Radio presets vanished.
Then reprogrammed them (with new memory settings)
Next morning, the original presents came back (and the new memory settings gone)
Just thinking about it freaks me out a bit ...

E) Oh yes, All the window seals and sun roof seal changed - Check
F) Transmission/engine from a standing start up to 3000 RPMS still sucks, never know when it is going

On the 04. The seat belt fault twice. And that was all. She behaved like a real lady the two years she was with me. I did 19K miles.
The current with only 142 miles? Nothing as of now. I hope she is as good as my last lady.
