Okay, wishful thinking. My car still pulls to the right. I have no issue with that because it already did that before they did anything to my car.
I will see my MPG‘s on the trip meter was down. This morning doing 70 mph on a 50 mile highway trip with about 95% of that on the highway without any stops it showed 43.7 MPG‘s. Before it would probably show about 47 or 48 MPG’s. Now it was in the high 50s this morning in Florida so that’s considered cold here. It usually isn’t like that. Now if whatever they did made my trip meter closer to the actual miles per gallon it is getting then I will be happy. My trip meter was off by about 4 to 5 miles per gallon. So whenever it shows about 48 miles per gallon I am actually only get about 44, which is right at what I was getting today.
Tomorrow I am going to fill up and and I’ll see how my first tank goes.
For the most part I feel no difference in driving the car except at six gear it feels like I have to press my pedal just a tad bit harder to keep the speed I want. It may be just that I’m not used to it anymore or maybe it did change slightly. Either way it’s not a real issue. I’m actually kind of liking how the car shifts in lower gears now. The car feels a bit more responsive.
After I had gotten into the city I wanted to try sport mode. There was pretty much no traffic so I floored it and the traction control kicked in and started pulling me to the right. I’m using Michelin premier A/S tired that grip the road really good so I’m surprised it actually started to pull me to the right song. I can’t ever recall doing that before. Hopefully it was a one time thing. I guess it really wouldn’t matter anyways because I never use sport mode anyways.
