Ha, I call mine the same thing, although it's getting to be more and more brown than yellow. If I can make it 200k without having to scrap or Flinstone the car I'll be a happy camper. Only 40,000 miles to go!

I've got to hand it to my friends north of the border, you certainly are a dedicated bunch! I wish I had half the ambition some of you had in order to keep these old clunkers running. It's a shame that rot so bad and easily.

I'm sitting at a little over 155,000 freedom miles right now, but the timing belt just went and while I'm in the midst of replacing it, I'm noticing the rot is much worse than I had feared. Wondering if it's even worth replacing at this point, although I absolutely love the car. I was kind of...

Anyone still have the photos for this?

One of the main reasons for the suckage is the fact that factory low beam uses an H4 connector with a missing wire and you've got to put an H7 adapter in between the bulb and that connector. It's like plugging a bunch of things into a single electrical socket. I've owned two of these cars and...

Just wanted to know the reasoning for this?

I've owned two manual P5's with a combined mileage of 270,000 miles and for the most part they were very reliable. Both had problems with the factory stereo where the CDs player stopped working. In both cases they were a good excuse to upgrade the stereo anyways. Had to clean or replace EGR...

I have 124,000 on mine. The wife's had 150,000 when we sold it to someone who is still driving it, despite the fact that most of the body has returned to the earth.

I usually stop and compare the rust. :(

While swapping her snow tires on the other night the wife mentioned that the jack kept blowing through the rocker panels. :/. She's going to pick up a clean 9-2X that I'm going to try and Fluidfilm while we figure out if it's worth fixing the floors, rockers, rear quarter panels and possibly the...

Do you get your car Krowned every year? Thinking that might be the way to go with the next one.

Has anyone scrapped their P5's due to the rust? I think it might be getting to that point on my old ladies. :(

I'm looking into purchasing a CX-9 for the same reason. You will want to upgrade to tow package specifications as you are already aware. As long as your camper has brakes I don't think you'll have any problem. In other countries vehicle tow ratings are much higher for identical specification...

I'd be interested in one or two, depending on price. What about getting AWR to make another run?

Do a search for Walker 51028. It's a replacement J pipe. You should be able to get it for less than $40. When I called my local Stealership and asked them how much for the OEM (Cast) J, they said something like $200! That's a nice price for crack.

My Girls shock towers, rear fenders, oil pan and subframe are rusted pretty bad. :(

Sell it and buy something else? :D

Good luck! I'm still working on my old ladys random misfire code. Let us know how you make out.

What about AWR?

Could this lead to a random misfire code?
