Picked up a black 05 xb today with 25xxx miles! Super excited to have it but now I have a few questions. What do I need to look for to replace (what is the norm for an XB that tends to need replacing)? Anything you guys/gals think I should know being new to scions? Thanks a bunch

 

only things i have ever heard of going out are the water pump and batteries. maybe some alternators but i would say that you should check your belts and hoses and do an oil change with mobile1

 

30,000 miles- service manual recommends
change spark plugs + transmission fluid

 

70,000 miles on my 06 RS4, love it as my to work gas saver. Did audio upgrades, the only thing happened was the air conditioning compressor at 25,000 miles. They said that was crazy that the impellars had shredded apart, besides the normal maintenance, and that was covered under warranty, haven't replaced nothing. I'm finally replacing the pads with OEM pads since they did so great.

 

Mine has 173,00 on it and the only thing i had to replace was one wheel bearing at around 100,000, And had problems with the cam positiong senser at about 30,000. You might want to watch out for the cam senser as the 05s had a problem with that.
