Default Need help from the pros

Hello there , I am the owner of 2010 IS 300 , with around 80000 miles .

Lately I've had a few problems with my car, like car shaking when breaking , and weak A/C flow

I took it to the official dealership in my country and got the report in attachments

Just want to ask what to repair first ? what can wait till next month ? is there something that should be done together ? Thanks a lot in advance.

You really should have asked the technician that serviced the car what was important to have repaired right away. I dont know wht type of driving you do so its hard to say but can use your own judgement and common sense, some front end issues you can drive with for a long time without repair but only a technician can tell u wht was critical or enough to repair right away.

You are right I should've mentioned that

I will be meeting the technician in 3 days due to National holiday , also

I live in a hot and humid country, I drive mostly on highways, my daily commute is around a 50 miles a day, and do you know any reliable online site to buy parts from ? They are so expensive from the dealership .

I'd find out about that crack, replace the worn tires, and have the rotors resurface and pads replaced. Shocks can be done a bit later, but I wouldn't skip them entirely.

It's great living in central Texas no rust. I still always once a year with both my LX's use rust arrester to prevent any nicks, etc. from becoming rust also hit the bottom with some rustolium to add more layers of protection
