Re: Milestones

Kim,

Any warranty/repair issues?

I'm think about getting a "previously tested" (AKA "used") one. Thanks

Congrats! Yes, any problems with your coolant pipes or cardan shaft that I read so much about on other sites?

Re: Milestones

Not sure how much of this should be expected in a 5 year old vehicle but...

1. replaced front differential at about 165K
2. replaced driver's side door locking mechanism - had to cut door striker off to get the door open
3. replaced both radiator cooling fans
4. replaced both catalytic converters due to rust through of flex pipe
5. replaced coil packs
6. replaced oil pan due to drain bolt being stripped
7. replaced solenoid switch in transmission that was causing very hard gear shifts
8. replaced interior HVAC fan
9. replaced windshield wiper transmission
10 had to completely cut away the light assembly wiring harness where it attached to the inside of the fender to permit proper seating of the harness to the assembly to stop the weekly warnings that bulbs were burned out.

Plus usual V6 services every 15K.

All good otherwise.
