I don't remember exactly when but the alternator and rear window wiper motor also broke. The head unit was also being sketchy this whole time and often the smell of something electric filled the car. I started hearing crackling somewhere under the dash so I traded it in.

It was a fantastic car otherwise and I miss it every day :'(
Have a 04 xB, Only thing that happen over the last 145k+ miles is the water pump and one ignition coil going bad. It's my daily so I baby it. I do about 2000 miles a month on her now with my new job. Not bad looking for a 04...
