    100k

    Sweet, I've got 108k+ on mine. I've had her since birth in 02. Regular oil changes and i've only changed tires and brake pads. Still running great. No creaks, squeals or knocks. I should probably get a new timing belt soon. I'm running her 100 miles a day to and from work. Great 4 banger...

I.E. gas consumption, reliability, anything you wish you'd done better or not done?, how much boost are you running, any mods to engine internals, does it pass...

    Oxygen sensor gone bad, any D.I.Y. info greatly appreciated...

    On Jan 20, 09 I was told the code is P0031 . ( if anybody has a clue, I'd love to hear it ) The first one was replaced in august of last year, but they never told me which one was replaced. All I have from that is the part no# : 547-147, which i've been trying to track down with no luck.
