There are several major parts to this 4 wheel driver. The AC evaporator tends to go and replacement is very expensive. The 4 wheel drive system is OK if it is the new type, the original required all 4 tires to be identical in make and wear, else the drive system will burn itself out. There is also very little room to work in the engine bay, the engine is sideways! But much more room than in an Audi/VW.
If you live in the snow belt, you will love the awd. It will also cost you some gas milage, 25-27mpg on the highway and around 20 in town.
