JJr Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 84k on mine, replaced the wastegate actuator 6 months ago and SOA paid for my rear wheel bearing's, other than that, 4 rotor's and brake pads at 63K just because. Pull the turbo banjo bolt, replace the OEM UP with a catless, get a stage1 tune ( the car seems to like it and so do I) and enjoy. If you can't, you've got 73k it should sell fast. Go buy another Honda. My wife's 1st year 2001 Acura MDX with 155k has been amazing to date. By the way depending when your car was built, your 105 month timing belt change should have passed or be upcoming, mine will be done in the spring. More money into yes, but what else can you buy that performs like our cars for the money? GL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBlackPearl Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 I bought my 05 wagon last November with 122k. Proir to me, it had the timing belt and all the associated stuff for that, and a full brake job w/ new rotors. I think it's had wheels bearings as well. So far, I've done VCGs and just finishd replacing the turbo. My driver side window switch sticks. I get exhaust fumes in the cabin, not fuel.

lgt_nube Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Another data point. 155K miles on my 2005 LGT Wagon and, aside from routine service, replaced front control arm bushings twice (once under warranty, once on me with improved version) and now need to fix valve cover gasket oil leak. That's it... A few photos of the LGT My current ride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heiche Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 only thing my MY2005 is guilty of is unusually high smiles-per-mile. every car has their list of known problems (and usually known solutions).
