Grille Guard and Milage -- And other diminishing factors
All common sense approaches - might be helpful to post more info (perhaps with existing site framework everyone could have a brief snapshot of an expy's present status) I've run into this one = lightly sticking brake pad(s) => nowadays easily diagnosed w/ a thermal camera . . .- 00000

Strange wobble/vibration going 20-30mph
Without resorting to methods used by the Piranha Bros. it would seem that you are asking for general vibration troubleshooting advice. Firstly, how can you be absolutely sure it isn't a wheel or rotor issue did you get a tarot reading ? You also didn't mention your tires ( which are frequent...- 00000

Roaring Noise...ideas?
No-one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public ! is sometimes attributed to P.T.

Roaring Noise...ideas?
Also, if only to justify getting another (perhaps even higher quality) floor jack ~ eliminating easy to diagnose causes first can save your hairstyle. Say you have a faulty tire (steel belt separation) swapping front tires would move the noise you are sensitized to. Never trust your safety to a...- 00000

ALF, ILC, Batt voltage 14.5v??
Hot here [My Noorse Boskat Scheherazade hates the AC => can't smell Los Coyotes about] Suspect that 14.5 V. is a typo and should be the limp home (default) 13.5 ~ That 11.8 you are getting almost certainly points to a dead cell [in summer most V8s w/ a heavy duty battery will start with a...- 00000

ALF, ILC, Batt voltage 14.5v??
Suspect the best advice you are going to get is what I've already gleaned here and/or experienced (1) Looking @ the stock battery cables / clamps of my 2008 = seem cheap and will upgrade them (2) available batterys are expensive for what you get => my experiences with top of the line...- 00000
