Known issues on the 2003 Spider. The 2003 Spider's 3.0L engine has two cylinder banks topped by double overhead camshafts, breathes naturally and runs on gasoline, so engine, fuel, ignition and cooling work takes up much of its service. As a convertible in Base trim, it also needs body and electrical attention. The manual covers those systems, and the transmission, brakes, suspension and steering, with procedures, specifications, torque values, wiring diagrams and diagnostics.
