The final verdict is in.........SERIOUSLY!!!!

I had the 15K service done.......The end result is....The wheels were loose. Seems a little wierd to me, but as long as its fixed....I DON'T GIVE A F*CK. I guess loose wheels could make that noise........An added bonus.....I got my rotors resurfaced

Seems logical to me... I'm assuming you're talking about the lug nuts that weren't tight?

I know someone who had that problem and it was so bad, one of the lugs actually sheared right off!!! After my tires get rotated, I always check about 50-100 miles into the rotation. Definitely a good thing to do.

Glad to hear everything is ok.

Congrats! I guess now you have a quiet ride. No more clunking during braking.

But really, you would think that a good service shop would do its diagnostics instead of dumping initial blame on aftermarket springs.

Let me rephrase this a little better...

I check my lugs ONCE after every rotation about 50-100 miles in just to make sure they're snug.
