I think your airbag light is on
Congrats on the 100k. My car just turned 150 back a month or so ago...

Yep... The airbag light is most definitly on... I just couldn't be bothered to take it to the dealership and spend $100 for them to check everything over then turn the light off... Not worth it to me... I replaced all the parts with working parts so there is no reason for me to really care... Now the next time the car is in for a check-up, I may have them do it...
Funny enough, that is the only light I have ever seen on the dash of my svx (besides the usual start-up procedure when all of them come on)....

I predict your check engine light will come on tomorrow
...that is if the light isn't burned out. Congrats on the milestone.

This occasion is almost as large as that picture.
I know it hurts now, but after another 2k you start to appreciate a well-running high-mileage engine.

Congrats on the 100K, it probably happens once in a life in this car.
If the airbag light is ON, do you think your airbags are still definitely working? PS: You don't need the automatic-shift indicator on your dash now!

Ho, I took pics at 60mph before...
My teal svx is@her 70k, with my rate on this car, another 10, 20, 30yrs...it won't touch 100k for sure... PS: but I drive easily around 3000miles/month, for sure more than 3000miles if I drive out of town one or two times...

I turned over a couple major milestones at relative speeds. I turned 100k over at 100mph and 110k at 110mph.
Then I stopped doing that, because it was inconvenient and stupid.
