like the title says...just rolled passed 170,000 miles on the xr. gonna look back to see when we bought it, but i believe there was around 30k when purchased. its an 05 and the only thing ive had to do other than reg maint. like oil & filters, tires, wipers, etc. was a throttle body cleaning that the oil change shop tricked my wife into getting lol.
of coarse being in texas those are hwy miles, but it still runs strong and shifts good. i do have a few little issues i need to take care of, but nothing big i think. here they are...
1. for a couple years i get a "clicking" noise when i turn my vent on for "inside" circulation. if i turn it back to "outside" and wait a few minutes, it usually goes away.
2. the shifter is sloppy. it shifts fine and i rarely miss, and when i do, its prob my fault lol. ive own(ed) 3 supras, 2 of them being manuals, one was a 1993, the current project is a 1995 and have never seen this sloppy of a stick....actually none of the manuals on both 1993 rx7's i own now do it either.
3. in the last couple weeks ive notice a squeaking sound at idle. when i depress the clutch, it goes away. if i let off...it starts squeaking again.
any thoughts on the above problems?
anyone else have these isssues?
who else has passed the 150k mark?
what good & bad have you seen?
what can ii expect next?
