I'm 1-1/2 years past the warranty period. Only 2k on it though, not nearly enough abuse to warrant anything close to this. Seems to be a common failure with the 4+ now that I've looked into it. One guy with the same problem got his repaired well after the warranty period, so I have my fingers crossed.

I hit 100k miles at 100 mph.
Car is back together and still runs, even!
Looka all the crapola I got rid of...well, you cant see most of the stuff I swapped and it's nothing in contrast to some of you guys but dammit it's a step! Test drives were today...tomorrow is the commute. Cross your fingers everything goes well. I worry too much but with all the gaskets and parts I replaced I feel like I am BOUND to have a problem somewhere.

60% of the time, my car works every time.
Didn't touch the Stealth today. That's significant because for the last 8 weeks, everyday has been spent either doing the RT conversion, detailing it, working on little stuff to get ready for the NG, driving to the NG, racing at the NG, driving back from the NG, getting it ready for Extreme Autofest, driving to Mod or showing the car at the NG and Extreme Autofest. Doing nothing for a change felt good.

I secured my boost controler's vacuum line that popped off sending my boost through the roof and making it run like poop every time I accelerated...

Yesterday - changed oil/filter, and while empty installed sending unit for full sweep oil pressure gauge. Today, will hopefully get the gauge mounted and wired, and perhaps wire up and mount the homelink unit I've had for a while.
Leaving for Tennessee in the morning, but AC needs fixed when I get home, and I need to track down my the f'ing plug for my windshield washer pump.... I apparently left it unplugged last time I was in there and can't seem to find it without probably taking the strut brace, battery, battery tray etc. etc. out.
Got the 6-speed mounted back in with a friends help, after failing for 2 hours to get it mounted yesterday. F*ck that transmission.
