A month into VX ownership,II noticed the original timing belt was still going strong @ 185k and installed a Gates TCKWP303 Timing Belt Kit with Water Pump to keep fate at bay. Shortly after went in some new SurTrack IZ-8021 CV Axle Shafts and Moog ball joints. With fresh axle half-shafts, the TOD system is way better than I thought after having the jerkiness with the old shafts. If you think your TOD is crap, install new shafts. Of course, none of this helped all the oil disappearing without a trace. If I drive nice, I can go 1000 miles before adding a quart. If I drive like I do, I get between 500 and 800 miles it seems. Interesting enough this exactly matched the behavior my 99 Trooper had with about the same miles on it, so I am already trained in. Let’s just say I am used to having a monthly oil budget in addition to gas.
