high milage

[fireballv8]

i'm interested to know how much KM's these Commodores can do? My VS2 wagon has 465000, and the Berlina wagon has 440000.... going to drive the Berlina up to 500000 and beyond. The Accaim is now semi retired, doing a trans swap on it to keep it going, so Berlina is the main car, and i love it. Note - I only do oil change at 10,000 intervals

have you had these from low mileage? It seems that you must treat them with TLC.I have heard of ecotec v6's running to 500k+ on LPG.

Depends on how much effort you're willing to put in? They're a well built car - reliable and cheap/easy to fix when things do wear out. Hardest job is changing the engine/transmission, which really isn't that hard. And for a good second hand engine you'd only pay $100-200 anyway so realistically you can keep them going forever with very little outlay.

I had a ute that went for 400,000 km and the aircon evaporator crapped out, which is an expensive job, so that was end-of-the-road.
The 4L60E transmission should last forever if you have an external cooler and flush it now and then. They can handle an LS1, so wouldn't be stressed if you have a V6.
