Then as far as the shifter is concerned it is actually a mess with 5th ..it just doesn't feel smooth or directed.. like the tolerances of a Willy's ...

1200 mile service is in the morning.. and I am about to tell them to keep it until it feels like an 80k car..

Not to mention.. this steering pull when lka is disabled is stupid

Ugh.. kinda mad.
Obviously, I cannot feel what is happening with your transmission and clutch. but it always seemed to me that FWD cars' clutches are different from RWD cars. Most of my driving has been on RWD cars or 4WD/AWD cars whose primary output has been the rear wheels, so that is what I am used to. Whenever I have driven FWD cars, the clutches always felt "grabby". (not a technical term, but that was the word I used.)
