Thrust arm bushings likely cracking and slopping if not changed yet. $1k job

Oil filter / cooler housing gaskets done yet? $800 job.

Water pump and thermostat median life span is 75-125k mi $1500 job

Oil pan gasket is likely leaking $1200 job.


If your goal is drive a $60k car as long as possible and you're allergic to maintenance you might want to get out now.

What are the symptoms for a failing differential bushing ? and what are the symptoms of a failing thrust arm bushing ?
