200,000 Mile Club (1st Gen Tacomas)

271,xxx miles and the only things that have been replaced were the universal joint and the starter. might need a new timing belt, but for a 15 year old truck, i'd have to say that's pretty good.

 

From last week.

 

2001 Sienna - 220,000...but the valve cover and oil pan are leaking. I hope it doesn't cost much to fix.

2001 Tacoma DC Prerunner - 141,000 and counting.

2004 Solara 4cyl - 160k, but interior smells funny. A/C smell i think?

All are reliable, but the little things are bugging me. I'm hoping to someday hit at least 300,000 on all of them

 

In 2000 i bought a 98 Taco V6. I sold it at 150,000 miles to a lady nearby. I bump into her now and then. Last i saw her she has 220,000 miles on it. When i owned it I mostly put highway miles on it but also put it through the Toyota truck tests. Lippincott Road in Death Valley is one example of the terrain I would seek. She also is not kind on it. Living in South Central Montana there is plenty of Desert and mountain 2 track to be found.

Before I sold it, all I had ever done was change the oil regularly ( every 3,000) and replace the rear leaf springs once.

She has replaced the starter, alternator, clutch, and water pump.

Some of these motors ( 5VZFE ) have well over 300,000 miles on them now.

And if you are looking at 4 cylinders, well, I have an 85 with 310,000 original miles on it and have only replaced the alternator, clutch and more recently the clutch slave cylinder and water pump

 

made it.

 

^ taken while going 75 mph?

love it

 

lol yea i was headed home from work on the interstate and noticed that i had hit 200k.

 

No major issues, just maintainance.

 

Not my Toyota but I hope my 2nd Gen goes this many miles.

My 2004 mercedesbenz sprinter.

 

for all you guys with over 200,000 miles, how many of you had the fuel pumps go out ? and if so, when ?

 

195k! ill be there soon!

 

at 276xxx and not one fuel pump... or anything actually. Bone stock, just brakes tires, plugs, filters and fluids. Needs belts, a little concerned about the timing belt.

 

is the timing belt original?!

 

^x2 lol. Are the v6 interference type?

 

they're not, but still that's a lot of miles!

 

I've still got 60,000 miles to go before 200,000.

 

I don't know if this guy has already posted in here but someone start a 300 or even 400 k club

I'm still on my original fuel pump. I thought mine was getting old at 275,000...guess not.

 

I have been told that it was changed about 100k, at the normal maintenance interval, but no one is sure and there is no documentation. I had a friend who had is original timing belt replaced after 290k on his 03 v6 and it looked completely fine still.
When I have the money it will be changed.

 

usually the water pump starts leaking before the belt goes.
