I was fully expecting a major rebuild at 3500 hours based on the manual, but consistent cleaning and using only the factory grease has proven the spec sheet wrong.
Guess my 2003 car didn't get the memo. It's falling apart and I followed the manual. Maybe they meant "factory suggested" maintenance for a perfect world where it never rains.
