I'm at 72k miles, bought my tib in april of 2000 (750 miles on it from the dealer, lots of test drives i guess) Build date is 7/99.
problems :
cruise only works intermittantly
Clutch replaced @ 65k, it was starting to slip
wore the stock tires down completely in 48k, now have toyo's
windshield seal is bad....not good when you're trying to drive in the rain and theres water dropping onto the brake pedal. Dealer wont do anything about it. So i will, soon.
rear view mirror vibration.....i fixed that.
both front wheel bearings replaced....between 50k and 60
1-2 shift is rough, maybe synchros gone bad....will try an oil additive in tranny in the next month or two.
