Hi, A rebuilt my 2.1 @ about 120 000Km and soon after that my coolant hoses started to fail. The following hoses burst over a period of about 6 weeks. The short hose in the vacinity of the dipstick. The two hoses near the oil filer. These where the worst to replace. I think that was all as this was about 5 years ago....Nothing else since then - touch wood....
