I know...but the car is 10 years old now.
I replaced both drive shaft cause one broke.
Did the timing belt and water pump (7 years or 160km) I'm at 10 years.
Wish I didn't have to.

Many will say it wasn't needed at 10 years....many will say it is. Kudos to you for having the maintenance done on time/early and ready to enjoy the car for many more years.

mine broke as well, at 150,000 miles. the guy said it's common with many cars, since the damper (a rubber piece) used to soften the noise often promotes rust.
