Got the service records today and.......
not much has gone wrong in 4 years and 26,000 miles with my 2002 E320. One instrument bulb, air flow meter contact fault, and mass air flow sensor. The cat converter is being fixed on the 19th. So, doesn't seem to bad compared to some major issues many of you have had.
The 2002 Hundai Elantra I bought my daughter new, now has 41,000 miles and not one warranty item yet, only oil changes at Jiffy Lube and my 98 Accord with over 100K miles still has not had one warranty issue yet either.
I feel fortunate.

high compression?
L6 gas engine.
head gasket went at 53k miles, i think cylinder 6 had the leak.
trans fluid level is fine, and the color is also good.
