I don't know what to think about this. I replaced mine because of all the dire warnings, but when I pulled it off at about 120000 km (MY 99) it was in perfect condition and probably had a few more years left in it. Seems to me I spent a few hundred bucks for nothing. I'm thinking that sometimes we let our paranoia and the fear-mongers drive us to go overboard on this preventative maintenance thing.

I've never done this on previous vehicles I've owned. When things broke, I fixed them. I never went looking for things to replace because they might break someday. I think I need to get back to that mindset.
