Beside normal maint (oil change, tire rotation, 75k service), I had the following repairs during the last 2.5 years:

LIM leak, replace Fuel Pulsation Damper, thermostat, radiator hoses $1500 P&L
Brake Pads $45 Parts only

The repair cost really depends on the condition of the car. It's not like you replace the LIM gasket every 2 yrs, for example. It's something that you do once for the life of the engine.

We get about 4 posts a day for "maintenance" and "reliability".

Please use the SEARCH button on the upper right.

Thanks, Jeff
