Thanks, it hasn't dropped any further since then and is still above thr max level (they put in a little extra so I could tell if it dropped). I'm still going in tomorrow to get the hose replaced, I can live with $130 and it is one less thing to worry about
I'm wondering if and when I have to get...
If I have to get the steering rack replaced I was wondering if I should get my front struts replaced at the same time, they are the originals. I'm thinking maybe they would charge less for labor since they have to drop the steering rack
I got the stud takee care of

I can't do the stud myself, I'll let the shop do it next oil change, unless you think it should eb done right away. if they had told me while they were doing the 40 pt inspection I'd have told them to go ahead and do it.
