runs good..i don't have the idle vibration anymore in the seats when sitting at a light..think that was a sign of a major problem
One thing it says on paper work...they tested oil pressure at idle and it was at 13 PSI..is this normal?

nah its something more serious with his suspension or rims but since he got the checked out while balancing it has to be suspension, my guess is still the steering rack since it sounds similar to the problem from my friends Altima with shaking at certain speeds and numerous balancing, alignment etc didnt help and ended up being a bad steering rack cause of an accident he had 6 months before...

Its not hard, just jack up the car and check the rack for slow leaks, bents or some other damage like broken steering rack mounts(look for play), it should be physically visible. just take it to any local mechanic and they should be able to tell you if its bad or not for ~$20-30. Also have em check you tie rods which could also be the problem.
