129,xxx miles and counting. My last post in this thread was 11 months ago at 122,000. Less than 8,000 miles in 11 months. Of course Ive been out of work for 3 months now, and I was out on disability for a month last year as well. I put 97,000 on it in the first three years I had it. A 106 mile daily commute will do that for ya. Im glad those days are long gone.

2004 Sunfire auto, hit 70k last week. No issues. Recent ShiftPlus install. When the controller is off, the tranny slips a lot more when it shifts now then it used to. Has a slight lifter tap when the motor is first started on a chilly morning but it's been like that for, say, 35k miles so I'm not concerned. Love the car and the mileage, hate the sluggishness

2005 Cavalier - Auto - 56,000 miles.

All this under warranty before 40,000 miles. PS pump, stock cat when bad, ball joints bad, all 4 strut mounts (twice), PCM, BCM, both mirrors leaking water into the doors, weather strip around drivers window repalced, bland door actuator, cluster, stock intake broke @ pos crackcase vent tube, headlight wiring melted, dash cracked and replaced, PS res cracked, steering wheel lock broke, battery died at 10,000 miles, and some other things I can't remember...

After the warranty, its been normal maintenance. The dash did crack again though lol.

143,xxx on the motor and tranny. Clutch is original! The only things ever done to the car, mechanically, were an AC fix at around 60k, brakes, and tires. I added 17" rims and a Magnaflow cat-back exhaust at about 80k.

197,000 on '03. Tranny is getting a bit rough, a/c compressor is out, and major headlight issues (replaced very soon) .

This car is a tank... been rear ended 6 times, no damage. Wife wrecked passanger front and rear panels, had to replace rear axle at 135k. Little body work and still shining good.

Blower motor for engine fan burned out twice, once at 88k, the other at 160k.
Drive belt replaced (was the easiest belt change I've ever done) 175k - this was standard maint as the belt was cracked

Other than that, engine runs great.
