just wondering,, sorry for the ignorance. cant they at least just find out the problem for the engine whine? and same for the windshield, just so you know what's causing it. alignment you would have to pay for at the dealership, but they wouldnt do it?

Of course, they're blaming my mods for the whine. I had already told them that the whine existed PRIOR to my mods. It fell on deaf ears. Windshield is a simple matter of looking up the Service Bulletins, which they didn't bother doing. Alignment can't be done b/c my wheels are too big and tire sidewalls too small. I need to find some OEM wheels to put on my car before an alignment can be done and it is on my dime. Speaking of which, two SAs told conflicting prices on the alignment with Active Steering, $199 and $399. They're not getting 5s from me.
