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.
Very Excellent round up of items and mileage of common failures on this car!
