Yes, run 93 and only 93. Our vehicles (including the 2.4 t and 2.5 t) are tuned for it. Your cost per mile will be LOWER running higher octane gas as you will get better MPG.

I wouldn't use that standard RGT - the angle gear could be damaged by having different sized tires on the wheels. You certainly don't want to have to deal with a blown angle gear.

Certainly NOT a myth. I have seen a couple S60s with HUGE dents in the hood (as in baseball sized).
Our hoods are aluminum and not that much stronger than a beer can.



Agree with all this,...

IT does sound like those problems are legit issues, they are VERY common R problems. The prices don't sound too far off... The leak doesn't show up on the ground, would just show on the seal.

BULL **** - Complimentary service is mated to the VIN - this is not warranty service which would need to be transfered- they are double dipping. Take it to a different dealer.

i would not wait on the spring seats - they fail and your strut can go right through your hood. Because you will be in there you might as well do the struts at the same time.
