I LOVE this car. The only annoying thing is that I kept going through those car washes at the gas stations. The power wash under spray that they do when you drive into the wash caused my cars evap solenoid to break every single time. I have no idea why this happens but it will throw 1 or 2 codes which will trip the check engine light. The part costs a good bit of money but can be replaced quite easily. It's right under the car on the rear passenger side. It's located right beside the gas tank and is super easy to change out. Its circular and looks like a charcoal canister but it has the solenoid and a small filter inside.
