If you've made the 100k mark on your tC, please tell!

Have you had any major issues? Minor ones? How does the engine sound and feel? Like new? A little worn? How about the rest of the car: suspension & steering, rattles & creaks?

What oil did you use, what filter, and how often did you change?

 

Considering the tC came out summer of 2004, that'd be 100k in 2 years.

Doubt anyone's driven that much.

 

I bet there's least one tC driving to Chicagoland area each workday from Wisconsin with high mileage. I got my '06 in late March and I just past 10,000 miles. 4,000 of it, is caused by me working 45 miles away from my home. I will tell you, I don't think I'll ever use rest of my free oil changes since my dealership used some cheap oil which caused my car to idle rough while waiting for long stop lights. Which I don't think that is oil is for high mileage.

Anyway, my sister owns a '04 Mitsubishi Galant. She works about 60 or 70 miles and she already put 72,000 miles on her car already. All the miles we put on our cars are highway miles.

 

There are plenty of on the road sales folks that drive over 50,000 miles a year. I was just wondering if any of them ever posted here. Maybe not, they're too busy driving all the time!

 

Well I've had my tC for 6 months and I have almost 22,000 mile! Im a Maerketing and Sale Manager and travel back and forth to S. Carolina from GA every week. So If things keep running this way I may hit 100k in 2 years!!!! BTW I have a S/C'ed tC with ZPI's 9lb pulley, not one problem either!

 

yeah im sure theres someone out there....

My last car was a 03 Mazda6 and I hit 94,000 in about 22 months...lol

 

i bought my TC Jan. of '05. i have 47K on the clock

 

hmmm.. if i still was driving my 1st tC.. combined with the mileage on my current one (minus the fact i don't drive as much anymore)... i could've gotten over 100K easy.

blah... oh well.

 

@ 81K now.. not too much longer Still runs great.

 

Good to hear Stu. You've noticed that thread about folks hearing a "vibration" at 3000-3500 rpm?

Yeah, I skimmed it over.

 

I have about 47k as well.

 

I got mine in October of '04. And people have been telling me 21,000 is a lot of milage...

 

I got mine in July of 04; I got 18K. 82K more to go.

 

95,500 more miles to go, tee hee

 

31,000 in the first 1 1/2!!! I'm well on my way!! Plus i slowed up cause we added another Scion to the family!

And summer travel has just started for me. I can only imagine if i was to take my car with on vaction when i go out west this year!!

 

How will long will our car last? 200,000? Civics last till 300,000 from what i heard.

 

hopefully at least one year longer than my payments last...which means it better last 6 years for me, then it gets traded in or sold

 

I just hit 903 tonight.


So.....99,097 miles to go.

 

lol im not even at 600 yet... its too beautiful to drive... cant i jsut let it sit there...
