My beater one year later

You've put 19k miles in it in 10 years and had 13 problems?
yes. seems kia knew what they were doing with the 100k waranty. car was super reliable till 100k. i got it from my brother who bought it new. the mercedes dealer offered 800$ for trade in 10 yrs ago. so he sold it to me cheap. yes a lot of issues but then again trying to keep a 20 yr old car of most makes is going to cost as components at 150k start wearing out. the parts are super cheap and everywhere surprisingly avalable. the car itself is superbly built but the mitshibishi 3.5 v6 is by far most of this cars problems.
 
Spend acouple bucks for all new shocks/struts all the way around. Sounds like it runs decent for you. My Acura TL ran great on 20 weight oil until sold.
