lol yeah I did check all the small stuff first, even put it in 4x4 just in case. I was desperate, it was hot as hell yesterday on side of road but thankfully only took 30 minutes for flat bed tow to show up. I printed out alot of suggestions others had for their problems to give to dealership, called them up and asked them what they checked in the diagnostics and rattled off a couple things and they werelikes YES we check all those things during a diagnostics, like I was insulting them for asking lol, oh well if I'm paying then I'm gonna not just ask but request it be done. Just very frustrating this is my third time in a rental due to VX problems, as much as I love it, if this turns out to be another major issue within a 16 month time span, it's gonnabe time for a trade in to something alot more reliable than this particular VX.
