I'm getting this from the one sitting in the shop that's 90k miles that's had just about anything that can go wrong go bad. In the last month we have put a clutch and steering rack into it. He had new turbo's about 20k miles ago and may need new ones again. He says that every time it snows and he starts to get excited about driving it through the snow it breaks down and is in the shop. Its not as reliable as the 2.8 cuz everything is under a lot more stress w/ the power.
