ya I asked the same thing on the phone and he said they do not have a QC guy on Saturdays, go figuregood that you have options.
you'd think a dealership could change u joints and test drive it.
is this what you are talking about, kinda looks like they marked it thoughNot sure on our vehicles, but others I've had, there would be match marks on the drive shaft and on the pinion housing or flange and usually when removing the driveshaft you would re-install matching up the marks.
Those look like weights that were tacked on at the factory.is this what you are talking about, kinda looks like they marked it though

so thank you everyone, your concerns/theories all valid.
block combustion tester turned up negative, but was thinking it only leaks when cold so may not be a reliable test for that type of leak.. took about 5-10 seconds in exhaust stream to show positive..So a small leak only when cold may not put enough c02 in the coolant to show..
will test for leakdown tonight and keep watching my coolant level...
was 105 degrees today, on freeway cruising at 80mph my temps hit 204.. might need the radiator side flaps..
No other mark, but there is a fresh scratch mark corresponding on the other side but I think I found the problem or part of the problem WTF!

Amsoil, what did you expect?2 new filters and 3 gal of atf is almost 300$ what a crazy time lol.
oh someone is getting a ration of shit for sure, they treat me well but damedit.. I'd ask for a new replacement drive shift after that nonsense.
I'm pretty sure I smell it in the exhaust.. (unless it's E85 I'm smelling?)not that's interesting, there is one but it's built in and comes out the bottom? clever.
if you want to, you can send an oil a sample off, they can tell if there's coolent in the oil. if it's getting into the cyl, it should be getting past the rings into the oil too, leaving behind whatever it is they look for as coolent. I forget what exactly it is.

The pressure has dropped from 17psi to 15psi in about 15-20 minutes.
