Default Re: For 2001 PT cruiser Owners

I'm the first and only owner of my 2001. In 90,000 miles, I've only had to replace rear suspension bushings and recharge the a/c. Thats it. (knock on wood!) Everything else was routine maintenance like the timing belt or brakes. Now I did put a supercharger on it back in 2003 which caused me to have to replace the catalytic converters and oxygen sensor and MAP sensor because it was running rich for a long time, but that has FINALLY gotten fixed. I have been more than pleased with how reliable it has been. I have driven my father's 2008 and it just felt different to me. I really think the 2001s were built pretty solidly, especially for a new model.
