Will I be charged?

I have the platinum extended warranty and my vsc/trac lights went off after I had my inspection done. I'm pretty sure that the inspection reset the yaw sensor values. Do you think the dealer will charge me to reset the computer? I just told them the lights came on while driving.

Don't have a clue - keep us up to date though...
 
thanks rook...

i did the zero point calibration and it cleared the lights... and no need to go to the stealer!

I was also wondering why my mpg has been pretty bad recently. I checked my tire pressure and it was at 44psi! so make sure you check your tire pressure... if its too much or too little you're gonna get bad gas mileage.

No, high tire pressure improves gas mileage. The trade off is harsher ride.

Wouldnt high pressure cause less contact of the tire on the road(make the tire more round than flat), causing a decrease in mpg? the best i could do on the highway was ~19mpg driving at 70mph, i could previously get around 21-22mpg before i overinflated the tires.

If your tires are overinflated, you will have less contact area, that much is correct.

But less contact area = less rolling resistance = higher fuel economy. That why economy cars always have skinny little tires.
