High Mileage

Post by hemitud »

The neon just turned 200,000 this morning. Still on the factory clutch and struts. Changed the brake pads and rotors for the first time at 150,000. Getting ready for the second timing belt and water pump change.

With your commute, it's not unusual to get that type of mileage out of a clutch. The stop & go drivers and the clutch slippers are the ones that wear them out quickly.

ha..I miss it too, especially the full 360 while never lifting..at Lexington...twice.

I must say of all the vehicles I have ever owned, this neon has been the best of them all.
