maybe ill get a buddy come buy and check it out, but another shop said theyd check it out for free in markham area
Yes, the lugs have to be tightened (torqued) properly using a torque wrench. Not difficult to do and a good torque wrench is not that expensive. You will find many people that will not let a shop tighten the lug nuts - they tend to overtighten them.

I thought everybody kept jacks, stands, torque wrenches, &c in the garage.
