    I just had to crack the rear axle nuts off and service the drums. They were starting to howl pretty damned loudly under light braking. Got all the dust and rust out of there, and tightened the ebrake up while I was thinking about it.

    35,000km, and it's the first "repair" done so far, although my window fell apart 5 months ago, waited forever on parts, and now the regulator is being replaced next week. So the window failed before the brake issue, but the first repair goes to the brakes.

    Rear brakes? Shoes basically looked new haha.

    Window jumped the track, seemed like it got stuck, despite the car being warmed up on a winter day it popped when it first came down. Dealer ordered the clips for it which were backordered, I kept using the window so I torched the regulator bringing it up amd down on an angle. Then the regulator was out of stock as well.

    A radio that has starting issues until it warms up in the winter, the muffler fell clean off because the flange rusted out prematurely, and after 186,000 km, the engine seems to burn about a quart of oil between oil changes (8,000 km/6 months). Aside from that, it's been a pretty solid vehicle. Still going on the original engine and clutch
