Default Car hit 150K miles today.

I bought it 2 years ago with 70K miles. Besides mods, maintenance has included wear items (front and rear brakes, oxygen sensor, tires. oil, air and cabin filters, plugs) timing belt at 80K, switch out all fluids, all 4 side blades rusted off, misc vacuum leaks, 2 front control arms, right front wheel bearing, leaking windshield washer pump, exhaust leak at flex pipe.

So far, pretty good. I figure my vagcom has saved me thousands in pointing me to minor problems.

Wow! Good job on keeping up on the maintnance. Almost time for another T-belt! By the 4 side blades, do you mean the upper part of the lowers? my rear right one looks like its starting to come off in one spot. How do you fix that anyway? Bondo-then reapply?

I would like to know which user on this forum has the most miles on their 96 or newer Audi, and what they have done to it.

I am sure there are a few with even more than 150000 miles.

Ross tech is the distributor.

The lower rubber ones rusted off. They are only 25 dollars each.

The control arms were the driver's side upper front and rear. Checked the tie rods and it looks like I'm due for a passenger side one in the near future.

My 92 Camry had 320K miles when I donated it. But 150K miles in an Audi has been more fun than all those miles in the Toyota.
