Who has the Most Miles on their xD?
#81
Update: I know this is an older thread but just turned 345k.....Not as peppy as she used to be but still hanging in there. Wrestling with a plug and possible coil issue on another thread. Goes through about 1 qt oil every 3500 miles but no leaks or oil spots. When I drain she's down almost 1. Probably rings are wearing. I did start using 1 qt Lucas oil during changes hoping to give the motor a wee bit more compression. Long and short, her years and miles may be starting to catch up. Even the most well maintained engines will eventually give way to wear and tear. Already decided I'll do a rebuild if she goes. There is no used car I could get for the same cost to rebuild that would be nearly as reliable and not inheriting someone else poorly maintained money pit.

2009 Scion xD Miles
My 2009 xD has 88,010 miles today. The car always gets Mobil 1 synthetic oil changes every 5,000 miles and 25,000 mile transmission dope changes along with other general maintenance, e.g., air filters, radiator hoses, radiator coolant, thermostat, brakes, and serpentine belt. I replaced the water pump (precautionary) at 80,000 miles with an Aisin. That was a tough job to do alone since the Aisin is wider than the stock pump. Had to remove a motor mount, jack up engine carefully, and use a board to rock the engine up and sideways to get pump positioned. I do regular maintenance and expect the motor to outlive me. I'm 63. We have almost 347,000 miles on a 2004 Mitsubishi Endeavor and expect it to run much longer.

Not referring to my newly acquired 2008 xD but was the motivation to acquire her (even though I have 2 fully working vehicles).
A friend's father has 357K mi on his 2006 xA.
Orig motor, trans & head gasket.
He replaced a water pump, radiator and alternator over the years.
Tiny surface rust developing in the corners below the taillights.
To look at the car (and the narrow 15" wheels), you'd never imagine it had that much mileage.

I currently have 216K+ miles on my 2008 xD. I replaced rear hub bearings/ABS sensors, struts and brakes @ 172K miles; I replaced front hub bearings, stabilizer links, struts and brakes @ 211K miles. Oil change (Mobil1) every 4K miles. Currently dealing with timing chain tensioner issue (at least I hope that's all it is). Oh yeah, I had to replace the alternator once, too.

I have 2 xD's
I have a 2013 base model currently with 247k that I put on her as a Commuter for work. I love her so much I spent 4 years looking for the right one to add to my belt and found him about a month ago. It's a 2013 10 series, 950 of 1000, and got him with 63k on it. I have never had a problem with the first. I love Xena the xD and will keep her for local driving. I am now putting Xavier to work for my commuter. I know what I like and now have two xD's 😏

2013 xD
207104. No major issues. Just replaced your normal wear and tear parts like tie rods, ball joints, shocks, and bearings. Met someone who use their xD for priority delivery delivering small packages. He said his finally gave out at 607,000. Keep up with the maintenance and many happy Miles ahead.

Just about to cross 113,000 miles with my 2013. Bought it a few months ago and only put about 700 miles on it so far. Runs good, but I have a lot to do in the way of maintenance and modifications. Already changed the transmission fluid and serpentine belt, but I need to clear up the headlights and replace spark plugs. It's a great car to drive around.
