This is a Jinx Post. To brag about our good fortune is to invite the Catastrophic Engine Failure Gods to rain their 'D-Chunking', 'IMSB-Meltdown' Timing Chain Stretching, Water Pump disintegration, AOS Failing curses upon us
I'm 3rd owner, bought 2 years ago at 52k miles. No previous history
I daily drove (Winter, Cold, Snow) up till last January
I'm now at 73k miles
Last spring drove 2200 miles down to Fla and back via Blue Ridge - Not a peep
Last Hwy stretch home it was getting 31 mpg.
The more I drive the better the mpg
I do the services (oil every 6 months) and any repairs.
Repairs have been minimal, Climate control display, Frt Engine mount, Fuel Pump Relay
I'm going through the front suspension - Sway bar bushing and drop links, Tie Rod inner & outers and lower control arms
She runs strong, clutch is still strong. I do have a new AOS sitting in the box ready
I would like to do preventive Water Pump, low Temp Thermo
There I did it
My next post will be Roller for sale
