Of course it couldn't have been a cheap problem

Cracked radiator. They may be able to get the part today; if not, not sure what I'm going to do. Timing belt ought to've been replaced 30K miles ago too, but that's not happening today. Oh yeah, and the valve stem seals are definitely leaking. Cha-ching. [Edit: Valve cover gaskets, I misheard what was said. Much cheaper, and will be done with the timing belt.]

Happy Friday. :-P

136k miles and it's not had significant problems other than this

Shhhhh! (*through gritted teeth*) Don't praise the machine.

It's okay, I'm getting it a new timing belt, a new radiator, a new water pump, and possibly getting the valve stem seals replaced, as those are apparently leaking. The cash offerings to the machine will be plentiful.
