Now need advice on two issues. 1st, my air shocks loose 3 to 5lbs of air per week and I need to know if this is normal because I feel like my dealer might be not takeing it serious. 2nd, at my 1000mi service, the dealer over filled my oil by at least 1/2 qt causing an oil leak they have fixed. (retaped two pluges behind oil filter and tighted oil cooler hose ) I'm concerned about other damage showing up in the future to gaskets and bearing due to the increased pressure and possible oil foaming causing poor lubrication. Dealer said oil could only be over filled by 2ounces and the 103 engine has a pressure release valve. This doen't add up because of how much oil I took took out to leave at full mark and the presure oviously causeing the leak. I drove about 300mi after service before finding oil was overfilled.(i'll check oil emmidiately after service from now on) CAN ANY WRENCH TURNERS GIVE ME SOME INSIGHT !!!!
