LongHiway Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Just hit 100 K Monday. Front brakes at 66 K, rears at 95 K and the timing belt at 95 K (yeah, ahead of schedule). That's it aside from wiper blades and too many front headlights. Oil changes ~ 7500 miles (but, it's an N/A). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongHiway Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Just scanning this thread, I am driving a puppy. I hit 137 K in a previous Subaru before trading it in. Still good mechanically and the interior was also in good shape. The dashboard lights failed and I had some $ at the time so I said scr#w it and bought new. This was still a puppy compared.

Scooby2.5 Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 151,000 and 2500 in the bank saved up for my new engine when it goes. Should have 5000 by end of June.

Its nice to have the car paid off and saving the money ahead of time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongHiway Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Might have taunted the Gods. Just over 100 K and I think I have a wheel bearing going bad. Think I can get a warranty claim? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did have one of the rear wheel bearings replaced @ 99k due to a very slight humming noise... for no charge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
987687 Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 230k on my 98 GT. The motor I swapped in is garbage and the transmission is rubbish.... Other than that, it's a great car!

laxbudda Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Just over 115k in my '02. RF wheel bearing. LF fog light bulb. RR caliper, pads, wipers. Bout it. Going to have belt, tensinor, h2o pump replace in a month. Would like to put KYB-GR2's and H&R springs in for my bday (30th). When I saw this on the lot in '05 I immediatly had a vision and I'm about ready to complete my vision. Best car I've ever had. An intake, APEXI, short throw and a tune have made this the most economical, practical fun car to drive. Just can't let the GF get confused, it's not for kids, it for bikes and lax equipment. Best forum ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spec.B Dream Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Not so Regular. Valves sticking on the turbo, ongoing from 50-70K miles. Stopped after dealer lubricated them. I'd say. What is a turbo valve? The wastegate? I've never heard of any additional lubrication required on a turbo. Glad she's still generally running strong. I too have a love/hate with mine, but that's because she's modified. I'll post back here in another 40k when I can officially join you all.

It's really murky, it happened a few years ago. Basically my car was throwing CELs at random. They'd turn themselves off after a few hours or days. I took it to the dealer a few times and they could not figure it out. After quite a few miles the CEL went on and stayed on. This time they found a few codes in the computer that made sense to them. I want to say they blamed a flapper valve? I'll have to pull the paperwork to be sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
