knik Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 I have done all maintenance religiously since I have had the car at 45K. It now has 145K. My 1997 has been a charm. i change the oil every 3500 miles and have changed all the other fluids on schedule as well. How many miles can I expect to get out of the original engine? It is not burning a drop of oil yet. I also drive like an old !Removed!.
camlex Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 I have 306,800 still runs great. burns 1 qts. between oil change @ 5,000. I drive high speed & long distance. Make sure you do change TB on time.(90K) Hope that helps.

Based on what you have said.....you should enjoy at least another 145k miles. B) Enjoy.
