Damn you drive a lot. How long have you had yours? I don't think you should have a problem with your xb2 as long as you do the regular maintenance.

36k miles is only the bumper-to-bumper warranty. You still have the rest of the 5yr./60k drivetrain warranty.

mann i really never want to be the owner of you car tha manual clearly said and also at the scion webpage at the mantainance part here it is and i copy pasted so you got

Scion recommends obtaining scheduled maintenance for your vehicle every
5,000 miles or six months, whichever comes first.
For example:
> If you drive 5,000 miles in less than six months, you should obtain maintenance at
5,000 miles - don’t wait until six months.
> If at six months you have driven less than 5,000 miles, you should obtain
maintenance at six months - don’t wait until 5,000 miles.
Be sure to keep an eye on your mileage so that you obtain maintenance when
recommended. If you are a low-mileage driver, mark your calendar to remind yourself
to obtain maintenance every six months

You obviously missed something; he said:

That means he has serviced it approximately once each 6 months, just as the manual recommends.

X2 for above ^^^

If you think you can read REALLY REALLY reallyreallyreallyreally F---A---S---T, make sure you can actually comprehend every word.

Then again, Pierre has good advice for anyone who has their xB2 strictly as a show car.

congrats on no problems with the xB. i got mine sept 1 and have 22,000mi on it already... with no problems at all. i also bought the 6yr/100,000mi warranty because i knew i'd be killing the 36,000mi deal in less than 1 1/2yrs. i hope i have the same luck as you!!

You've got non-Toyota intake, header, exhaust, and suspension; how much of your warranty did you expect to maintain?

Not hating on you, just wondering what you expected.

BTW, nicely modified!
