the automatics in those have a life expectancy of 150,000 miles or so,when it goes your looking at dropping $2500-4000.not to mention the fact that a head is gonna cost you probably 2 grand also.the 01's with auto's were to have t-belts every 40k miles.but they revised the belt and rollers in late 02 to go 100k,but alot of dealers used the same belt it was supposed to have and not the revised one.and that looks like the case here.too bad if you keep up on the belt you can get lots of miles out of em.mine has 345,000 miles.
