2nd oil change: realized stealership messed up air pressure

Windex_ · 06-04-2010, 08:39 PM

I lost a drag race in my lexus for $500 because the dealer put my tires at 42 pounds when I brought it in for a TSIB. I drove them on 19.5

I spun till 3rd gear </3

Rule #1 if it isn't warranty related don't go to dealership for service. There are a few exceptions for good dealer service depts. but i prefer dyi.

I would also check and make sure you don't have any missing bolts for the engine cover. …………..my stealership misplaced 3 when they changed my oil……….that was the last time I went.

Have you ever check the tire pressure after you picked up the car when you first buy the car? From the factory, the tire pressure is at around 42psi.
