LS 400 highest mileage & cost ?

Henry Kolesnik 9 May 2005 22:37:23
 I'd like to hear from some owners of high mileage cars tell us the mileage
and what major cost items outside of normal mtc such as oil, tires, etc were
experienced.

Well my 1990 LS400 has ~208K and gets 24 mpg/Highway and about 16 mpg/City.
(When new, the sticker stated 23/18 mpg). I just got passed by CT emission
testing (the NO figure was about 85% of max acceptable, but the HC and CO
were very low). Since about 180K, I have put out minimal money, except for
consumables. The brakes are due for maintenance however (and were worked on
several time over the years). Also there seems to be more of a pressure
build up when opening the gas cap lately! (ideas?) The most expensive miles
were between 100K and 160K. Replaced interior LCD clock display, dash
needles, subwoofer (speaker foam rot), Passenger door lock actuator, hood
struts, power steering pump, alternator, water pump, radiator overflow tank,
& AC conversion. It sounds like a lot, but nothing that stopped me dead in
the water. It always turns right over and doesn't show many signs of its
age or slowing down.

Normal in the spring if more volatile winter blend gas is in the tank and
warmer weather hits.
