Most Common Problems

[drpipes]

I thought it might be informative to have a list of common problems people have experienced with their cars and the easy solutions to them. Hopefully this will help avoid learning about them the hard way.
1) CV Grease Boot leak
2) Sticking clutch
3) Fuel Gage failure
4) Possible Excessive Oil Consumption-- Seems to be more common on 01's
5) Cracked Rocker Panels on Delivery

Those are the only problems I can think of that a lot of people have experienced. If anyone can think of others please post them.
