Only 2 things so far. Master cylinder for front break started seeping and ate the plastic coating of the cover (I believe a service tech either over or under tightened the cover bolts). Had the part replaced and checked the torque myself when I got home. Also, my inner primary started leaking and I had to have a seal replaced on that (took a little time finding that one - I thought I might have either a bad gasket on the primary drain plug or a crack in the case there).

~6 mos. of ownership @ ~8500 miles mix of short hops and long distance

-1 ea front engine mount for improper fit and resultant fatigue
-1 ea rear engine mount for rubber fatigue
-rear shifter arm was partially off of pinion (the one that goes into the transmission--a pain to get to) which trashed the bolt from all the vibration, fixed this myself by purchasing a new grd 8 bolt from the hardware store, suprisingly pinion still looks gtg
-plastic anti-rattle clip for the clutch lever was worn down to the point that the clutch lever rattled like a machine gun--a $3.00 platic piece the size of your pinkie nail--got for free under warranty--booyah (haven't put it in yet I'm saving it for later)

Anything could happen with mechanical stuff at any time
