I just got a 2005 Z enthusiast with 70,000 miles on it, it is in great condition but after reading more on theese forums I am getting concerned about the high milage, is this something i should be concerned about?? If I run into problems due to the milage about how much would they beto fix ( I know thats a pretty broad question)
Thanks

 

thats not high mileage, high mileage is over average and your just about at average...

Quiksilver's Advice: start off by not worrying so much about your car and enjoy driving it!!!

 

you probably need to pull out your engine *right now* to be safe

 

I wouldn't be worrying till over double that mileage as long as everything is maintained like it should be and you don't run the hell out of it every single day

 

Just a suggestion. Put a subject in the subject line like

Squeaking brakes

instead of

Help

Need help immediately

or

If you don't help right away I will die!

 

What did you read that indicated these cars were not reliable with high mileage? This forum usually states just the opposite.

 

Okay great thanks guys thats good to hear, I was reading a forum about how many miles people have on their 2003's and it made me realize that mine was much higer then average but everything else should be fine then i guess, thanks

 

The same as with any other vehicle. As the mileage gets higher, the owner has a responsibility to ensure maintenance is up to date. Maintenance is alot more than just changing oil, btw.

 

Welcome to the forums. Enjoy your stay and feel free to ask for help and information. At this time though, I am going to have to ask you to start a new thread with an appropriate title. A title that pertains to the thread content.


Thank you,
