Miles! Kilometers sux.

I have 2008 Ford Edge & have 360,000km. Original engine & transmission.

My friends 2006 ridgeline with almost 300k miles on it says otherwise

Older cars have less useless tech and fuel saving crap therefore more reliable and easier to repair

Once they are past like 12 years, the average lifespan, every mile you get is a bonus.

I love my '98 Accord. It has 367k miles all original.

My friend has an original motor and transmission 2000 Camry and my mum has a 2012 Camry with 250k on the odometer also original engine and transmission Both ancient cars Both dead reliable

You are talking crap

well i thought you gonna complain about Trabant,UAZ, VAZ BUS whatever Moskvich or LADA DACIA and similar POS :)))

My 2007 honda civic has 220k km on the clock. I tool it on a 4000km road trip without a problem. Part of it was in Germany and the car did 230kmh with a bit left to go

Uhhhh, that's a lie, a 20-30 yrs old, well maintained Japanese car is way more reliable than any new modern cars, built with recycled material and "state of the art" tech. This video is a joke!

They are realiable if you buy it brand new and use it for years with recommended maintenance intervals. Other than that it is just gambling. You might come across a well maintaned one or ignored one.

I bought my 03 Corolla new. Now it has 268K+ miles and drives like new. But I use OEM parts and have replaced the struts/shocks and the power steering hoses. The original starter went 180K+ but I couldn't find OEM parts to rebuild it so I just had to rebuild it again. The boots went 200K+ miles but the Toyota boot kit is cheap and pretty easy. I've had to replace 3 out of 4 wheel bearings and the front ones are a pain. But this car sees lots of exceptionally high speeds. Michelins only get about half the rated miles. This car is still very reliable but who knows when the original alternator, compressor, fuel pump, and water pump will go? I know others with 400K+ miles on these parts.

I lucked out. Last year I purchased a 2001 Lexus ES300 with 115k miles from an old couple. Yes the car did need some work and some things needed replacing but as of right now I can honestly say the car feels as if it is brand new off the showroom floor. It probably rides better than most new cars. Everything depends on the previous owners and maintenance history like you said.

Here's the thing to future proof cars. After a car's obsolescence, 7 years after they stop making the model (example 1999 - 2001 Corolla) all electronic lockouts should be open sourced. This will prevent automakers from monopolizing repairs and maintenance. No one likes going to the stealership, no one. This alone will help people hold onto their cars longer and help balance the auto market industry since most cars are almost rolling desktops now!

This video makes no sense. ALL cars maintenance history matters even a 2-3yr old car. Do you buy a House without getting it professionally inspected first? Do the same with a car and they will tell you everything that's wrong with it. Older cars are way less complicated, easier and cheaper to work on. Simple mechanical parking brakes, simpler engines/transmissions, simpler electronics, etc. Any good mechanic can tell you if it was well maintained or not.

Always replacing ANY rubber components after 20+ years on any car

Have a 2002 civic ex with 319,000 miles. Still dead reliable on the original motor.

Only car i ever had that was really reliable was one i bought new and took care of. Had old Toyota,Honda,Nissan, all of them have problems of some sort.

Here we have a 2007 Jaguar XJR with 493.000km. Stock engine, never serviced more than oils, filters, belts and pumps.

The mfgs switched to cvt trans because they are cheaper to put in,if you have to baby them they are junk

Very informative and clear … thanks.

I've always changed the transmission fluid in my Fords at 100k miles. Never had any adverse effects. Never had a bad Ford transmission. I've always left the lifetime fuild alone in my Hyundais, and they have always lasted ~300k miles before I sold them.

I change my fluid every 30 minutes. You can't be too safe!

good advice

I had a CVT with 188,000 miles no problems, except that it was slow. Unfortunately the car was stolen, out ranned the police, and was totaled. The guy got away, but was later arrested at their house. 😅

ThAnks for the Information,

True. CVT is a simpler/cheaper setup than traditional transmissions hence the drive (pun intended) to sell 100% CVT in all cars.

Just a bunch of opinions not backed up by anything. BS.

You really dont have to worry about cvt gearboxes in TOYOTA AND LEXUS vehicles. Ultra reliable. They can easily do over 500 or 600k

Why are all the commentators here bundle standard CVT with E-CVT (as fitted in Toyota hybrids), surely if the e-cvt has planetary gears vs the belt on a regular cvt, the argument for long term reliability and hence maintenance and operation should be different!

I have an Audi A4 multitronic 2002 and have done 240000 km. I’ve changed the fluid once and have had no problems. Beautifully smooth.

I have a 2010 Nissan Altima 2.5 with 155k, original motor and CVT. I've flushed it (not drained and filled) every 30k miles. At 150k, I dropped and cleaned the CVT oil pan, replaced the mesh pickup filter and the cartridge filter that sits behind the cooler, and installed an external cooler that bolts on to the front of the main radiator. The CVT is still butter smooth and has no problems climbing hills in 110 degree heat at 80+ mph.

It’s simply enough to drive Honda CVT and follow Honda maintenance guide. No special treatment required.

Again - very good advice

Why bother , stick to a proper Auto gearbox..

I'm your 356th subscriber, great content!

My 2016 Toyota Corolla has 117,000 miles on it. Zero problems. Drain and fill your cvt with Toyota CVT fluid every 60,000 miles. Cheers!

Sorry, no CVT for me. No ever.

Haha no thanks, I am not buying one in the first place. POS engineering.

No speeding? So how fast is allowable? I always go 70’s & 80’s.

Very good advice - thank you

2013 patriot 184,000 ,at that Milage I had never serviced filters or fluids. That's when I had shift problems
