I know, I know do a search.

#1) My warrenty expires in May, should I take it in to the dealer for a check over? Would they actually go over the car looking for things to fix under warrenty or am I just smoking crack? The dealer would be symbolic in la Jolla or possible newport.

#2) I am not the best detailer guy but I can wash, claybar and wax. I have never had a car with starshield? do you claybar and wax & buff over the starshield or just leave it washed??????

TIA

1. Yes do it - Dealers get paid for warranty work so it serves them to find problems.

2. Adam's sells a cleaner for Starshield and it works well. You can wash & wax it also - but no claybar or polish with an abrasive.

Also - before your warranty expires make sure you do not have wear issues with the cams. Do a search for info.

Also Also - any grinding in the transmission?

thanks for the reply, no tranny grinding that I have noticed. I will search on cam wear

Unfortunately, I have not seen a thread on how to do this exactly - maybe someone else has?
