Thanks for the sentiments, Anita. I just really don't understand how a problem like this could be happening at only 30k miles....

I am really hoping it isn't something serious/ultra-expensive. I really love my VX and I want to keeping loving it for several years.

Depending on how things go tommorow (I'm gonna buy a scan tool I think), I may have it towed to a mechanic on Monday to give my VX a whole check up, tune up and 30k maintenance, which will probably blow through most of my next paycheck, further delaying my new tires and rims (which are suddenly not on my mind anymore).

Im sure the knowledgable members will chime in here.
