Default 20,000 Problem free miles, then...

...Nothing! I just wanted to post to let people know that this car CAN be trouble free. The problem posts needed to be offset by a little positiveness. I'd also like to reiterate what an incredible car this is. Aggressive, inspiring, and a little raucous. It's a dream on wheels for a sports car purist.

Gee, I wish mine was that way Just took mine in today for 3rd gear grind.......only 3,600 miles.

Other problems I have on my '02:
Rattling passenger seat
Rattle in the drivers door
Window going half way down

But there's enough threads about those problems!

Glad to hear at least one made it through the gauntlet to 20k!

re the right side seatbelt ... an even easier solution is to run the buckle up to the top where it will be out of the way and not rattle against the door.

Way, way back in the days, someone started a thread about their car starting without any problems that day. It was also done to offset some of the negative posts. Generally, people that are happy with the car and the way it runs don't post about it as often as the ones that have problems.

I don't think it's the seatbelt, but let me try that before I look like a fool complaining about it to the dealership!

My passenger seat had a rattle...it was reclined to far back and was rubbing against the roll bar think. Take a look. The seat belt think is deceiving.....i had another rattle in the passenger seat i remember these seat belt posts.....but it looked fine from my drivers seat.....but i still moved the seat belt and presto it was gone....might not look like its touching the door ...but a few bumps will make it hit. So far i am rattle free! Check both these out it worked for meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
