I agree, i love my car and it has not that much but, 107k on it, but i always take real good care of her, with tune ups, oil changes, checks, just as long as you maintaine they will stay strong.
the only major problem i have with mine is i need a new radiator, cuz its leaking from 3 very small cracks on the top.
.............but its ok though, at least it gives me a reason to get a new koyo wink.gif

p.s.the very small cracks somehow grew and its leaking pretty bad soo thats why im replacing.

check your oil and then check your coolant. ...see if they look like milk with coffee.

the coolant looks a little brown. kind of like lite tea looking color. But the thing is that it looked like that since i got the car.

anyone else thinking head gasket? easy fix if you know how and have a couple sockets you can have it off and cleaned up with a tune up in a day.

Yup you need to replace the headgasket there buddy.. Not that hard of a job, but will require a few good cd's and a case of beer and a day off with a buddy. This is when 4 cyls are da shiznit. haha..

Mines guna hit 147k in a day now.. well once i start driving it again. The wheel baring is busted and i need to replace the hub, cause replacing the baring didnt work. Burns some oil, 1 quart every 2k.. and well runs fine.

If you treat it right, no reason for it to let you down.
Sounds so much like a girlfriend tongue.gif
