No problems other than rattle in dash.
SO's 05 Honda Accord V6 6sp has been was in the shop 3 times for a TCS light that would not go out and now the check engine light is on.
THAT is supposed to be one of the most trouble free cars you can buy!

No Problems
No squeeks.rattles or any other problems in 4800 miles. However the roads around here (FL) don't put much strain on things. All you can do is go fast and burn gas. Not very exciting. We have survived Phil Wick's MINI Driving School and four trips to NC (trailered up and back) which included numerous Dragon runs. Now thats a blast!
2005 MCS w/ 25,500 miles
Well today I'm at 25,500 miles and I finally replaced the tires but that is not what I am writing about. I got a rattling in my door! Its driving me crazy. Had it for several weeks. Today I figured out the problem...My wife's hair clip in the passenger door. Problem fixed.
Really though there is not one problem with my mini in 14 months of ownership. Well I guess I really cant say that. I did have the axle fall out of the tranny - towed it in...4 days in a loner (MC w/nav) and problem fixed. Recently my PDC has gone quiet. I need to take it in for that. But I'm not complaining. All the issues on the older years seem to have been fixed with 05. It does not squeak, or rattle or wine or anything else thats annoying. Those run flats sure were noisy....I'm rambling, its late, its a great car.
