The Chrysler 2.7 is pretty notorious for timing chain tensioner failures, but I thought all the ones prone to it were already dead. Guess there's still a few holdouts.

Every 2.7 I have ever driven behind has smelled of burning coolant from a bad headgasket. They are shitboxes that should have never been designed.

Two years ago this girl I was going to school with was in the market for a new vehicle. "I have $5,000 and I want to get a Wrangler." Since I live 5 minutes from her I told her I'd go car shopping with her. The next week she comes in and says she just bought a 2002 Sebring Vert for $5,000. I face-palmed myself so hard I was in a coma for a week.

A basic superbike motor build will make over 200whp... and I guarantee you all the club racers aren't changing chains every race. poo poo, the ZX10 and S1000RR will make 200whp with a tune/full exhaust.

I'm not sure if it's the NZ media or just the herald but they have a really weird thing about reporting on mishaps to nice cars and houses. Throwing the word luxury in front of something, even if it's a 15 year old 3 series, seems to make it newsworthy.
