Well, I just got a call from the dealer. Not good news :

- He says the brakes are at 20-30%. I just did them less than 2 years ago. Does this sound right ?

- He said the clutch should be replaced soon and they can fix the RMS as well ( I knew about the RMS - about a drop a week )

- He said the "cam covers" are leaking and could start a fire with the exhaust. Any idea what this is ? $1900 to fix !

- The bleeder valve on the coolant tank is leaking. $300 to repair

To top it off, my air conditioner at home died a week ago. That's a $1300 repair ( scheduled for this Friday ).

I can't see dropping $3500 + into a car that's only worth around $9000, so I may be getting rid of the car soon.

Very upset !

Nick
