He said to wait a couple of month's and sure as shooting, they need to be done now. All the rest of the stuff is really not that bad so I am having it all done at once.

Make sure the upper timing cover gaskets and all associated o-rings are replaced too when the valve covers are removed.

Pads and sensors all round. Investigating tyre options (less harsh alternatives to 20" Bridgestones).

Spent 4 hours installing Meyle camber adjustable upper control arms in the front to gain more negative camber.

The genuine set is a fixed/non adjustable at .5 negative and about $300ea. I ordered mine off ebay with these Meyle part #s
3160500033HD
3160500034HD

The power steering was seeping a bit from the opening so I put on a new o-ring.

Also installed the summer wheels/tires.

what windshield do you have, the coated one? That probably reduces or blocks the GPS reception. Try it outside for a moment and see what happens.
