And a thermostat is actually a really easy job. I did mine a few years back just as preventive maintenance. Can be done in about an hour in your garage.Last edited by MonoxideChild; August 27, 2014, 06:44 PM.PaTricK~ 92 PGT, 97 KL MTX 626, 05 Mazda6, 13 Mazda CX9, 09 Kia Sportage 4x4 v6 ~

Its will need quite a few parts replaced in its future.
Tires will need replaced (could probably make it though winter)
Brakes (the seem fine, but dealership says they have like 20% left)
PS rack (eventually needs replaced)
small tranny pan leak (I couldn't find it but deal ship says its there)
Tiny crack in windshield that I'm sure will spread
Needs floor mats
Battery on its last legs
Another thing I'm not sure of. It only has one key and no keyless entry. Did this car really not come with keyless entry? Can I buy key blanks on eBay and have the dealership cut and program them? What's this buisnness I hear about having 2 keys to program a third?Licensed car dealer & Probe addict [former owner of 17 Probe GT & 2 Probe SE]
