UPDATE:
Found the source of one gremlin this morning... One of the techs left behind a 12mm ratcheting wrench in the driver's front bumper/fender liner. Discovered it while examining some unhappy tie rod ends (brand new 555s) which will be replaced under warranty. Pretty funny to crawl under...
Thank you for your reply. No, the paint mark did not indicate any movement, so they went back and put another uggah duggah to the bolts. Not sure if they added the Loctite, or not. Worth a call to them to double check. I s'pose if/when (I tend to be a cynic) it happens again, I may have them...

Hawaii is great. If you have the opportunity, GO for sure. Oahu can be a little like any big city, but there are plenty of places to get away and see what island life is really like. North Shore/Haleiwa is a great spot to check out and the beaches there are world-class!
I miss living on the Big...
Ah, ok. Different island, so likely no 6* of separation... Unless you know the Alcos family. My vote for your 200 hours PTO is Oz, in any case! Plenty of time in your bank to rub elbows and learn some Aussie slang.
But, hopeful that this SAS 'thing' (it's my first) might still happen!
Be well!
