If I ruled the world automakers would have to make it easier to work on their vehicles. Not to put out mechanics either, just so you don't need jap hands and a magnifying glass to do anything, especially with cars.

I am an idiot. Turns out the 4wd was on; I must have accidentally hit the button. I was on my way to have it looked at when I happened to glance over and notice that the 4wd was on. Anyways I went ahead and took it and made an appointment to get the right tie rod end replaced as well as the tranny pan dropped, and the oil changed with Royal Purple. Thats right.
