Yup. Wife hates me and the car now. Gonna be keeping this thing for a while now.
I should be able to get the strut revalved by bilstein for $125 and then sell the pss9s to recoup something

What was the noise? I have a noise coming from the rear that sounds like the spring doesn't have a rubber pad between it and the car kinda like a hollow sound a low speeds with bumps. Higher speeds it doesn't exist because I can't hear it or the car is loaded...not sure.

I'll try taking a video tonight as I bring the car from one shop to another. Guys told me I needed new suspension. Then when coils get there try to tell me it's a 10 hr job - another $1200 labor.
Fuck that. Ripoff artists already got me for $1100 fixing broken struts already. I basically trust no one anymore.
Local Pep Boys which is same price per hour quoted me 4hrs so bringing it there first thing tomorrow morning. Yet again - 4 yrs in a row installs coming down to the wire before leaving for Timmayfest on Thursday AM. I'm heading to muffler shop 7:45am Thursday morning before leaving to get exhaust installed.
Oy vey.
