Default CTT reliability

What year and how many miles does your CTT have on it? What issues have you had?

Ours was making a loud noise - like a bearing was turning out of whack sound - it went a while back - maybe in the 50,000 mile range.

Contrary to what people think we have had great success with ours!! Again T2 knocks on wood.....

I have an 04 with 22,000 miles. A few recalls (ABS light, rear seat belts and possibly a couple other minor ones which I have forgotten). Never need to add oil (except at oil changes of course). Porsche Entry and Drive gremlins, but mechanically absolutely no problems.

'03 launch vehicle with 70K. Minor issues only except at 21k where I had breakdown due to coils. In the shop about a week for that issue. Otherwise really just minor stuff. It does drink oil like a "Village Drunk" (about a quart every 2-3K) however so stock up on Mobil 1 0-40W.
