wicked vibration 3:persistence pays off

looks like i'm not crazy and can actually tell when something is wrong with my car.

svc mgr from walter's called today to inform me that at least 3 of the tires tested poorly. he has a call into atlanta and it looks like i will be getting 3, if not an entire set, of new tires later this week.

had i just driven off the lot yesterday with this problem who knows what would have happened to the tires, car, me! one thing i know for sure is that had the problem persisted for another 5k or 10k miles and then manifested as an obvious problem seen by the dealer - these tires would have been replaced at my expense!

lesson here - whether its your beautiful sports car or a loved one - if you know something is wrong and the expert shrugs you off - perserve brothers (and sisters)! porsche mechanics and doctors alike miss things! (MNBoxster and me excluded of course )
