what failed in your diff?
totally agree with you mate, bought my AU with 50 k on the clock now 200k, other than general wear and tear maintenance and the odd tiny AU flaws, best limo i`ve ever owned, now and again i think to myself , this thing is coming up on 11 years old and it still starts with the flick of a key, still on it`s second set of spark plugs and leads, why is it so reliable? |

You did 62,000km without an oil change? o_O
I neglected mine a bit because I hate the hassle of scheduling services and losing my car, it's more difficult in the outer suburbs. It went for nearly 2 years and about 30,000km... but now I change it religiously myself. Must be a good strong engine! |
