Got a slow leak fixed on my right rear tire at Moncton Rust Check, AUTOPRO & Tire. New valve stem assembly and rim cleaned before reinstalled and torqued. Brakes also visually inspected due to sporadic speaking noise when coming off the brakes. Mechanic used the grinder on the inside of the front rotors to alleviate the issue. Front pads still have lots of life left but I will replace the front rotors/pads within the next year. Front tires are at 4-5/32nds and rears at 5/32nds. Odometer: 79,118 km

Some engine hesitation during mid-high acceleration in the past week led to a P0302 - 2nd cylinder misfire and TCS light turning on combined with rough idle and noticeable loss of power. Brought it to Rust Check, AUTOPRO & Tire in Moncton. Scan test performed, replaced all 4 ignition coils and spark plugs (Autolite OEM equivalent). Also removed K&N engine air filter and replaced it with new OEM engine air filter that came with the car in January. Car now accelerates very smoothly with no misfire and no warning lights. Full synthetic oil change coming next month. Odometer: 75015 km
