Thanks for the uploads! Very helpful.

Try unplugging the actual abs module. Salty water and the green crusties might have had there way with it. May even be one of the sensors that connect to it. I would continue to unplug things until you find the root cause.

On the journey yo simply move the heat slowly all the way up then all the way down.  Its as simple as that.

I found an online service manual that might help us all.

I have  had that on mine since I bought it.  I can get it to go away for awhile if I spray silicone lube into the control arm bushings.  After a few weeks it returns.

Take a look to see if the under floor storage bins have water under them.

Hank

I have had this problem. I tracked the water to the cowl area some body seams needed resealing them. I also cleaned out the drains under the rocker panel.

Thanks for the update

Were you having problems or noise? What brand parts? Did this solve any issues,  thanks for sharing this with us.

Cut it out with a Sawzall and demo blade. Then replace with a new cam bolt,  cam washer and rear toe link. I did this last spring couldn't get the cam bolt out.

Was curious on the gap tolerance of the rocker. I cant' seem to find any numbers.  

There shouldn't be any play in the roller. The rocker shouldn't move when you try to wiggle it.

Thanks for posting, I had an oil change and my car came out with a loud tapping and I had them rechange the oil because I thought they put in the wrong weight oil and it is still tapping.

Confirm that the correct oil filter was installed.

Check out for play in the rear take links. They cause the rear tires to wear on the inside edges as well.

If you have brake vibrations replace them regardless.

I finally had this U70 recall done! I have a new catalytic converter and the latest software update.  So far it runs much quieter and smoother, the transmission seems to work with the engine better. So far I am happy we had this done.

Hank

Yes on the 2.4L its cluchless. It starts and stops by changing the pump displacement inside the compressor.

Hank

If it isn't leaking, I would simply leave it as is.

Before replacing the  noisy pump try cleaning or replacing the fluid reservoir.

The lower is the toe link, also called the lower forward lateral link.

Thanks for the  tips, parts are ordered. I soaked the bolts and will attempt next week.

Hank

I'm looking for info on the toe adjustment cam bolts. I'm wondering if someone here has had any luck removing them without having to cut them off

 I have the stability issue as well on my 2013. New tires helped, an alignment check showed that the front was good, the rear camber was close to the limit of negative camber. The toe was toed out past the limit. I checked the control arms and bushings, and found play in the inner bushings of the toe links.

 Before I attempt to replace these, has anyone done this? How about the adjustment cam bolts?

Hank

I had this happen on the 3.6 in my van. I also noticed that the spring was loose in the cap. Check for this by shaking the cap, if it rattles. Replace it.

 If I may clarify, I think Hankster is  saying you should also check the door weather seal conditions and rear floor storage bin areas edges are still working / making a good seal  ?

The only way you can get under the carpet is to pull the threshold trim.

Hank

Actually mine had water leaking in through the wiring harness push pin holes on the inside of the rocker panel. Had to seal up gaps in the body sealer on the bulkhead area. The water ran down into the rocker panel. The drains were stopped up with sound deadening foam, causing the water to leak into the car. Hope this helps.
