Thanks again for the info, guys. So on the three major possible issues, the symptoms, and the solution: 1. Gauge cluster: stepper motors can individually go bad, but there is a TSB or recall and the cluster will be replaced at no cost. 2. Front diff bearing failure: there will be a "groaning" noise coming from the front if they are starting to go. Is there a TSB or recall for this, or is fixed at the owner's expense? 3. Steering clunk: There will be a clunking noise and/or vibration from the steering wheel when turning or possibly in a straight line. Solution is to replace or lube a part, and I'm assuming that is at the owner's expense based on the petitions for a recall?

Thanks for the info, guys. On the front Diff, is it pretty obvious when the bearings are going, noise and/or feeling? How do I test for the steering clunk, and what needs to be fixed if it has it? And does the cluster completely go, or just part of it? Thanks again for the help, Benjamin

I'm looking at a 2003 SS that is for sale close to me with 60,000 miles, what are the major problems/issues to look for with a 2003? What major service needs to be completed at this mileage? What things go wrong with higher mileage ones after this point? It looks like there are some recalls on it, what recalls should be completed on it? If there is an existing thread/FAQ with this info, please point me to it. Thanks, Benjamin
