2004 with 34,200.
Anyone have lower mileage with a 2004?
6,500 miles in 17 months since I owned it = Rough guess 4,500 miles a year.

yep, they should last the life of the car. your secondary chain tensioners however...might need replacement soon.

Bought mine in Sept 07 w/ 34K on it....now has 62K. I drive a ton for work and it sees a lot of use....I've even got two other vehicles I drive some.

Been a good car other than never being able to 100% figure out the alignment. I've got her third set of shoes on the way, and just put new brakes on a few weeks ago.

Getting a little nervous about all this timing chain stuff I'm hearing......

For longevity sake;
How often do you folks change the oil? And do you use 87 or better octane?

'04 SE with 77,659 miles. Bought in Feb. 2007 with 46,495 miles. I'm hoping to keep this car until at least 2015... Currently using Mobil 1 with 5000 mile intervals, but Castrol Edge might be my next choice. I would always put 87 in my car, but started with 89 for the past month.
