I'm debating what to replace my 08 GTI SE 155 with. I like the handling of the 155 but have had issues with its reliability. 4 hours of run time is great though! I have a 215 HP GTX and love the performance but don't like the fuel burn (2-2.5 Hours Run time). Anyone have a GTR with the 215? What's the endurance? How's it handle? I'm also considering the GTI limited; if anyone has some feedback that'd be great.
 
What were the GTI reliability issues ?

It's been eating wear rings. Every time it's out of the water after jumping a wake or if you do a spin turn, it makes a loud squeak which I believe is the impeller rubbing on the wear ring. Recorded a movie of it and showed the dealership who sent it to Canada and they said its a normal noise. They insist I ingest sticks which is causing the damage but I run my other wave runner in the same lake and in the same way and have had no issues. They've checked out everything and haven't found anything wrong with it. Otherwise, it's been a good machine... It's an '08 GTI SE 155.
