[QUOTE="Ignacio, post: 319561, member: 434"] Ahhhh, you neglected to tell us the warranty is up on your '03! Your perspective makes some sense now. At [URL="https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php?s=&showtopic=22503&view=findpost&p=265486"]presumably less than 25,000 miles[/URL]....you should probably be safe for the next decade or so. I would say your experiment is likely going to be successful and very informative for the garage queen contingency. We'll be waiting on the edge of our seats though. ;) Meanwhile, with 67,000 miles on and '05 and several years or warranty left you can bet I'm going to keep riding it like it was built for and if the engine goes south for some reason at 110K I'll be able to show them those 3 or 4 receipts for valve checks and have them put a new $4K motor in the thing because I followed the bean counter manual. And if the $200 to get it checked each time isn't worth it to me I'll do it myself and document it like I do most of the other maintenance. Isn't it great we all have free will? [/QUOTE]
