The 2.5XS is a strong motor. I have a 2005 on my GS. The only problem I've had is the air pump failed and was replaced under warranty. The only drawback about the motor that I don't like is that it was put on the same frame as the 3.0 liter motors, so they are heavier than other 2.5 liter motors. I guess that would help with the duribility thou.
