Greetings, I have a 1999 9.5 wagon with 100K and an after-market warranty that's going to expire in a month. I'm hoping to get some advice on what should be inspected before I'm left "warranty free." The warranty has been good to me but the car has needed quite a few repairs. It's been maintained meticulously (all 30K services, 3,000 mile oil changes, etc) but here's the short list of the more major repairs it's had. Any further recommendations are appreciated on what I should have checked out before the warranty expires:

1. Throttle body at 25k, DIC at 27k (I travel with an extra)
2. Starter/Fuel pump at 37k
3. Turbo at 48k
4. CPS at 59k
5. Head gasket #1 at 58K
6. Head gasket #2 at 68k
7. Timing cover at 68k
8. Coolant Bypass valve 71.5k
9. Throttle body #2 at 72K
10. Fuel pump and flex plate at 81k
11. SID at 91k
12. Air mass meter at 88k.

Luckily I've had 12,000 miles of hassle-free driving the last year with this car but that's been rare. The big debate is sell it or keep it? At this point times are tight financially for me so I'm worried about some major repairs in the future-no doubt they are coming. Thanks, Steve
