Something about power steering I think can give hassle. But that might be boys being hard on them around a cone

Brakes are the weak point on the IS but maybe alot to do with these cars lying about not getting drove these days. Mine never misses a beat drives like new everytime also returning 30-35mpg, good top end in these cars from 4th up as i gave an ep3 a scare one day wasnt pulling away to much!
