Re: Engine Hesitation 900 1993

Yeh, the early 30K interval was an OOPs for sure. However the belt change is a cinch and is so easy you can easily do 2 for the price of one of the other cars. This was redesigned in '95 and the interval is now easily 70K. In defense of the other annoying things, these are features influenced by legislation that your older cars don't have. True they should have put the extra $.05 in and made it reliable.

The only design issue I've seen with my car is the weak intake manifold gasket. (And of course the AC problem that all cars have had since the change over to R134a.)

Good luck with your's!
