The title says all.
im currently passing 100,000km (=lil over 60,000 miles) and i need to decide whether to sell or keep. The entire hesitation is from the fact that im moving back to Korea for a year or two. I might bring the fx with me or might have to sell it here for crappy price. Minor problems won't be a big deal here, but price for everything, even for just the oil change is jacked up there. Taking consider my fx is fairly old (03), i don't pay whole lot of tax than i thought. So my only concern for now is, until how much milage/ kilometers is the fx reasonably problem free? I want to hear this based on your experience, not like "japanese cars are proly good till 200,000km" or anything like that. I don't want to spend some thousands every couple of months fixing minor problems. Any input, advise welcomed.
TIA!
 
Well i was actually thinking of getting a newer fx (06~08) in Korea if i get paid well with mine here. But yeah..who knows what will happen? taking it with me will gurantee further driving of fx, so it might be a good strategy. Im just worried that i might be spending way too much money since my fx is already too old. How much km in yours Brandy?
 
I have 82,000 miles on mine so far and not one real problem as to engine or tranny.
 
my 04 has 79k miles... personally put 35k on it in 2.5 years... no issues with anything so far.... warranty runs out soon
 
So far Doc. has the most? for 82000miles?
dayummm i never liked american unit, but with the mile unit, numbers are much smaller. I want to convert my km to mile :wink:
Thanks everyone for the input.
 
Mine is over 100K KM as well. Not much of major issue. Mainly just some squeak from the interior (I am just picky about interior noise). Everything else is just fine. If you are looking for a better drive quality, then get a new set of strut and spring, and change the battery. You will feel like your car is new.

Regular maintenance has be done regularly (60K) to extend the life time of your car.

For high mileage car, I would suggest use thicker engine oil. The gap between your pistons and the engine body has now become larger due to wear, so thicker oil will prevent the scenario of burning engine oil. It is not necessary, but just what I am doing with my car now.
 
Thanks everyone for the input.
However im still not sure since everyones pretty much at the same level as i am.
Could anyone with huge km/mile record hop in?
BTW, the cost for the transport, tax and everything else will cost me about $6000 USD.
