THE FIRST thing I would do is check if the recall has been preformed on your lower control are. I could write up a list of things to be changed on our cars at certain mileage intervals. _____________________________ Yesterday is History, Tommorow is a Mystery, but today is a gift.

I had to replace my 5 speed tranny at 159K miles because I failed to notice a leak that ran the tranny dry so it cooked itself [there was an engine leak at the same time and I didn't know that our cars run 30 weight oil in the tranny so I thought all that oil was engine oil, after I got the engine leak fixed the tranny was out of oil so I never noticed it leaking] I changed the timing belt when I repaired the oil leak and I have not had any prolems with the car since then. It does use a litle bit of oil but nothing that wouldn't be expected from a car with 242K miles on it. I do have a right front bearing making noise that needs to get replaced [I hit a curb] I get 27MPG city and usually get 34MPG highway [I got 36.6MPG on a trip throught the Blue Ridge Mountains a few years ago] (in reply to bcrunk) Post #: 5
