no i been driving my 7afte for a month or so, no problems yet. i go to my mechanic for my weekly check on my car...check everything is up and running the way it suppose to. what is the percentage of a 7afte blow the engine? let say i have 160k miles on my car, what are the chances the engine will blow?
