Ludedude... yea, they had a printout that said to replace the spline nuts, regrease and retorque. However... the "replacing" I dont think is mentioned in our TSB list... everything else is tho.

I had this done about 5 months ago and it was great, no noise/squeak. Just today after the rain it came back just as loud on the right rear wheel again.

When I first took it in the tech said there was a bunch of rust buildup and they removed that. Did the tsb thing and now the noise is back.

If this click keeps coming back I am going to get rid of this car as I dont want to spend $100 every several months for a click to go away. Not worth it. Makes me disgusting as the sound will keep coming back. To me thats a piece of shit in my book. Ohh well. I dont even want to drive this car, thats how disgusted I am with it.

THey made you pay to replace that thing after you did it the first time? No way in hell Id pay AGAIN to do something thats already been done. It would have been time to do some negotiating.
