thank you!!

the only issues i have/had were/are:
breaks, omfg, i have to replace my rotors and pads
every 5-9 months (the rotors warp).

i had some freekin seal blow and messed up my antifreeze/oil,
plugged my cat, messed up my sensors.....
$1200 later..... that happened around 126k miles.

i had both cv's & hubs replaced after 16k miles.

other than that, i love the old hag.

Welcome, The only reason your rotors are warping is because you are too hard on them, ease up on the break pedal my friend and your problem will be solved. :thumb:

(trust me, I haul a 600lb ATV with my ho' and have no issues with warped rotors)

That was a special edition breakdown :).

I've only got so much on mine because half of it is highway miles. For the past month I was driving 120 miles everyday.

for the longest time, i did not like my car.

in fact, i hated it.

it felt like every week something broke on it.

now, with all of your help, i have fallen in love with my car.

thanks to all of you, i can drive my car with a smile.
