]By all means, take it to a professional ] mechanic and have it looked at. I'd start with ] an independant mechanic and go to the dealer ] only if really needed (long story). Something ] sounds amiss and should be looked into. ] Could be something out of balance in the ] engine or something about to fail and cost you ] big bucks. Better to get it checked early. ] Peace of mind is a wonderful thing even if it ] costs a little...
]My engine and exhaust get hot - hotter than ] the old 4-banger I used to have, but nothing ] that I would consider excessive. Cats do get ] hot when working normally though if the ] engine is missing on a cylinder or running rich, ] they will get much hotter. You should get a ] SES (check engine) light under those ] conditions which you did not mention getting.
That's the thing, even though I feel like there is something wrong I do not have any warning lights, and my Temp gauge seems normal. Maybe I am just a little paranoid because my warranty runs out in another month! That is a great reason to get it checked out right?
What do you think about Extended Warranty's are they really worth the money? Do you think I should get one or just take my chances?
Thanks again, for all the help!!
