Hi, Our expenses so far have included rear main seal replacement at least twice. Radiator replaced twice. The air conditioner compresser and condenser were replaced. Air mass meter and several O2 sensors were replaced. Several sets of warped rotors. Every piece of plastic in the interior imaginable has cracked (speaker covers, trim, etc.). Door hinge broke. Ignition switch was replaced. The car still only starts intermittently. The radio amplifier was never connected until I found it after owning the car for years, thinking the radio just stunk. The antenna motor went and antenna came back from dealer bent. They finally gave us a straight antenna that doesn't go down all the way. We've had loose exhaust manifold. Loose intake manifold. We've had a slow leak they attributed to the head gasket, but said no rush. We just had that done. The car has never over heated though. While at the dealer, the car was stuck by another vehicle while in the repair bay. They did pay the damages for that and allowed us the keep a loaner while the car was being repaired and painted. The power steering pump is leaking and needs replacing. The seat belt in the center rear cracked resulting in the purchase of an entire new seat belt. The fuel injection system when tested following replacement of ignition by myself in a blizzard at a local supermarket showed no pressure. I have trouble getting the key to turn in the ignition at times. Moon roof doesn't always open. This is just a sample. I don't have records in front of me, but this should give you an idea of the types of problems we're having. I hope this might help give some idea what is causing the catalytic converter consumption problem. Thanks for any suggestions.
