I know the 6th gen celica is one of the most reliable cars out there, and ive got a 96gt (5sfe) are there any known reliability issues with our cars at all?

What would be the car's weakest point?
thnx!

hhhmm

My Celica has 110k mi. on it (almost)

it needs:

2 ABS sensors
a rear wiper motor

other problems:

rattles in the rear suspension area
rattles in the doors
creaking sounds in the dash
groaning when the car goes over speed bumps from the front suspension
squealing!!! front brakes
noisy emergency brake (but effective)
engine leaks oil and drips on the ground :-p
3rd gear syncro is pretty bad...
driver's side high beam is letting water in

that's it though... and Im being VERY picky and I drive it HARD!

BUT! I get:

a sporty looking car (lots of people think it looks cool tongue.gif )
sporty feel
nice interior feel with good quality materials
nice transmission (except for 3rd gear)
nice steering
good handling
cool sounding exhaust biggrin.gif makes me feel like im driving a car faster than it really is hehe
