Car at the dealer..

So I brought my TSX into the dealer to get some of the rattles taken care of... hopefully i don't have to go back ..

anyways... i got a 1.7 for a loaner... which I have to say is a pretty crappy car... but it is quieter over bumps then my TSX.... I dunno if its because the 1.7 I got only had 300 km on it or what..

one other thing that happened which i find really weird is that I parked the 1.7 in my driveway and went inside.. about 3 hours later I hear the alarm going off.. thinking to myself wtf is going on... go outside.. and nothing happened to the car whatsoever just that the alarm decided to go off by itself... really weird for a brand new car..

oh well.. hopefully get my TSX back today or tomorrow so I can get rid of this POS...

It's probably because the suspension is softer.
