I performed all services before required and "babied" my car. Never raced or red-lined. The IMS failed at 129,666 miles. Don't know if it was bad luck or bad design....I just know that my wallet took a hit to get a donor engine and get her back on the road. Guess this is another, "I never thought this would happen to me story." Hope it doesn't happen to you...
