This car has been reliable for me for basically my whole adult life, and like to think I've been good and responsible with it considering the low mileage for the age. Automatic transmission, however no shuddering or any major issues which I am told are notorious with these cars. Sitting at a crossroads though now since the vehicle is now 10+ years old and have been spending more on repairs within the last 2 years. I'm now at the point where replacing the timing belt is a necessity, which will mean more money spent. Everyone I've spoken to says these repairs are all worth the investment. Before I look into further investment, just wanted to hear how bad and and when transmission issues typically start to happen with these cars. If I can keep this car for atleast 2 or 3 more years that would be more than ideal.
