I've got 140k miles on my '02 van now.


I replaced my serpentine belt and both thermostats yesterday. Both still worked but the belt was starting to make noise and the engine was running too cold for comfort in the cold weather, one of the t-stats wasn't operating properly. Other than that, no problems to speak of, it hasn't let me down.

110,000 km's. Whats that, about 65K miles?

bingo, has anything busted on it so far?

183K miles. one IP (that i know of), a t-chain (just because) overhauled the tranny to repair a weak 1-2 shift and to add "kevlar" clutches.

202k on my 94 dually. I beleive the alternator and trans have been replaced i have not had to do anything to it sence i've ime for vacume pump though. Hey anybody know if you can get a electric vacume pump? Or a cheap place to get it replaced.

'97 Sierra 2500. Bought it at 142k, now at 154k. 12k miles since October. Had to replace the serpentine belt and tensioner and the tires that came with the truck were in bad shape when I got it, so I replaced them. A/C has a bad leak that needs to be fixed, and one of the donuts on the crossover pipe is bad so I need to replace that. Other than that, no problems (except it refuses to start below freezing) and puts up with all my abuse. Also, it'll run warm when going up a hill with a trailer on back (on 70 degree days when I first got it it would run warm going up an extended steep grade by itself). May have a more pressing issue there to deal with come Spring. Don't know anything about the history before I bought it.Edited by: tdupuis

I have a 98 6.5 I had to replace the lift pump at 125,000 miles new batteries and tires just got new gauges to install. I love my truck.








oh also replaced the block heater,and that stupid heater core fitting.Edited by: peegh

188,200 miles and a rebuilt tranny, new alternator, fuel pump, PMD, and CDR, needs a new exhaust, back bumper. The first owners worked it hard. Lots of gaskets that I have not had time to change yet are leaking... starts hard but runs great!

I forgot to mention I had the rear main seal replaced under warranty, it wept a bit ever since it was new.

160,000 miles first IP replace at 27K, two PMD's since, harmonic balancer, alternator, injectors, glow plugs, cooling upgrade and timing gears and chain. Good for another 100Khttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Cool.gif
