She's got 72,000 Miles on it, carfax checked out with no accidents, got all of the records, been well maintained. This one is definately a keeper.
I would like to switch to 10w30 Mobil 1 asap. ? what are the odds of it developing leaks thru some of the seals??
Also I would like o switch to Synthetic ATF, any possible problems there?
The dash does rattle quite a bit when going over bumps, makes it sound cheap and it is embarrassing when this is a $37,000 car. Are there some areas to re-tighten or isolate to stop it from rattling???
Any additional advice would be appreciative.

Thanks
