Timing belt tensioner RECALL...

hey guys,

for those interested; took my car in for a routine check-up at the dealer and the dealer performed a timing belt tensioner (recall).

i have noticed smoother shifting at lower rpm. but, i question the loss of hp and torque.
she feels the same just alot smoother and quieter....

anyways, just wanted people to know.....can't give you guys more specifics cause i don't drive the tl-s as much as the wifey.

Smoother shifting dosn't have anything to do with a timing belt tensioner.

my point was to address the recall issue for those that don't know about it. could be psychological but the car feels smoother and quieter....anyways, thanks for the feedbacks.
