Suspension expert said my 245/35/20 BFGoodrich g-force A/S tires are just loud. No bearing noise or any suspension problems. Gave me an alignment instead and corrected the severe rear toe-in. That saves me a good chunk of change and a bunch of trouble.
Drain and fill power steering fluid. I had no idea that my 08 sedan had active power steering as in it is light at low speed and around 35 mph it tightens up nicely. I followed motorvate diy.

If you've not changed your PS fluid in a really, really long time, you might be surprised to feel your steering is tighter than before.
Last year I swapped the PS fluid, which was the original from 2011. My thinking was with such low miles... (igit) Anyway, lesson learned and happy to do so.
That's an odd thing, almost looks like a Ferrari emblem on your fender.

Bought the car in Oct of 18 with 90k. Just got around to PS. Last to do is coolant. The PS fluid may be the original which is scary. There were tiny specs of brass. Hope that's not indicative of a bigger issue. But man the PS feels good.

I bet that was original PS fluid. Wow. Sure is a nice upgrade, huh? Awesome when good stuff happens unintentionally.
I found out about this OBD Fusion app today and holy crap its great. I can read my TPMS codes and even exact PSI! saved me a trip to the tire shop. I can even reset the TPMS light. I turned it off and drove around for 20 minutes and it hasn't come back on yet, im sure it will though.
Its really dumb that nissan gave us no way to view PSI or which tire is low when clearly the car has this info.

Thats really interesting ...do you think it can be used to program a set of TPMSs? ..instead of doing the paperclip and drive around thing?....that would be convenient for ppl who switch to Winters wheels every year

Heck yeah. If I had an app that let me sync up TPMS twice a year... that would make me very happy.
