    Ultimate Rust / Undercarriage Thread

    Not risky at all. Im not 100% but I believe the 90K service is a couple thousand. Negotiate for a drop in price and do it yourself, or negotiate them to have it done. Thats what I did, wanted the water pump and timing belt changed as the final part of the deal, after i got the price down and...

    Hmmm, sounds like the power steering pump got repaired, hopefully they didn't get the engine too hot with the cracked T.
