Every time I read about these TSB's it makes me want to just go in and get it done, even if I don't have the symptoms.

I did that with the high RPM miss. My reasoning is this, just because it's not doing it now doesn't mean it won't become a problem some time down the road, probably 1 mile after the warranty runs out!!

What do you guys/gals think? Am I being over cautious?

We had the chirping sound under the hood, thought it was a belt but the boss lady finally took it to the dealer yesterday afternoon and said "Fix it" -- the service writer called this afternoon, power steering pump was on the verge of failure. Part is on order and will be repaired tomorrow. Hmmmmm. Just over 9,000 miles on the car.

Well I took in my 2004 Pt turbo to the dealers on friday. They were aware of the TSB on the revised power steering hose and have ordered it for me. I will updated when installed to see if it gets rid of the whistle sound. Hope it does?????

Still don't have the Cruiser back, seems the power steering pumps are on National Back Order.
