I just jacked one wheel up, crawled under and pulled the drain plug. Took 30 seconds.

I don't know which years had engine problems, if any. My 05 has a few issue areas according to Consumer Reports but I've had few problems and none major. I love the sound of the engine, personally, and it handles like a dream.

I don't remember if my 02 had a plastic window but my 05 has glass.
