My speed sender went out a year ago, and Im too cheap to fix it, so my car has stayed at 153k for a while. I have logged most of my mileage since then, but I wonder if I should reset the odometer to the correct mileage when I fix the speedometer.

kingrye Jun 28, 2002 10:48 AM

i got ******234,000******* miles and im rolling
hell yea
next stop turboville

All of you posting with the high mileage stories but are all 5 speeds. Are there any autos with high mileage and no transmission problems? I am looking at getting a 94 auto but I am reading about a lot of trans. problems, but then I think...this board consists of a small percentage of total maxima owners and the majority of users on here don't exactly "baby" their cars. Just wondering if that could have any effect on the auto trans. looking bad?

I've got a 93 SE auto that just broke the 100K mark about a month ago. It's driven normally - not raced, but no granny driving either - for all its life. The only tranny issue I've had (knock on wood) is that a plastic grommet broke that cost me $40 to have fixed. Make sure the tranny fluid is regularly changed and get it checked the first time you notice something weid happening. The tranny will last.

don't exactly baby them? ill take a max from someone on here anyday over somebody who can't tell the spark plugs from the exhaust pipe and hasn't changed the oil since early last year. i would never do anything to hurt my baby. (though i did do a u-turn on a statehighway in NC the other day going about 40mph:D )

pmb1985 Jun 28, 2002 09:16 PM

when i first registered here, i tried the name lime, but it was taken. so i guess i'm not the lime you're looking for.

I'm the better of the two limes. :wall:

Freak, people!!....I just hit 100k 4k ago in my VE...104k if that doesn't make sense. That's on tranny #3....#2 only lasted a week because the dealership f'd up. What kinda fixes were needed for 234k+?

KaneTHS Jun 30, 2002 05:03 PM

yup, same here. my bro's first car, 90 max gxe, had a crappy tranny...rebuilt 2x i think, and still slipped. blah.
i dunno how many clutches this 93 se 5sp has been through...but since i've been driving it for the past 6 months, i think i need another clutch by the end of summer.

Alix85 Jul 6, 2002 06:50 PM

Ghost face Max Jul 6, 2002 06:57 PM

Man all of you guys are rolling and no problems, Man that's great to hear!!!!!!

MadMax10 Jul 6, 2002 07:09 PM

i am glad to hear this considering my max is my first car and i will need it to last in order to save some money. My odometer stopped working at 79,000 but i estimate it to be around 110,000.

ron4291 Jul 7, 2002 08:20 AM

If your trying to say your VE is faster than my VG,
you are dreaming! I eat VE's for breakfast! It is singly one of the worst motors nissan ever produced in M/O/P! you'd have a better chance beating me if you had a lot of nos!

nstymax93 Jul 7, 2002 09:02 AM

I have 164,000 miles on my 93' VE

Hahahaha, Put down the pipe bro. Ask any member about the VG vs VE. The VG gasses out on the top end and the VE keeps pulling.

PuMa Jul 7, 2002 05:20 PM

I got a 90 auto with 179,000 miles and no problems at all .So far

ron4291 Jul 8, 2002 01:29 AM

Mine doesnt top out till about 151 miles per hour, so if you have a ve that can top my top end! Do like the rock and just bring it!
