Pedros and Indy shops go that far into detail)

Just find a good indy shop. Good Luck!

I don't want to scare you with this but it seems as if the 3.2L engine is prone to IMS failures. They normally occur before 40k. Just something to consider if you aren't getting a warranty.
