Goals! My 06' XA has 124,000. Trying to orchestrate some fluid changes where I am, but want to make sure it's OEM stuff

Default How many miles on your xA

2005 got it with 10k on it and have it up to 156,000. Running strong with except with a/c has no power from switches replaced blower motor and resistor but no help. Will check relays but that’s only issue. Looking forward to hitting 200k

Thumbs up Love this Baby!

193,000. 2005 Scion Xa Manual.

I bought at 159,000. The Carfax Sheet had 2 Owners and Regular Maintenance (6 pages). Test drove... I bought for Cash.
I immediately took it to my mechanic. Changed clean Oil and Filter to Mobile One Extended Performance. Matching... changed a drive belt,
exchanged Manual Gear Oil, and Coolant which was still red. Aligned 4 wheels, balanced tires (New Tigar Paws the Dealer
put on). Spark Plugs to Iridium.

Since... I've changed Oil, Filter and Air Fiter at about 6k. Last week I had a Complete Break Job as Rear Brakes were "talking". Time for that.
The Scion has never thrown an OBT2 Code (no codes on MY OBT2 testers)! Check Engine Light has never tripped. NO LEAKS OF ANY FLUIDS! Burns NO Oil between changes.
I haven't had to add any coolant to date. All other fluid levels "static" and clean.


Clutch Okay... but going to get a clutch job in a few months... because it's "time for that".

Knock on Wood... I think I can keep this baby to 400k! All my investment is basic Car Care.

I love My Little Scion Xa!

My 2004 has 166,000 and my parents' 2006 has 207,000!
The '04 is a beast, will probably never die!
​​​​The '06 hasn't fared so well (repairs have been neglected for a few years now). Wondering if it's worth it to fix, this is what the shop says needs fixing:
Sway bar links - bushings torn
New tiresOil leak front timing cover
Replace front and rear shocks
Also could use a paint job (has anyone's clear coat actually held up?), and has more than a few dents.
What do you all think? I'd be sad to see it go but where I live the repairs are going to be at least $3k (dealer quoted $6000-6500).

A/C overflow leaking water into passenger compartment fixed under warranty.

Been through a couple of front pads and rotors by now.

Changed the alternator once and power steering belt twice by now.

Also had to change the TPS due to a check engine light throwing code 0121 and0122 just recently.

Oh and obviously I've gone through some tires too...
Well... It's been a while since this car had under 200k miles! Not sure if I updated in this thread but in August of 2010 at about 143,000 miles, the original engine spun a rod bearing. Just 2 payments away from paying the car off too! I ended up swapping in a 2008 Toyota Yaris engine with under 10,000 miles on it. The wife and I then kept driving the car as a daily driver until October 2015 when it transitioned into a winter beater. Fast forward to this winter. The "to do" list kept growing and when I got around to actually addressing any of it, I found that the frame rot had become insurmountable. I almost made it to 235,000 miles (still under 100,000 miles on the new to me Yaris engine I had swapped in). The car currently sits at around 234,900 miles and almost 20 years of ownership. (Bought new in November of 2004.) I will be listing it "for sale" in that forum soon but only if someone really really wants to own #0194 of 1550 2005 Scion xA RS 1.0 with a manual transmission and a non numbers matching engine. The car would need a full restoration if it is even salvageable due to the chassis rust...
