1998 GS 300 Lifespan Questions?
I have a 1998 GS 300 that requires collision repair. Before I begin to sink any money into the car I want to determine how long the car may last.
The car has approximately 125k miles and I drive approximately 15k miles per year. The 120k service was just completed. The timing belt was changed at 90k miles. Within the last 2 months I replaced the tires as well as the front brakes / rotors. The car is located in CA, so rust should not be an issue.
Here are my questions; assuming all regular service is performed:
I am wondering what mechanical problems I can expect to encounter over the next few years? What is the average lifespan of the motor (total mileage)?
What is the average lifespan of the transmission (total mileage)?
Thank you!
