"Rosey" just turned 100K !
It's been a little over two years now and over 50K that I personally put on this car and the " Luv Affair " is still on ! 
Just for grins I thought I'd give Rosey a lil present to comemorate the Big 100K and had her tranny oil and filter changed. WOW ! What a difference new oil makes ! The trans is shifting better than it ever has and even chirps the wheels goin into second gear ! Course the nice cool 38 degree air in Central Texas right now may have a bit to do with that .

Re: "Rosey" just turned 100K !
Hey Stogey,
During those 100k miles, what types of issues and replaced parts have you and Rosey endured? Would be nice to have a list of things for us to keep an eye out for during the first 100k miles with our cars.

Relay Control Module - replaced - dreaded Mystery No Start
Rear Wheel Speed Sensor - replaced - had no control over wing
Crankshaft Vibration Dampner - replaced - came apart at the rubber insulator
That's it for my part ! The rest has been normal maintenance, tires and oil !

Congratulations Stogey. Glad to see that people are enjoying their cars and not afraid to put a few miles on them.
Gotta change my driving habits a bit, or my car might outlive me.
