Hey all. I was just wondering for my own personal benefit. If you can remember, when did your cars start giving you big problems? Regardless if it was modded up, bone stock, whatever.
Just curious

Almost 60k on my car and never had a single problem I didn't induce (ie forgetting to tighten a coolant hose).
There should be an option for those of us that don't have problems.

Ex fd *****
My first major prob was @ 103k when a water seal blew but it already had 83k on it when I bought it and I did replace the rear main seal @ 85k just because I did not like it dripping in the garage.
