just fixed: driver side thigh extender actuator, vacuum pump replaced due to excessive oil leak. Funny thing is, I brought my car in at 63K for service having never noticed an oil leak, and my SA told me that something is probably leaking, so he'll state that customer notices an oil leak on the floor, and sure enough they found the vacuum pump. SA said that's quite normal for our cars to leak here and there. every time i go now while i'm under CPO I'll probably say I see an oil leak so they can check what's going under there.
Took mine to the shop yesterday, bought it 2 weeks ago from a private party, and found out i had CPO warranty, till april 2013!
I really did get an amazing deal on my car.

Under CPO I had my steering angle sensor (SZL) fixed.
Also the Passenter Seat Occupancy matt (OC3) - passenger restraint system malfunction
Engine thermosatat: My SA was awesome on this. I was getting the passenger restraint system malfunction message. So I started playing around with INPA and found the 93C3 code which points to the OC3 matt failing. Anyway, once in awhile I get the error code for the thermostat. (sorry I forgot the code). I never saw a CEL on the cluster.
Anyway, I took my car to the dealer mainly for the OC3 matt and incidentally told my SA about the thermostat error. He asked me if I got a CEL. I said no. He asked me again "Are you sure you did not NOTICE the CEL?. I said "mmm....no?". Then he says "So you are getting intermittent CEL on the cluster correct?"...Finally I saw his point and I said yes. So he puts down intermittent CEL and makes a note to check the thermostat.
Moral of the story. INPA rocks! Not to mention a great SA.
