80,000 Mile Service
Decided to take the X in for indy service to have the valve cover gaskets replaced (right one was leaking oil), plug change, and oil change. A few additional parts were also replaced (o rings, etc) to a cost of $1300. Not too bad.

Dealer wanted $900 for the right valve cover and timing gasket.

Actual labor charged on valve cover gaskets (both) was $500.

X feels like it pulls SO much better. However, being that I normally drive my work 4cyl Equinox, anything feels better.
