Welcome....do a quick search here for "sludge" and "pcv6" ..read up on these topics. Basically engines from'99-03 are prone to self destruction due to oil starvation. If the engine has had the crankcase ventilation kit "pcv6" installed it is a good sign, but not a guarantee that your engine will survive for many more miles. Uneven tire wear is another topic, with many many posts for remedies. How's the dashboard lights? missing a lot? hows the SID display in the center of the dash? missing pixels? does the heat function properly? blend door flap is another search. Coolant bypass valve, search. Sounds like a great car with low mileage, but your mechanic MUST know and understand these cars and the above issues and several others.
