Squeaky clutch doesnt sound good! is it the clutch pedal or the clutch plate?
Problems I've had with mine so far:
condensation in both rear tail lights
radiator temp sensor
hard start

I bought a used 2004 with 22k miles and have owned the car for little over a year I have had
Repair:
transmission rebuild
both tail lights had water
engine mounts
new starter (hard start)
new battery (hard start)
new spark plugs ( hard start)
parking brake lever
Oil dipstick (milky substance)
AC **** replace
cost = 0
Maintenance:
clutch replaced (35k miles annoyingly early)
front brake pads replaced
8 oil and filter changes
Air filter replace and 1 refresh
cooling system flush
2 wiper blade replaces
normal tire maintenance
cost: about $1000
also new tires: $800
over $4000 dollars in fuel
Repairs Before I bought the car:
AC enhanced
all recalls
The grin one receives as the tach hits 9000 RPMS priceless
