How Many KM's?
 
How many KM's have you put into your ride? How is your car holding up? What's your secret? :D

Mine:
2003 Honda Accord V6 Coupe 6MT

120,000 KM's

Runs just as good as the day I bought it (new). (many people think my car is only 1-2 years new LOL) :D

The only thing I've had to fix was the power door lock on the passenger side in the 8 years I've own this car. Honda reliability FTW! :D

I use Mobil One synthetic oil and Honda OEM filters once to twice a year and thats it. :D

1995 BMW 530i

when i bought it 4 years ago - 150,000kms
now - 189,000kms

i've done lots of work, a top end rebuilt, but it still runs like a champ and is super clean. This car is my baby!

my secret is lubro moly synthetic oil. I've taken the valve covers, oil pan, cylinder head, and probably more. The engine is super clean inside with no signs of sludge. Also keep the coolant flushed regularly. Not intentionally but because of the odd leaks, i've flushed the coolant about 6 times since i took ownership.

My super high mileage fleet:
1986 944 turbo - 240,000 km
1992 968 - 260,000km
1999 528i - 320,000km

No catastrophic issues with any of them. In fact I just drove the BMW to Calgary and back this summer. Just regular maintenance and the odd leaky hose or leaky radiator or sensor that needs to be replaced. And if I take the time to vacuum and wax them, they look like they have 100,000 or less km on them.

99' Honda Accord 4Cyl VTACK.

100000k it was 94000 when i got it last spring.

My secret?

My car was never abused by its owners and everything was done on time, the previous owner was a old chinese lady she bought the car brand new and all she did was go to TNT and church and back home and sometimes she drove to LA to visit her children. She brought the car to the dealer for all services and now that i own it i always baby it and do all the maintainance myself.

Regular fluid changes and filter changes, pretty much it. Only big cost came around 80,000km, driver seat-belt replacement. SRS light kept going off.

I've never needed to replace a part due to mechanical failure, I just keep up with basic maintenance.

Mechanically, perfect.
If people would stop door-dinging, or scrapping my car, it would be perfect.

Oil change every 5000km, always Chevron 94. :)
