Mine is now running 201,500 kms (please convert to "miles" yourself ) I will tell you want has been replaced so far 1. Starter --> faulty, was replaced after around 199,000 kms. 2. Engine Mount --> faulty indicated by noisy on passenger side 3. Blower Resistor --> faulty, indicated by uncontrolled blower 4. AC Compressor --> faulty, indicated by hot AC 5. Rear Pinion Bearing on Differential --> this causing noisy on rear side if not replaced 6. Spark Plug --> replaced at 125,000 kms as preventive maintenance 7. serpentine belt --> replaced at 190,000 kms as preventive maintenance (it should be at 167,000 kms actually) 8. brake pad --> consumeable Now coolant it's start leaking, which I expect since some of component is rubber and it's 10 years old car since production and I live in middle east with heat up to 55 degree celcius during summer Overall, the product is OK, maintenance is normal The next plan is to replace transmission oil which is due after 10 years or 250,000 kms Last edited by adywicaksono on 14th Nov 2017 5:32 pm.
