Thank you everyone for the help with my oil control valve. I am celebrating 10 days of idiot light free driving!!
So - had horrific tire (tyre) wear on my rear tires (since replaced). I also saw indication of poor alignment - bad scrubbing on the inside half, UP DOWN UP DOWN went the tire as I rolled it on the inside edge. The good folks at the tire shop then tried to align it, BUT to "elantra" specs not "Elantra Touring" specs. So when I drove out the door, it was noticeable off. It really is a reputable shop and they are owning the issue, and I return at 9:00am tomorrow for a realignment.
My query----can someone provide the front and rear alignment numbers and tolerances for a 2009 Elantra Touring (with the Premium handling 17" low profile tires). I'd love to have them in my hip pocket as a comparison to what they have.
Cheers !
