fastbird232 Posted September 18, 2006 Report Posted September 18, 2006 I have a 1999 Alero LD9 car with 196,000 miles on it. You win. Quote
slick Posted September 18, 2006 Report Posted September 18, 2006 I hope to reach 300,000km on my car... I'm only at 238,000 right now. Considering I'm lucky to drive 15k a year, I'll be lucky if I reach 250,000km before I get pissed with this car. lol Just keep driving it. My Lumi had 245,000 klicks when I got it, and in the 6 months I've had it, it's already nearing the 257,000 klick mark. I just hope my alternater or timing belt don't blow up anytime soon, cause their both getting due. Follow my alternator repair sequence in the FAQ section. It makes it really easy to do. My Acura has 160,000 miles (258,000 km). As long as I keep up on maintenance, I should be able to hit 225-250,000 miles (360-400,000 km) on it before doing a Type II engine swap. Quote
IRONDOG442 Posted September 18, 2006 Report Posted September 18, 2006 Nah Anthony you win, the car I mentioned is pictured here before I cut the rear quarter off for another Alero I have. [attachment deleted by admin] Removed to free up storage space. Quote
fastbird232 Posted September 18, 2006 Report Posted September 18, 2006 How's the LD9 holding up after all those miles? Mine's alright, except for this nagging high idle at startup (which is going to be murder on the engine in the winter). Quote
IRONDOG442 Posted September 18, 2006 Report Posted September 18, 2006 It held up great it looks new under the hood, I am impressed with it, if you need a spare I will sell you this one for $200 Quote
fastbird232 Posted September 18, 2006 Report Posted September 18, 2006 I'll definately keep it in mind. Quote
Puggsley456 Posted September 18, 2006 Report Posted September 18, 2006 My cutlass has 260,000 Km's. I've had it almost 6 years and I bought it at 235,000...lol Quote

ihateallmustangs Posted September 21, 2006 Author Report Posted September 21, 2006 Thats what i was thinking there is no reason for his car NOT to make it to 300,000+ with proper maintence. These motors even respond well without regular maintence. Quote
Crazy K Posted September 22, 2006 Report Posted September 22, 2006 And Crazy K, are you meaning Drive Train? or Drive Chain? Both do exist after all.. Oops! I meant drivetrain! Quote
