With the exception of the steering damper leaking oil and being replaced under warranty at 17,000 odometer miles, my crossfire has been troublefree I replace the oil every 5000 miles each Fall before I put the Crossfire in heated storage for the winter. During the winter I start it every two weeks , back it and drive it forward a few times , and let the engine warm up fully. I don't race it but , I also don't baby it. I've gone thru three sets of Continentals on the rear and am due for a new set of four in the Spring, when I am contemplating having GY eagle fi a/s installed. Has anyone else had a simular or better experience?
