Clutch Wear:

Clutch wear is generally considered normal for performance applications, but premature wear can result from abuse or towing.

Suspension Components:

Worn suspension bushings, ball joints, and wheel bearings are common wear items, particularly on performance models driven hard.

Oil Consumption:

Some EJ engines, especially with higher mileage, may exhibit increased oil consumption.
