    OK, not really a newbie but been a long time since I was here. So now we are at 186,000 miles...
    Here is where we are at:
    Brakes still original (checked monthly when I change the oil at 6K)
    Seven headlights (until the last guy figured out dealers changed the type)
    Replaced trans oil at 125,000 miles
    Failing 12VDC battery which reset the car, I was getting 42MPG then when it reset... I am back now to 51MPG! Dealer checked the main battery, we are at 210VDC, so he says keep driving it.
    Have these failure codes
    P0420 and C2303, should I worry or just keep driving it?

    Yes, I will be buying another one when this finally shows some sign of wear.

    Yeah, I read that as well but... there were references to Oxygen sensors as well. Just thinking... what if I replace the Oxygen sensor. Seems much easier then getting on the ground?
