Default It's over...my warranty



This morning in my driveway.


On the way to work.


A few seconds later


That is all.....Car is just under 1.5 years old. Haven't had any major problems yet. It's been good to me. Hopefully it stays this way for years to come.
* Replaced secondary O2 sensor
* Replaced passenger wiper (bolt stripped and wiper stopped moving)

Can I? I've received many mailers telling me I should extend the factory warranty, but I ignored them. Is it too late now to extend being that I'm already past 36K?

I don't anticipate anything going wrong, but you never know. Repairs could be costly.

yeah... see how much it is... i dont think its that expensive... when i bought my car, it came with the CPO warranty... thank god because my car was right at 36K when my top got ripped... and now the timing chain tensioner is going and they will be inspecting that today... i mean its only $100 part, but thats $100 in my pocket and a free rental to beat the **** out of

I'm at 60 k and my car is fine... TCT is getting slightly louder, but thats the only thing I have to replace. So I say don't worry about the extended warranty.

x2. My MY04 ran out after the 3 years...at that point I had only 13k on it.

I am getting better though. I am up to averaging 5k miles a year on it!

Here in MD we have 87-89-93 at most places... In other states like Cali, they do not sell 87... So they have 89-91-93! I kinda wish it was like that here, so we could run 91 instead or 93.

Not really, I just drive a lot. Everyone I know lives in the south suburbs so I go there at least once a week and I just drove out to Norwalk, OH this weekend for the ADRL race.

I think the number is closer to 1600 actually after I looked at it this morning. Ridiculous.

Same here. MY02 ran out in '05 and I only had about 15k on it.

Where do you get your information ? California does not sell 93 at any pump regularly anywhere. We DO HAVE 87, 89, and 91. Thats it.

That's what I was told by a friend... It seems rather stupid that we have 93 EVERYWHERE but California with it's tougher emissions does not have it anywhere.
