Hi,

I know its a massive task but what would be amazing is a rough cost estimate at a garage, parts needed to do work and if possible a video of how to fit them

 

[eldiablott]

this is a fantastic thread and something i have been looking for myself after buying a 2002 model and being a very big worrier with life expectancy of parts. thankyou and well done.

 

[gtgeek]

Great idea/thread. However I have a 2003 and it has 115K miles on it already, how could this thread help me? more updates?

[Tone]

Wiring to coil pack failed at 60,000 miles.

No idea if this is still being used but just in case,
2001, 180, 6 speed. Detailed history only from 55,000mls 2007-present 87,000.

55,800 - Cam belt, Water pump, Pulley belt (assume failed water pump?)
61,600 - Rear brake discs
66,000 - Front Springs
69,800 - Front brake discs
71,400 - Hazard light switch, Catalyst Heat Shield
71,900 - Alarm Siren. Battery
72,800 - Dual mass flywheel. Clutch, Bearing, Rear Springs, Front large bushes?
74,800 - Front ARB bushes
80,900 - Rear ABS Sensors, NS rear wheel bearing
81,200 - Battery, front ABS sensor
83,400 - Rear brake discs
83,400 - Drivers door microswitch
83,400 - Electrical Fault on Dash Repair
84,000 - Mileage somewhere around 84k. Power steering fluid cooler pipe corroded and dumped all fluid, part replaced from breakers.
84,900 - Coil pack failure replaced one and plugs.
86,000 - Coil pack failure. Replaced remaining 3 as 1 replaced recently, OBD also showed an intermittent misfire on 2 other cylinders. One coil pack had failed. Intermittent miss traced to wires on top of head to all 4 coil packs had insulation that had begun to crack/breakdown - temporary but sound repair with insulation tape, ended up left as a permanent repair until it rears its head again or I feel like obtaining new stealer part or splicing new wires in, but I am loathed to cut any wire that is serviceable and just needs adequate insulation (silly and lazy, some may say, I say if it ain't broke, don't fix it!)
87,900 - Four wheel alignment on Hunter Alignment System carried out, yesterday, not pushed it yet, but first impression is it was worth the £72 which found excessive toe in on rear nearside and front offside. Front sorted but rear still just outside recommended as without removing the rear arms and cleaning the slots out/ replacing bushes it wasn't going to get there.

 

[GaryG]

Thermostat 65,000.

 

[old225chap]

Turbo broke up at 83000. Why?????????????? still being repaired. iNTERCOOLERS full of bits so 2nd hand ones being fitted!
Already replaced clutch, flywheel, master cyl x 3 ! Slave cylinder, 2 rear springs ?(fronts plus one rear already done when I bought the car at 63k) cam belt. water pump (kit - in case) hazard switch, clutch pedal switch, headlamp washers, thermostat, dipstick pipe !! (why make them out of plastic??) ARB bushes............
With turbo job will have spent as much as I paid for the car.
NEVER had a car cost me so much. And it was low mileage!

 

[asahartz]

Clutch at 159700. No idea whether it's been done before as the early history for my car is missing.

 

[OceanBlue05]

2005 base 180T auto, 82K miles, just bought used in December. Took it to my local indy shop for the look over, this was the laundry list:

-Both front CV boots replace
-Leak in P/S line, power steering pressure hose replace (ouch)
-Leaking transmission pan: sealed leak, replaced gasket, flush/refill trans fluid (also ouch)
-Replace failing hood struts
-Major interval service (75K apparently wasn't done by previous owner): plugs, flush/refill every fluid and replace every filter

All to the tune of nearly $3K US. DRL is out on the passenger's side, need to replace entire headlight assembly to fix, $900 part so leaving it for now (not required in the US).

Engine/belts/brakes/tires all fine...tech said he thought the car had actually been reasonably well taken care of but had probably been sitting for a while before I bought it.

Hopefully the next thing I need to take it in for is an oil change at 86K :-|
