what should i be saving for or keeping my eyes one? ive got a 2000. already replaced the hatch shocks, and the oil pressure sensor went last week. previous owner had something in the fuel tank replaced. not sure what it is, but when i looked it up and was fairly common that year.

My 2000 has broken the exhaust three times..Due to the lousy design the pipes break at the flange and have to be re-welded...mine is welded in three of the four places it can break...These things also have a bad habit of developing leaks on the rear axle seals...Mine hasn't done that yet however.

Column lock, passenger window regulator and ground wire connections, from what I have heard.....
Sometimes the fuel gauge will go bonkers, but in 99 percent of the time, that can be fixed by a few tank fulls of Chevron gasoline.
