hi all. new member from central maryland.
have an '02 limited w/all option minus side curtain and abs.
bought new in october during the post 911 economic slump (wanted to do my part).
now showing 82,000 on the clock and has been pretty good with the exception of a few faults maybe you can chime in on- some big, some not so much:
1) eats front rotors every 30,000 miles. changed to aftermarket after the second set of oems- no further problems so far
2) rear diff. gave up at 68,000 mi after towing a light trailer 500 mi. covered under extended warranty, but finding a competent dealer to do the work was a challenge. had it 'fixed' 4 times, and still have some gear noise...
3) driver seatbelt latch has issues. needs a new one. no biggie.
here's the clincher:
4) intermittently cranks excessively before firing (although its getting worse). been stumped by this one. have changed fuel filter and pump, check valves, etc. it gradually loses fuel pressure down to 0 over time- but only sometimes. i'm now thinking its leaky injector(s). anybody else have the same issues?
thanks for your help!
