I'm pushing 35k miles, unfortunately I can't say that I haven't had my share of problems. I'm having abad feeling my IMRC is either partially working now, or completely dead and I have a crimp in one of my hoses from the throttle body (that I swore wasn't there before). Going to take a good look over it this weekend to make sure I haven't @#$@ed something up.

And of course there's that hole in the underhood liner caused by the hose that i'm thinking has a crimp in it.

? For everyone here, there appears to be a hose on the top of the throttle body that I can't figure out for the life of me what it's for, I traced it down and it appears to go under the CAI and is not connected to anything (but appears to drain through what's left of my resonator box hole. Thinking it could be a drainage hose for excessive coolant (or coolant overflow). Damnit and to be without my helms manual when I needed it most.

Weird shit going on.

The 'maintenance' light recently came on indicating that I was approaching the 30K maintenance point.

The odometer this morning said 29175. Had the car since May 2000. While I've had little issues, I'm so incredibly happy with the car!

I'm just hoping that the transmission fluid change will eliminate the rough shifting!

I'm at 32k and this is the best car I've ever owned. Of course I was moving up from a 97 Hyundai Elantra and 90 Miata. In fact, if money was no object, I'd still own this car as one of my cars.

34,950 miles. 15 months.

I'm down to about 1,600 miles a month now, trying to drive conservatively. I averaged 3,000 miles a month when I first bought it... the speed was addictive.

No problems yet. The actuator is good, never bad. Fixed the sunroof problem at the dealer, no charge. I have no modifications.

My 30,000 mile tune-up was great, drives like new again.

I just hit 30k... had the 30k service done
I also just replaced my Bridgestone Potenza PolePosition S-02 245/40/18ZR's for S-03 235/40/18ZR's... I had driven 24k just on the S-02's and the guy told me most people don't go beyond 17k on 'em... he was really impressed that I made it this far on 'em and he said I could probably go another 5k on them... but I got a flat on one and it was beyond repair... so I had warrants and no more S-02... so I got one s-03 free and rest I paid for.

My car has been stalling lately... not sure why when I come to a quick stop. Since the 30k tune up it hasn't done it... thought that was only two days ago and I've been babying my new tires... only got 150 miles on 'em so far.
