Tom-
We have a 4cyl 2.3 2000, with 65k.
I don't have my full list here, but in the past year and a half we've replaced the turbo, DI cassette, drive belt, transmission range switch, pads and rotors, front shocks. can't think of what else right now.
have taken it in several times for its "stoplight shudder" that makes my wife nervous, and for cold-weather squeaking, but with no luck on those.
I did get an ominous sinking feeling monday when we approached the 5-mile long bridge north of mobile, al. unfortunately it was justified and we coasted to the shoulder right in the middle of it. am hearing from the dealer that it may be a fault in the limp-home solenoid (?), even though it wasn't limping- it wouldn't even respond.
If there's no diagnosis on this problem, I'm not comfortable anymore even driving it back from the dealer, much less it being my wife's daily driver.
