What did you do to your FX / QX70 today?

So, this is my first post in this thread in over a year (I think), the battery has been dead, waaaaaay beyond jump–able. Plus in case you guys didn't know, I live in Vancouver now, and it didn't go with me.

Anyway, my question is... Since it's been dead for so long, did I lose the TS ECU flash?
 
Whirrrrrr

Shawty got low low low low low low low

Everything turned almost perfectly even which amazes me because I ended up just randomly picking heights and then changing mid way when the rears were too hard to turn as much as I wanted.

Don't know yet. I have the rears set at 6 from hard, and need to double check the fronts. I'm about to shower then go get gas and a haircut so I will know then. I'm too dirty to drive now.
 
Dropped car off to have rear tires flipped because of a little camber wear. Get called that it's done, walk back in 100 degree heat. Pick up car and realize that they ROTATED the tires; as in they just took the rear wheels off and swapped sides. So not only is my problem not fixed, I have to go outside in 100 degree heat tomorrow and rotate the wheels back because the tires are directional. Sometimes I wonder exactly how shops manage to stay open for business. I would have made them fix the problem right then, but they were closing and I have to be somewhere. This is a reputable shop too that I've used a lot in the past. So irritated.

I always explain to the dealer that I need to rotate the tires side to side, and then double check before I leave. So far no issues surprisingly.

Also, took it for a drive and it feels really smooth for some reason at speed. I don't know why because I wouldn't expect it to feel better but whatever.

Seems a bit twitchy at lower speeds over uneven pavement. Also hit a storm drain and rubbed in the front. :at-wits-end:

Everything else looked good, except I noticed the locking collar on one of the rear struts was up about 15-20 threads for some reason, but I tightened everything back down. Also, one of the mounting bolts for my rear sway had fallen out so I tightened all the other ones and need to order one of those.
