I remember that guy. I have always wanted to know what has been going on with that CSVT, but he hasn't posted anymore.

I'm at 96,500mi. My 3rd gear synchro has had enough and is starting to make noise. I guess it's time to start saving up for the inevitable.

77k on my 99.

Had to replace the right rear wheel bearing and 3 of my 4 02 sensors since some F'ing animals chewed through all but one.

First dibs on purchasing when/if the time comes, Brian.

Mine has 106K :

* Alternator
* Ft wheel brngs/ tie rod ends
Still has the cracking clearcoat disease, tho.

/ZZZ




I'd sell it today if the price was right BTW, I just checked and its 2020 miles to be exact

1998.5 SVT. 147,466 miles. Bought it originally at 77,600 So I am almost to my 70,000 mile mark without blowing anything important...oh wait this stuff broke:

Rack and Pinion Steering
Fuse Box (in car one)
Water pump (10,000 miles ago)
1st sync on my transmission
Linkage to my transmission



But Nothing serious right now
Same antifreeze Same tranny fluid Same brake fluid Same exhaust (minus resonator)
Koni Struts

But my headlights do a light show for the first 2 minutes after they are turned on which is hinting at bad alternator

2nd 3rd and 4th sync's are all starting to get rough and gruff and will soon crap out on me.
